NY Giants Weekly

Join hosts Nick Zararis and Weis on this Episode of NYG Weekly for a deep dive into the second episode of Hard Knocks covering the team's foray into the draft process, trying to trade up to number three, trading for Brian Burns, handling Saquon Barkley contract negotiations and the scouting staff's bonding. In addition, a conversation about the first ten players announced in the team's top 100 Giants of all time list to celebrate the team's 100th season of existence. 

The NFL schedule was unveiled on Wednesday night and the New York Giants will embark on their 100th season of football: home Minnesota, away Washington, away Cleveland, home Dallas, away Seattle, home Cincinnati, home Philadelphia, away Pittsburgh, home Washington, away Carolina, Bye, home Tampa Bay, away Dallas (Thanksgiving), home New Orleans, home Baltimore, away Atlanta, home Indianapolis, away Philadelphia.  

In addition, HBO and the NFL announced that the Giants would be featured in the first ever offseason edition of Hard knocks, highlighting the team's roster moves and the lead up to the NFL draft. 

The New York Giants opted to draft wide receiver Malik Nabers 6th overall in last week's NFL draft. The team selected Nabers over quarterbacks J.J. McCarthy, Michael Penix and Bo Nix. With the Giants still in need of a long-term solution at the quarterback, there is unrest amongst the fan base. Ethan, Nick and Weis are here to quell concern and put some reason out into the universe. 

In a strategic move, the Giants selected Malik Nabers as their 6th overall pick, bypassing highly touted quarterbacks JJ McCarthy, Michael Penix, and Bo Nix. Explore with us as we uncover the rationale behind this decision and how it aligns with the Giants' long-term perspective on roster building. While the Giants might not yet have their quarterback, the front office and coach are making the best of the situation at hand and not forcing a pick at the most important position in the sport. 

The New York Football Giants finally closed the book on the Saquon Barkley era of franchise on Monday letting the running back opt for free agency and sign with the Philadelphia Eagles. In addition, safety Xavier McKinney opted to sign with the Green Bay Packers. The Giants completed a trade for pass rusher Brian Burns and signed both Jon Runyan and Jermain Eluemunor to help solidify the offensive line. 

In addition, a whole lot of Joe Schoen talk. 

The New York Football Giants and defensive coordinator Wink Martindale finally agreed to part ways on Wednesday afternoon after several days of drama. In addition the team made several changes to the coaching staff including long time punching bag, offensive line coach Bobby Johnson. 

With the offseason looming and the top of the NFL draft order solidified, what can the Giants do to make the best out of a difficult situation with no obvious solution at the quarterback position and 3 teams ahead of them in the draft with a clear need at QB. 

How will Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll address the offseason? 

The New York Giants inexplicably as ten point underdogs went on the road and defeated the Washington Commanders in Tommy DeVito's first career win as a starting quarterback. While the Giants won on the field, winning might have consequences for next spring's NFL draft and sets up a crucial game this upcoming weekend against the New England Patriots. Caleb Williams bowl, Tanksgiving, it's all in front of the Giants. 

The New York Football Giants will not win another football game as long as Tommy DeVito, the pride of Don Bosco Prep, plays quarterback for the franchise. Simply put, it's not DeVito's fault the Giants are losing, nor is Brian Daboll at fault for this mess of a season. With injuries piling up, the stakes low and the team unable to function on offense, why is everyone still so angry? Isn't a high draft pick in the spring a good thing? 

The New York Giants of Daniel Jones are dead gone and buried. The former 6th overall pick suffered a torn ACL in Sunday afternoon's game against the Las Vegas Raiders which felt like a death knell for the organization's long-term plans at the position. Now, the focus must shift to the NFL draft and the Giants potentially taking a quarterback in the top five whether it be Caleb Williams or Drake Maye.

The New York Giants made one trade prior to Tuesday's deadline but it was a significant one. The Giants sent defensive lineman Leonard Williams to the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for second and fifth round picks. However, the Giants did hold onto both Saquon Barkley and Adoree' Jackson even though both are expiring players. In addition, the Commanders sent Chase Young and Montez Sweat to the San Francisco 49ers and Chicago Bears respectively.
