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.
Adios, DG!
I would change the definite article "the" to the indefinite article "a".
Then you have a more accurate statement.
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.

You’re right. I should have seen it sooner.
This is definitely P Dot. The worlds biggest delusional homer DG fan boy
why are you so tough?

I'm not. I just want to see my team be good again.
Sorry you don't.
I think Reese was worse.

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.

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.
And I am ignoring draft failures because the list is too long.
I think the op is wrong.
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.
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?
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?
End of story.
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.

there was one week in that 4 year run where the team was even .500 at some during these past 4 years.

Haha, well played.
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
Many more "prove it" years ahead...
There are a lot of long books that aren’t very good.
Here are some real numbers to reflect on: 5,4,6,4.
19-45.

He tried. It didn't work out.
Did he really try?
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.
I think this confirms ==> troll.
There might be 5 players on this roster who will still be on the team in three years.
