Why the Gettleman hate

Giants73 : 10/10/2021 10:28 pm
Guys drafts have produced some good players:
Barkley, Jones, dexter, Toney, ajeez, lemeuix, Thomas, Peart,

Serviceable later picks in Love, Carter, McKinney, coughlin, crowder,

Decent trades: returning Leo, Peppers, picks,

Decent FA pickups: Bradberry, Martinez, Jackson, Ryan, Ross

Overall team is better than what he started with.

He gets the coaches players they want for their systems.

Does this all stem from a love affair with OBj? I know Ny media was butt hurt over that, especially Kim Jones and the talking heads at ESPN.

Is it the Jones pick because the douchbag media wanted Haskins here who obviously the wrong choice.

Don’t get it. This team sucks but it is do to a crappy head coach who the owner wanted because Belichek talked him up.
The team sucks

The team is arguable just as bad today

That’s unacceptable. We all deserve better.

You have Shepard getting 10 million a year to play the slot. Where is KT supposed to play if Shep is on the field?

Keaton028 : 10/10/2021 10:46 pm : link
This team, at no point in any season since 2017, has had a winning record at any point of the season. That is unbelievably pathetic.
Like many on here, big time disagreed with the Barkley pick at #2  
Tom in NY : 10/10/2021 10:50 pm : link
in the '18 draft.
At the very least, he could have/should have traded down before selecting SB. Barkley is a GREAT player, but the Giants needed to begin a massive rebuild and RB is not the position at #2 in the draft to start with.
Additionally, the Oline, which has been marginally better this year, is still not "fixed." Just look at the Dallas Oline and that's what the Giants should have in place 4 years into DG's tenure.

I do like many of the players he has brought in, but the full rebuild was delayed because of this 2018 draft decision, as well as the FA money spent on Solder, Omameh (sp?), Rudolph (so far), Tate....and there are some who really hate that he traded Beckham away.

Throw in ignoring the Dline & Oline, and that is all you need to know why he needs to get fired now!
doesn't deserve to be making picks going forward...  
BillKo : 10/10/2021 11:01 pm : link
... I was a DG proponent based on his track record and success elsewhere.

But this team looks no different than it did back in 2017 sans a few players.

We talk about the arrow pointing upward and a team building towards something.

I just don't see it. I'm not even sure if we have the right HC.

Not every move DG has made has been the wrong move. Trading Beckham was the correct move.
I think the talent is better than they’ve shown  
AcesUp : 10/10/2021 11:04 pm : link
But Gettleman has had an embarrassment of resources the last 4 years compared to other teams. Look at the signing bonus money dished out and the draft picks used. Sure, some bad luck and bad coaching involved this year but this roster is somewhere between bad to mediocre when it should be one of the strongest in the league. We’re at the top of an accumulation phase from a roster resource perspective and we’re 1-4.

Because 4 yrs into his tenure, they have not come close to threatening a winning record. Furthermore, he and his staff show little ability in making the proper picks or pursuing the right free agents. But other than that, he is great.

As apparent feathers in Gettleman's cap just aren't very good.

I'll give you that he has acquired some very good players. What terrible GM hasn't?
Can't build a team through Free Agency  
uconngiant : 10/10/2021 11:53 pm : link
He is known for trading picks which in my opinion is a no no.

You need to keep picks because you hit and miss. The more the better, but Gettleman has a bad habit of trading them and that is bad for the future.
Keep the picks ditch the GM
Gettleman is a Huge Upgrade Over Jerry Reese

Huge upgrade? Do you know what those two words actually mean when put together?

It’s quite obvious you don’t because, well, you’re simply not paying attention or just willfully fucking ignorant.

A list of players  
madeinstars : 10/11/2021 3:54 am : link
Gettleman hugely overvalued:

- Nate Solder
- Alec Ogletree
- Patrick Omameh
- Saquon Barkley
- Jonathan Stewart
- Golden Tate
- Leonard Williams
- Logan Ryan (inital contract was fine, paying him over 10 mln a year now, mainly for intangibles is not)
- Deandre Baker
- Kyle Rudolph
- Kenny Golloday
- Jabril 'it's like another first round pick' Peppers
- 'We are clearly more confident in our O-line than you'

Other questionable roster moves:
- Getting rid of Jason Pierre Paul and Romeo Okwara (especially in the light of the absolute embarrasment of a pass rush he replaced them with)
- Getting rid of Kevin Zeitler
- Not trading Collins or Engram
- Letting Dalvin Tomlinson walk and replacing him with the corpse of Danny Shelton
- I'm not going to get into the wormhole of Daniel Jones at #6 and trading Beckham, but personally I don't think we got the best possible value with either move.

Now let's look at his philosophy of Hog Mollies and, more importantly: 'Run the ball, stop the rush, rush the passer'. The Giants can't:
- Run the Ball
- Stop the run
- Rush the passer

Now let's look at his W-L record:
- 16-36 (JR's final three years: 20-28)

Now let's look at the cap situation of this terrible team with a QB on a rookie deal:
- 2022 (according to OTC) current estimation is 450k of free cap space and that is without Will Hernandez, Jabrill Peppers and Evan Engram.

Dead money of currently underperforming players if cut this off season:
- Bradberry 9 million
- Golloday 23 million
- Adoree Jackson 18 million
- Logan Ryan 11 million
- Sterling Shepard (not technically underperforming, but injury prone and we have KT for the slot) 7 million
- Kyle Rudolph 2,5 million
- Saquon Barkley 7 million
- Nate Solder 4 million

but yeah, Gettleman is doing a great job.
Is this thread meant to be a joke?

It’s worse. That team made the playoffs the year before. And in the 4 year span will win more games too
You didn’t notice the talent difference on field yesterday?  
UberAlias : 10/11/2021 6:53 am : link
NYG has had more and higher draft picks. Dallas is far more talented. That’s obvious.
Think about it this way  
Blue The Dog : 10/11/2021 7:20 am : link
The Giants could go undefeated the rest of the season, including winning the super bowl, and Gettleman still would have an overall W/L below .500

The Dallas Cowboys offense is what Dave Gettleman preached about when he first got the job but failed to deliver in his four years with the Giants.

And Dallas is a much better passing team than the Giants are too. #TogetherBlue

Be careful of using the word “jealous” on BBI, it triggers a lot of people.
