CBS SPORTS article Ranking the Top 10 NFL offseasons by team

Snacks : 6/18/2021 4:09 pm

Giants aren't in top 10 and got an "honorable mention".

Agree or disagree?
Ranking the top 10 NFL offseasons by team: Browns, Buccaneers and Chargers reign supreme - ( New Window )
What are they referring to with Kadarius Toney's health?  
81_Great_Dane : 6/18/2021 4:20 pm : link
They are putting A LOT of weight on proven veterans. A lot of those veterans are going to turn out to be on the downward slope of their careers.

That said, if the Giants had wound up with Davonta Smith instead of Toney, they'd be on the top 10 list.

That list is fine I guess. I think they're selling the Giants a little short. We'll see.
Glad they are underselling us, they put a ton of value into

over the hill veteran names. Always a recipe for success in the NFL/sarcasm off.
Yeah ok, Cody.

He's smiling. He still probably had his lunch money when the picture was taken.
The Giants won’t get credit for anything until they win

We need to get out there and win games and all the bandwagon jumpers will be diving on our cart.

Until then, enjoy the disrespect.

Our time is coming.
LOL

No mention of the Pats shopping spree?

And Mitch Trubisky, Emmanuel Sanders and Matt Breida get the Bills into the top 10?

Wow.
How the Bills and Vikings made that list  
Jimmy Googs : 6/18/2021 5:26 pm : link
is beyond me...
No Mention of Olijari?  
Samiam : 6/18/2021 5:41 pm : link
I see the Giants got an honorable mention. I think the team probably should have been in the top 10. If the author talks Tampa’s re-signing of players, Leonard Williams could have been mentioned. But, to me, the drafting of Olijari probably elevates the defense to rarified air since he addresses what I thought was a very critical need, pass rush.

I was thinking the same. Must be a Bills fan. Ridiculous analysis
Same

CBS Sports who was saying Joe Judge is one of the worst coaches in the league.

They have more hacks than any other sports media site. Moving on.

It’s #internszn baby!
Just take a look at some of the key additions  
Gman11 : 6/18/2021 7:32 pm : link
and you wonder how this guy gets paid to do this.

Carson Wentz - the guy the Eagles couldn't get rid of fast enough
Bud Dupree - Coming off a major injury
Mitchell Trubisky - replaced by Dalton in Chicago. Enough said.
Matt Brieda - Um..yeah. Of course. Championship!
DeSean Jackson - Will he be getting a fork-ectomy?
Bashaud Breeland - If you like your DBs to suck. He's your guy.
Ryan Fitzpatrick - Still waiting to come into his prime.
Adam Humphries - Probably sat out Zoom meetings with a concussion.
Jadaveon Clowney - His 3 sacks two years ago must have solidified that deal.
I guess it would be too much to ask ...

to consider that the Giants added the players they did, and netted draft picks next year? How does acquiring those picks not part of this offseason?
The Giants had an absolutely great offseason  
BillT : 6/18/2021 9:49 pm : link
Quality additions to every unit on the team. Possibly the top FA available at WR plus a top CB and TE. Starters or significant rotational players on the DL and LB. Quality backups at RB and on the OL. Add a really good draft and they have filled out the roster in a way that wasn’t imaginable at the beginning of FA. Amazing job by the FO.
extremely strange  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 6/18/2021 10:11 pm : link
the ONLY reason that any pundits have been talking about the Giants as a possible surprise team is BECAUSE of their offseason.

Not to sound like a homer, but I don't think there is another team in the NFL that more dramatically changed their roster in the offseason than the Giants.
I feel a basis of a good team was needed....  
George from PA : 6/19/2021 1:07 am : link
As all the the top 10....were decent or division winners

CBS is consistently trash

Couldn't care less
Fitzpatrick  
Spirit of '86 : 6/19/2021 11:04 am : link
How is Fitzpatrick a "clear upgrade" one Smith? Smith was good against Giants and Eagles.
Who really cares

I'm in agreement. We upgraded WR and CB big-time, and got a pass rusher round 2 who hopefully can really upgrade us.

This.

I honestly have no interest in winning any “best offseason” awards. Who the hell cares? This “debate” will easily be settled based on the our W/L record at the end of the year— honestly nothing else matters in this “argument” other than that.

Wow am I late to this thread, but I have to disagree with you here. Assuming he doesn't suddenly hit the "age" wall this year, I think Fitzpatrick was a great addition. And adding Curtis Samuel and Adam Humphries to Terry McClaurin and RB Antonio Gibson gives him an excellent set of passcatchers to throw to. If they have a healthy year and rookies like Jammin Davis (who I was high on) and Samuel Cosmi (who I wasn't high on) produce, they will be a handful.

[/quo_Fitzpatrick has been all over the league for a reason and now he is 39. He may have a decent season but he'll throw the ball away too.
