NY Giants Weekly

The New York Giants defeated the Carolina Panthers 21-19 in the team’s second preseason game. The first team offense surgically dissected the Carolina defense with a nine play drive that culminated in a Daniel Bellinger touchdown. Most importantly, there were no notable injuries. 

The New York Giants held their second day of training camp open to the public on Thursday afternoon and featured 7 on 7s, 11 on 11s, some 1 on 1s plus a whole lot of skill work. Oh yeah, and Andrew Thomas got PAID.

The running back market in the NFL took a massive blow this past week as New York Giant Saquon Barkley agreed to a modest incentive to break his training camp holdout, Josh Jacobs of the Las Vegas Raiders failed to reach an agreement and left camp all against the back drop of a running back zoom call from this past weekend where players at the position met to try and discuss the future of their position and get paid better. 

With training camp about to get underway, it's time to unpack all things New York Giants. What's the general vibe of the team? What position battles will drive storylines through August? Does Saquon Barkley's absence matter that much? What players are poised to break out this season? Plus a whole lot more and some heated Jalen Hurts discourse 

The New York Giants are Joe Schoen's show and he understands positional value in today's NFL. The team and running back Saquon Barkley were unable to come to terms on a multi-year extension meaning the Penn State product will play on the franchise tag for the 2023 season. 

Thursday afternoon the New York Giants announced a 4 year, $90 million extension with all pro defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence with $60 million guaranteed. 

The New York Giants made seven selections over the weekend in the 2023 NFL draft. Picks included Deonte Banks, John Michael Schmitz, Jalin Hyatt, Eric Gray, Tre Hawkins, Jordan Riley and Gervarrius Owens. 

The New York Giants selected Maryland cornerback, Deonte Banks with the 24th pick in Thursday night's first round of the NFL Draft. Plus some conversation about the confusing decisions of the Detroit Lions and Atlanta Falcons as well as how Howie Roseman made a deal with the devil to turn the Philadelphia Eagles into the University of Georgia North. 

The New York Giants will select 25th overall in the first round of Thursday Night's NFL draft. The Giants are linked to a variety of players at several positions including wide receivers Jordan Addison, Zay Flowers and Quentin Johnston, corners Emmanuel Forbes, Joey Porter Jr, Deonte Banks and many others. 

The New York Giants are scraping the bargain bin for positional value to fill out the roster with signings like wide receiver Paris Campbell and a meeting with defensive tackle A'Shawn Robinson. In Joe Schoen's department of player personnel we trust!
