Draft, Free Agency

NateDogg14 : 3/3/2021 5:13 pm
I really hope that the Giants are able to get one of the six players that PFF's Mike Renner listed in his podcast: Smith, Waddle, Parsons, Chase, Pitts, Sewell. Of course, it depends on how many quarterbacks go in the top 10. Anyway, I know we won't get Sewell, but if they can get one of these offensive weapons, then I hope they go offensive line in rounds 2 and 3 because there will be good linemen available, and we cannot afford to wait until later rounds for that position. Renner said he would not be surprised to see 10 linemen go in the first 2 rounds and that this is the deepest class he has ever seen. Then if they can get a corner in the 4th and a pass rusher in free agency (Rams? Bengals?), I think they would be in great shape. What do you think?
No matter how I slice it

Giants only realistic hope for step forward is improvement of guys already on the roster. We'll be lucky to break even in free agency and we have six draft picks. Maybe we draft the offensive and defensive ROYs with the first two picks, but let's be realistic.
Biggest thing the Giants have going is

The coaches have clear understanding of they have on the roster and what they need.....

Balance of team....has a base of knowledge to build on....

Continued development of the young players, hit on a couple gems in FA and hope for another solid draft.

I suspect...the holes will be filled and if they stay healthy...we should be good....as it will take another year...to build depth.
Saints cut Jared Cook

Would be a great addition.
Cook turns 34 in April

to old and probably won't play for vet minimum.

... get one of the eight players: Smith, Waddle, Parsons, Chase, Pitts, Sewell, Surtain and Farley.

Or (Waddle, D Smith and Pitts scare me due to low floor):
... get one of the five players: Parsons, Chase, Pitts, Sewell, Surtain and Farley.

Fixed (IMHO) - Really Fixed

Pitts floor is not low

Not sure where people get their info. Any player can fail but he has a high floor
Without predicting what will happen in free

agency, NYG needs more than 1 playmaker on offense. I’d like to come out of this draft with 2 wide receivers, if the value presents itself.
Not to mention  
Giant John : 3/4/2021 4:38 am : link
RB, edge, TE and LB.

He's a tweener. His floor is out of the league after 2 years.
Pitts worry is that he is a tweener

But the zero drops stat is noteworthy. Very unlikely he will be there at 11, but he shouldn't be pigeon holed at TE if the Giants take him.

Completely agree on the 8. Renner thought Farley was the better pick because Surtain, while fundamentally sound and with size, runs a 4.6, so he can get burned.
