Every team's position rank since 2002

According to /u/the_fuzzy_stoner over at Reddit.

You could argue how he came to his results, but if you look at them, they sure as hell paint a picture of the Giants.
Which Position group has been the worst on your team since 2002? - ( New Window )
They DO...

The sins of the OL of the last 8 years are erased by the miracles of the lines Tiki/Jacobs/Bradshaw ran behind.

LB exactly where we expected. Besides Antonio Pierce, poo.

To me, the surprise is Cornerback - I'd have expected top 10 there.

And looking at that list, yeah, you can see why Brown's fans are so stoked for Beckham.

Real good corner was Webster before Jackrabbit.
The talent level has been down

On this team for nearly 15 years. For as good as our OL was from 2004-2008, we still have had shitty OLs for the majority of that time period.

Defense has been terrible. Specials have been as well.
This is pretty cool

and to the surprise of many here, the Giants have actually been sitting pretty with Eli for years.

Also, the OL seems to be overshadowing a defense that has sucked just as bad, if not worse, for years.

Funny (not really) how closely that coincides with Reese's tenure at GM.
DL is only surprise.

Thought they were superior for most of that period.

From 2008-2017... there was 1 player picked from round 3 and on who had a positive impact on the team. Care to guess who it was?
Our DL is ranked 10th...

...When you consider we had Strahan, Tuck, Osi and the 2011-version of JPP, think about how freakin' terrible everyone else must have been to only be ranked in the top 10.

I cheated, but it's pretty obvious when you cheat.
Was it Manningham?

Or was he a 2nd rounder?

The last pick of the 3rd round in 2008, unless there were comp picks given out after MM.

I would have classified Jonathan Goff as a plus player, and he was a 5th round selection, and of course we had a great UDFA signing in Victor Cruz. But holy shiiite the 3rd round and later results under Reese were bloody awful, truly horrendous, and then we we whiffed badly on back to back 1st rounders Flowers and Apple the friggen' roof caved in. What a shit pile of stink Gettleman inherited!
