Have to look at Waller as your number 1 receiver like Kelce is for KC..
The WRs are supporting cast to him

Let’s hope some solid vets shake loose. I was hoping for a C and WR. I do like the LB. This is an uninspiring group to me so far and I think we paid a lot for some of these guys.

We added more speed at WR and TE, which will hopefully lead to more big plays on offense. I believe we'll draft at least one WR, and maybe another TE, too, since the class is so deep.
All in all, I'm pretty happy with what's transpired so far. We've still got a ways to go before we're truly competitive, but in my view we're headed in the right direction.
We need a true number one WR.
I would like to see us grab another pass rusher too.

Right now, they have a bunch of threes at the WR position.
If I was them, would draft one early, and then one later.
I think they have about 10 picks left, after moving 3rd Rd. pick in the Waller deal.
Based on what was out there, and the money they had to spend,
well Schoen did what he could. Not excited about Slayton or the punter back here, but whatever...
That this team won a playoff game is miraculous.

We really needed a good TE, Bellinger is adequate...but this is a major upgrade in theory.
They could still re-sign Feliciano, or they might be content to roll with Bredeson (with Lemieux and Ezeudu as fallbacks). I do hope they sign a good OC prospect, though. I've wanted one for years.
New York Giants: They got a multiyear contract done with QB Daniel Jones, tagged RB Saquon Barkley, traded for TE Darren Waller and signed LB Bobby Okereke. Positive steps for a team trying to build off a surprise run to the 2022 divisional playoff round.
Winners, losers and too close to call - ( New Window )
And then when you need him most ... he’s not dependable.

That doesn't preclude them from bringing back Feliciano for another year. A young draft pick could learn for a year if necessary. I think somebody like Bredeson and Lemieux would stay at guard. I am not holding my breath with a Lemieux, can't stay on the field.
Offense - Top WR, Center, Backup QB
Defense - DL depth, CB depth, S if they don’t resign Love
Would also like to see a rookie punter to push Gillan.

I would add another LB
Could be an edge to take some reps from BJ/ thibs or someone who can play all lb positions effectively
Beavers panning out would be real helpful
Davidson being effective 10-15 snaps a game also. Especially if they can move nunez around on line ( I think he can play all the positions)

Watching some of the film reviews of Nacho from Falato, Skinner, and others, I thought it was pretty clear that he's fine as a run-stuffer playing inside, but he's not a guy you want on the edge, as a 5-Tech. He's just not built for it.
Okereke and Campbell are the LB and WR I was hoping for.
Besides DJ, the rest is gravy.

I am stoked ... all the things I said I'd do he actually has done ... I was thinking a lesser move at ILB contract wise more like David Long's but I will take it. Also with Campbell I really like bringing back Slayton. We have true depth and legit WRs 2 thru 4, still need a #1 in the draft. However with the Waller trade alters my plan a bit, I would have clustered WRs early ...1st and 3rd or 2nd and 3rd with CB, ILB/OLB/IOL mixed in those 1st 4 picks. Now those are the hot items left WR, CB and IOL ... that extra 3rd is a TE vs ILB/OLB/IOL in my plan.
