Giants Way Forward

This is a great article breaking down the GM Candidates and a realistic look at who to talk to/who would be the hot names. Also gives an honest assessment of what went down the past few years.


Giants Way Forward:Before Coaches, They'll Look at GMs - ( New Window )
Disagree about the first point.

I don't think it's a lock that Webb should be given starts this season. His development has arguably been hamstrung by McAdoo's bizarre strategy, and I don't think that throwing him into this putrid offense will give the Giants a legitimate look at what they have. Even if he does get some snaps and looks great, that should in no way prevent the Giants from drafting another quarterback if the opportunity is there.
Completely agree with this article.

I don't think it's worth starting Eli Manning at this point. Nothing will come of it. Like the writer states, we already know what we have in Manning and Geno Smith. Did the Cowboys know what they had in Dak Prescott before giving him a shot? Or Russell Wilson in Seattle? Neither of them were top round draft picks. Prescott was slated to be the #3 all season before the injuries to their 1 and 2. I can understand the loyalty to Eli Manning and all that he represents, but that cannot influence the decisions that are best for the franchise.

Eli has not been good the last 2 years. He was not good when we were healthy. Yes, the O line has not been good either, but who's has? Other quarterbacks play with lines that are bad too and they manage to make plays. If Webb goes out and plays like complete dogshit, what have you lost? Nothing. You've at least had some time to evaluate him, see what he does/doesn't do well, and decide where he may fit in in the future.
Good article

Lofty article.

Wow, that Peter King is one smart guy. He agrees with me 100%.
Don't play Eli this year
Shaw should be #1 coach prospect
Take time on GM search
Thanks for sharing

I agree that GM is more important than HC so don't hurry the selection of the former thinking by doing so you may miss out available coaches.
