Very Solid Off Season

Rafflee : 4/8/2020 2:32 am
They've done well and improved the team. They're getting productive guys at gut spots.

8-10 Wins
New regime with, what’s looking to be,

Very little offseason. We’ll be lucky to hit 5-7 wins. Just my honest opinion.

Let’s see how this

I agree with this. New regime new playbook a lot of new faces. Going to be hard to gel with no offseason programs and who knows what training camp will look like.
8-10 wins? While I disagree whole heartedly, I applaud your optimism

Here’s to hoping you’re right and I’m wrong for a change.
Alot of people

yeah and the "gel" comment above always makes me laugh. I suppose the Bucs should not even show up to play any games this year. No off season program and an old QB coming into a new system with no time to "gel" with his WRs.
Can we wait to the draft  
ZogZerg : 4/8/2020 7:36 am : link
before the predictions?
Still a long way to go in the off season.
I see 6 wins  
section125 : 4/8/2020 7:38 am : link
at best.

As all have stated, new coaches, new schemes, lack of impact players.
Remember

We are not the only team with no off season programs. Everybody starts from the same line. I expect 7-8 wins.

But other teams do not have a new head coach so remain in the same system. And other teams that like us have a new head coach have as their head coach someone with previous experience at being an NFL head coach.
4 wins.  
Big Blue '56 : 4/8/2020 7:59 am : link
4-2 and in playoffs
I’m just waiting for the threads

“If Lawrence is available, What do we do with Jones”? Cause they will be coming.

exactly... there also will be more free agents available
It is  
PaulN : 4/8/2020 9:45 am : link
So different then any other off season that it is hard to predict.
I'd agree, so far so good  
BillT : 4/8/2020 9:48 am : link
New starters at every level of the defense along with the young players we have. I think the D has potential to be a pretty good unit. The OL is still a mess and improving it has been a stated objective of the GM. Let's see if that gets done.
I think the  
family progtitioner : 4/8/2020 9:53 am : link
offense has potential but the D will be the death of the season again. 5-6 wins but hopefully show some signs of being a tougher team
Here's a point I haven't seen ANYBODY make  
Dave on the UWS : 4/8/2020 10:04 am : link
Judge has been a teacher, a REAL teacher, one who had to be flexible and improvise. I think, with his leadership, the Giants will be one of the better teams with "virtual learning" while waiting COVID out. No it doesn't make up for in person off season, but I think they will be more organized and further along than people will think. All teams are going to be really challenged this year. The ones that are better prepared before training camp, will likely have more success. Plus, he has such an experienced staff, once they get their hands on the players, I expect good things.

Yup. It's not how you start, it's how you finish, and the Giants do still have a long way to go before they're finished building their team.
I think the Giants  
Dnew15 : 4/8/2020 10:58 am : link
best get during the offseason has been Judge.

I'm not a 100% sure the talent level on this team is significantly better than where it was last year at this time.

Hopefully the FA signings are good fits for what the coaches plan on doing.

That's my hope - but I can't say anything with any sort of degree of certainty.
I hope you’re right  
mittenedman : 4/8/2020 11:32 am : link
but I’m not seeing a solid offseason yet.

We’ve really done almost nothing to add any talent to a largely talentless roster.
I’m not an All Pro or Pro Bowl guy but this team on paper you wouldn’t think would win many games - and they don’t.

I don’t see any reason to think this team - on paper - has much of a chance.
Thrilling assessment by Banks  
Alan in Toledo : 4/8/2020 11:43 am : link
Seems they've upgraded by free agency in many areas to where a strong draft (and superior coaching) would turn pessimists around.
Pass the whatever

substance you got right over here pal!
Predictions already?  
Marty866b : 4/8/2020 1:25 pm : link
Isn't it a bit early to start making predictions?
Martinez, Fackrell, Bradbury  
Rafflee : 4/8/2020 9:10 pm : link
They signed productuve abd healthy players..... Toilolo does soemthing that they don't have. Fleming is great depth and upside...resigning Mayo and signing Ebner enhances Specials. They added alot of Football Players.
yes, every team has the same constraints  
uther99 : 4/8/2020 9:17 pm : link
but only a few have an entirely new coaching staff and 2nd year QB. No way this is an advantage to the Giants
