The New York Giants head into a crucial offseason with a massive salary cap increase that could give them the flexibility to reshape the roster. The NFL has informed teams that the cap will rise significantly, landing between $277.5 and $281.5 million. With this increase, the Giants currently hold around $45.1 million in available cap space, according to Spotrac. But that number could skyrocket past $85 million if they make expected moves, including cutting veterans like Nunez-Roches and restructuring key contracts. This level of financial freedom could position the Giants to be major players in free agency.  

As the Giants plan for their future, two of their stars have received well-deserved recognition. Dexter Lawrence and Malik Nabers both landed in PFF’s Top 101 players list. Lawrence continues to be one of the most dominant defensive tackles in the league, finishing with top-three grades at his position and racking up nine sacks in 2024. Meanwhile, Nabers was not only the best rookie wide receiver in the league but also ranked among the NFL’s top overall receivers with 1,204 yards, proving he is a cornerstone for the Giants’ offense moving forward.  

Adding to the offseason buzz, PFF outlined a dream scenario for the Giants that includes signing veteran wide receiver Stefon Diggs and drafting quarterback Shedeur Sanders. The idea of pairing Diggs with Malik Nabers would immediately elevate the Giants’ passing attack, while Sanders’ polished mechanics and strong passing foundation make him an intriguing potential franchise quarterback. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan broke down what it might cost for the Giants to move up to the No. 1 pick, with a package including the third and 34th overall picks, plus possible additional Day 2 selections.  

The Giants also said goodbye to a former player as Jon Feliciano announced his retirement. Feliciano reflected on his time in New York, calling the team’s playoff win over Minnesota his favorite moment. Meanwhile, the coaching staff takes a hit as running backs coach Joel Thomas departs to rejoin the New Orleans Saints under new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore.  

In a surprising turn, boxing legend Floyd Mayweather is reportedly leading a group looking to buy a 10% stake in the New York Giants. Mayweather, alongside real estate mogul Meyer Orbach, has reportedly secured $200 million in an escrow account as part of a larger $700 million proposal. If successful, this move could shake up the ownership landscape for the franchise.  

With major financial flexibility, potential blockbuster moves, and ownership intrigue, the Giants are setting up for a defining offseason. Drew and Rob break down all the latest developments and what they could mean for the future of the team in this episode of 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates.
