Before Gettleman, the Giants were drafting playmakers on the offense and plugging gaps in the lines. Now the team has more invested in the o line but is lacking in playmakers at the wr position, though gettleman did draft SB. Obviously the o line is far from a finished unit and still struggles lightly.
Do y’all think it is better to build from the inside out or choose a more high flying approach to an offense? What about on defense; a solid run stuffing defense that controls the tempo or one that that thrives off of pressure and takeaways?
There are limited resources in football. How would you build a team? Does the presence of a few pieces like Daniel Jones change the route you take? Do you focus on offense or defense?
For me, with the offense as it is, I try to beef up o-line and add a playmaker wr to keep defenses honest and try for a dominant unit, and then plug in pieces to make a slow improvement to the defense.
Without good pass rushers, the defense will always stagnate and become one dimensional, but think we need so much work on defense and that 3-4 pieces on offense and some experience can transform our offense into a solid to great unit. What do you all think?
On defense, our line is respectable, but that's about it. The next 4 in the 3-4, and the final 4, can be picked apart by any respectable high school coach.

Peppers and Jenkins are fine.
Connelly is a good player too. You add an edge and an ILB and resign Williams and golden and this defense will be much better
Gettleman has 2 top 60 picks on the line, 2018 Hernandez at 34 and 2019 Lawrence at 17. He aslo used the 2nd overall pick on a skill player, and the 6th overall pick on a skill player, and the 29th pick on a CB. Not really a whole lot different in terms of placing a premium on the Lines if you ask me.

Yeah - valid point. Resources were spent, but squandered
