I think the Lions, Texans and Jaguars have secured the top-3 picks. 4 and 5 should be the goal. Let's hope Zach Wilson can win some games for the Jets and the Seahawks win some games.
LFG BIG BLUE!

Good to know.
Giants are going to have their 2 picks somewhere from 5-10  
NY-Fan : 12/5/2021 4:23 pm : link
Detroit, Houston, Jacksonville and the Jets will be picking before the Giants & Bears. They could get to 5 and the Giants and Bears are not going to drop further then 10. I could see them having 6 & 8 when it is all said and done.
Bears play the Packers, Minny twice, Giants and Seahawks.

It will be more of the same. Stick with Jones for the next two seasons. Build out the O line and D line/ LB corp and then you get your QB. Its quite easy really. Cluster draft O linemen this year first three picks.

Who amoungst us would be unhappy with that???

I wouldn’t. The Giants need edge talent as well and it’s not easy to find outside of the top of the draft.

The Giants will 5 picks in the first 3 rounds. They need to come out of that with at least 1 premium edge and 3 OL.

"football decisions" it won't matter where we pick. No good GM candidate is going to want to come here.

Ideally if value and talent is there, a stout interior OL or RT and a front seven defensive playmaker.

Look to see how the QBs stack up but don’t overdraft. Have early picks in 2nd and 3rd.
6 and 7 OK but I'm hoping for better as we go into what has become

Exactly. All this talk means nothing. It’s a family owned company and they are going to hired relatives and others close to them. Giants fans. It’s over! I’ve seen this act before. 60’s and 70’s. There is no Pete Rozelle to help bail us out

John does share part of the blame, but zeroing in on Chris Mara exposes the most damaging thing the Maras have done - interfere with the personnel - which have been wretched since Chris took over in 2012.

We've won Superbowls with John sitting in his seat and he'll hide behind that. We've done squadoo since Chris took his.

Looking at the remaining schedules they might leapfrog Seattle but I think 5th is as high as they're gonna get. Even if they end up with the same record as the Jets they lose out on strength of schedule.

You guys are stressing too much over a couple of draft positions...  
EricJ : 12/5/2021 9:31 pm : link
instead, the focus should be on finding two players who can be quality starters for many years in the league.

Stop trying to strike gold with every pick because nobody really knows anyway.

Most of the top players in the league at their respective positions were not even taken in the top 10 of the draft and some not even in the first round.

So if you have a team doing a good job with talent evaluation and coaches who know how to develop players, then everything will fall into place. (unfortunately, we do not have either of the two)

With the Giants luck, This probably happens since DBs are the one area they are strong at, especially at safety and I love Hamilton. But like ERs, you can never have enough CBs.

Plenty of guys for us to select even after hutch and thibs are gone

I don't get to watch much this year, but I don't need to watch to know that Barkley is doing his best Tucker Fredrickson. Is it his body or the O-line?
I will continue to lurk and enjoy.

charles355 : 12/6/2021 1:00 am : link
5 and 8

I think the Seahawks will win at least 2 more games

so Chicago will be pick #5 (we need the Vikes to beat them twice)

New Orleans should win 2 mores too

Carolina are dangerous

Atlanta should win 1-2 more games

so finally I think the order will be:

#1 Jacksonville Evan Neal
#2 Detroit Aidan Hutchinson
#3 Houston Kayvon Thibodeaux
#4 NY Jets Derek Stingley
#5 NYG (Bears) Trade down (Atlanta) who wants a QB
#6 Carolina Kyle Hamilton
#7 NYG Trade down (Denver) who wants a QB
#8 Phila (Miami) George Karlaftis
#9 NYG (Atlanta) Tyler Linderbaum
#10 Las Vegas Ahmad Gardner
#11 NYG (Denver) Kenyon Green
Round 2: David Ojabo
Round 3: Zion Nelson
Round 3: Charlie Kolar

#5 traded to Atlanta in return of pick #9 and a first round pick in 2023
and
# 7 traded to Denver in return of pick #11 and a first round pick in 2023

so next year we will have 3 #1 first round pick and we can easily target our new QB Stroud or Young


OL

Andrew Thomas - Shane Lemieux - Tyler Linderbaum - Kenyon Green - and the winner between Zion Nelson and Matt Peart or a free agent

I'm all about this and would be ecstatic if it worked out this way. I want ammo going into the 2023 draft and come away with a QB1 for it. I like your picks for this draft as well.

In this scenario below, how much would you be willing to give up to move up to snag Neal. It would not be both #1s. Jax needs picks.

Next TWO seasons?

I don't see how they can justify picking up the 5th year option at this point (and they have to decide this offseason, prior to his 4th year). I can get behind keeping him for next year, and if he makes huge progress with a (hopefully) improved OL, as many fans cling their last remaining hope for DJ to, then either tag him or sign him to a second contract at that point. But the 5th year option is going to be north of $21M for DJ, and it's hard to see how that makes sense right now.

That doesn't mean they have to go shopping hungry in 2023 if they do let DJ walk. They'll be able to find a placeholder journeyman for less than $21M.
