The 2019 Giants have probably 10 players on their active roster that will be on the team in 2 years. They have 12 picks in 2019

Engram
Hernandez
Tomlinson
Hill
Carter
Zeitler
Peppers
Barkley
Solder
Beal

The Giants are at the bottom right now, but the NFL can change super fast. With 2 good drafts and some smart FA signings, we can be on the rise pretty quickly.

I trust Gettleman to evaluate personnel, I think we should all let this play out over the next 2 years and see if this plan actually ends up working.

Yep, 7+ years is definitely a quick turnaround

Yes and the key is getting your young QB

If they commit to either Haskins or Lock and move forward with a good plan and with all the cap space in 2020 this could be a decent team within 2 years.

They got their QB

and a potential elite edge rusher with back to back #1 picks. There�s the big difference.

Beal hasn�t played

a single down in the NFL. It�s cool that the staff likes him. But we have no clue if he�s even gonna be a decently good NFL player.

This 2019 team this very second

IS nowhere near as talent deficient as that 2016 browns team. Get a grip.

It's a young man's game.

And Eli is a field general. I think we're on the rise right now. We can field a good roster and we're constantly improving. The off-season is very young. We may surprise some people this year. Especially if everyone thinks we're in "rebuild mode".

Kool Aid that you guys are drinking.

What he is saying

and I mentioned in another thread is the Giants are in the same spot as the Browns where two years ago. Except the Giants have Barkley. Now the Giants have a ton of picks and two first rounders plus most likely will pick early next season. Also we should have a lot of money next season to fix some holes. We just need to find the QB of the future.

And we could be in the same spot as the 2018 Browns if management didn�t try the old �one more run with Eli�. That�s the problem.

Lol, exactly, what a shit show. I think our buddy Mara told Gettleman to try to win one last SB with Eli last year. He tried to patch the roster with tape and string and the marginal talent like Flowers at RT, Omameh, etc. didn�t step up. Once it was obvious they were going nowhere the fire sale began. Snacks, Apple, now Vernon, not resigning Collins, and the biggest trading Beckham. They will of course never say it but we are obviously in full rebuild mode now. It�s clear he is just churning the whole roster at this point. Hope it works, but we are in for at least another year or two of crap. I just hope they can turn it around in time to actually use Barkley�s talent.
