Giants added 1.26 wins for 2016 from the draft alone

if we knew how to close out games = 12-4!

the better I think our draft could be. Apple is the key but I think that we could possible have 3-4 starters in this draft class in the near future.

Apple
Sheppard
Thompson
and possibly
Goodson

Perkins very well could be a solid tandem guy in our backfield.

With Adams I need to see him in action to know whether he is could be a starter.

hope we stay healthy, with this schedule, we can make the playoffs

No, if they had enough TALENT to close out games they could have won more

wonderful

Shouldn't it be a zero-sum game?

For 2016...the Eagles probably. They drafted a QB (even the best have growing pains) and not much else.

Considering the Cowboys 2nd round pick is unlikely to play this season, they likely added less wins then you'd expect from a team picking 4th. (though the health of Romo/Dez likely adds wins)

Basically any team that added less than the "average" amount of talent.

The average of the 32 teams (counting the 3 "N/A" as zero) is 0.55.

So according to this "analysis", the league average is a 1/2 a win due to the draft, so you have to subtract 0.55 from each team's "added wins". The Giants therefore, added 0.7 wins.

Washington added zero wins (0.54 - 0.55), Philly lost a half a win (0 - 0.55) and Dallas added less than half (0.92 - 0.55).

So the Giants gained relative to all NFC East teams.

I guess this is an OK article in the slow times in May.

So were 7-9 now

That adjustment was for the draft only....

The addition of free agents should be another couple games....

Luck and staying away from injuries will determine how many more....

was such a nightmare. Legitimately 5 games where the game was in hand - and lost due to some collapses not seen in a good while. Looking back, it was a clusterfuck of poor game management and defense all around.

I don't know what's worse, people who create this crap or people who read it...

how did you get this by telepathy?

Anything less than a perfect 16-0 regular season will be a disappointment.

16-0 regular could have a "non happy ending".

On paper only! We need to produce.

Absolutely correct but there are no mathematical equations to back these silly projections.

don't think you can look at it like this. You just have to add talent at the spots that you need it. This stuff by Prediction machine is useless.

Apple can't be any worse than Amukamara was his first season with us in which we won a super bowl with him as CB2.

for Vernon, JPP, Snacks, and JJ?

Why is this a thread and why TF did
I actually post on it ....
