I see Dave Gettleman’s administration looking a lot better

GiantsFan42 : 1/8/2022 11:05 am
Five years from now

Like him or not the talent is there and he found the QB in Daniel.

It’s sad his plan never got a chance to be executed. I truly believe he was going to draft two stud OL in this years draft and then the Oline would be fixed (hog mollies) and Saquon, Daniel, and, KT will show just how special they are.

Next year when the Giants are in the playoffs a lot of you will be thanking Uncle Dave.

Worst GM in Giants history.

"...found the QB in Daniel."

I would change the definite article "the" to the indefinite article "a".

Then you have a more accurate statement.
I hope you are right.....  
George from PA : 1/8/2022 11:16 am : link
But he can not undo " we believe in the OL, more than you do".

Drafting Barkley before the OL was fixed...to try to give Eli another run was wrong strategy....as an improved OL might have extended extended Eli career.

Much will be forgiven, if Daniel Jones turns out to be a franchise QB.....but that is running out of time.


DG us doing ok because he might fix the OL next year!!  
BillT : 1/8/2022 11:18 am : link
And this is something your touting DG for. This is why he should be fired because we’re four years in and he’s failed to come close to fixing the OL. In fact, it may be worse than when he got here. This is near delusional.
I would not doubt this is a burner  
Sean : 1/8/2022 11:19 am : link
There is another possible burner making the rounds on twitter (crusadersWR), linked profile below. Account claims that Abrams will get GM in order to keep the front office in tact (mainly due to Pettit & McDonnell).

Not even close. DG has been the worst GM in the league for the last 4 years. Reese won a SB or two here. DG hasn't even come close to a playoff berth here.
Uh huh, just like "DG has the Giants on the right track."

Sorry you don't.


i really do man, I do and I try to advocate that in my posts but I really think blowing it up all over again at this stage isn't going to work.

I also truly believe the top level GM's and HC's are not going to want to come here because of the constant change showing no approach for stability.

Being a Mets fan I went through that already, That's a even bigger problem then player performance.

I hope for the best but fear we are going to be right back here in 2 years.
 
ryanmkeane : 1/8/2022 12:08 pm : link
Reese drafted more guys who were great players - but he completely whiffed on way more players that didn’t even belong in the NFL. DG’s issue is that he has drafted just basically average to OK players with some good ones mixed in. He has never hit on the elite guys
4 years  
Joe Beckwith : 1/8/2022 12:09 pm : link
1(one) HM, 6 OL drafted, 1 year strong OL class and 0 selected, 1 traded for, several FA signings for OL(all failures).
And I am ignoring draft failures because the list is too long.
I think the op is wrong.
Actually  
ryanmkeane : 1/8/2022 12:10 pm : link
I think Thomas can be elite along with McKinney.

If Toney becomes something along with Ojulari, I guess DGs drafts got a lot better once Judge came on board.

Once Judge entered the picture, they have drafted players who have legit all pro/pro bowl potential. That was basically non existent previously.
If you want to compare DG and Reese, compare their records.  
Dave in Hoboken : 1/8/2022 12:10 pm : link
And I'm not a Reese defender at all. But DG's run here has been so pathetic that it's literally indefensable to anyone with a functioning brain.

Dave in Hoboken : 1/8/2022 12:12 pm : link
there was one week in that 4 year run where the team was even .500 at some during these past 4 years.

He can't draft. He can't sign FA's. He can't do anything.

Dave - that’s incorrect. Gettleman presided over many months when the Giants were comfortably at .500, in the offseason when they were 0-0.

Well, according to his resume, which he was more than happy to share, Gettleman built - what? - seven super bowl teams?
There are at least 5 players

Gman11 : 1/8/2022 12:22 pm : link
He tried. It didn't work out.

However, knowing that Solder was done, Hernandez was not going to live up to being a 2nd round pick, Lemieux and Peart were question marks how in the hell could he not draft at least one OL in last year's draft? How?
The problem is, Giants aren't going to the playoffs

Did he really try? I don't think you can look at what he did with the OL and see, with 20/20 hindsight, any plan. Not drafting any OL in two of his four drafts. One in another. Trading for a OL who had a two year window because of his contract but not having anyone ready to take over for him. Paying Solder and keeping him despite him probably never even having an average game in four years. Paying $5m to Omaneh who didn't last one season.

That's not trying the way I see it.

The DG era was always going to be defined  
mfsd : 1/8/2022 12:36 pm : link
first and foremost by the transition from Eli to another QB. Setting up the org with an elite franchise QB for the next decade plus would make dumbassery like Jonathan Stewart, Nate Solder, Alec Ogletree, blowing the 2nd pick of the draft less significant.

If Daniel Jones comes back next year and somehow turns into Patrick Mahomes or Justin Herbert, we can look back with fondness at the success of the DG era

Sadly, the chances of that happening are slim and none

Not saying he has not been horrible, but if you think he is the worst in our history, then you must be a young guy. When the Maras were the GM back in the 60's-70's, it was much worse.

Imagine having the following people in your organization and letting them go...

Vince Lombardi
Tom Landry
Fran Tarkenton
Sam Huff

The there is Bill Belichick but that blame has to go to George Young.

This era is probably a close second to what Giants fans dealt with from the early 60's through the late 70s

Jones isn’t horrible. He can win us some games but he really doesn’t elevate us in most
Throw somewhat consistent running game and oline that’s nfl level and jones probably a middle of the road guy. I don’t think he would really elevate us to consistent playoff contender He isn’t the biggest issue on team but if you have a chance to elevate qb position, u have to. I wouldn’t give him 5th yr, not at 20 million plus

Yes, he tried. He failed. The fact that most of his draft choices and free agent signings weren't any good doesn't mean he didn't try. It means he stunk at it.
