It was viewed as something of a surprise when the New York Giants didn’t move to remake their roster in free agency. John Harbaugh believes that the Giants’ existing roster is in a pretty good place and only needed a few additions to compete with anyone in the NFL.

The national media, on the other hand, disagrees and the general consensus seems to be that a six- or seven-win season would be a good step forward for the Giants in Harbaugh’s first year.

If the Giants are going to surprise the national media and exceed their expected win total, [**which...

It would be easy to name Abdul Carter as a breakout candidate on defense for the New York Giants. Would it really be a breakout for Carter if he has a big second season, or would he just be doing what he was expected to do when the Giants made him the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft?

Instead, I am going to choose a heavily-criticized third-year player who has not come close to being the player the Giants expected when they drafted him in 2024.

Safety Tyler Nubin.

Norm Weiss asks: Ed, last year when Nabers went down and Skattebo went down, based on past history, I thought the offense would collapse. Instead, they were consistently better than they had been in years. I believe that the growth of the offensive line into a quality unit and intangibles from Jaxon Dart’s leadership were at the heart of the improved offense. With the drafting of Mauigoa, Dart’s further development, new coaching staff and the return of Nabers and Skattebo, do you think the Giants will have a top offense or am I just dreaming?

Ed says: Norm, offense was...

You do not have to look too hard to see league insiders think Isaiah Likely will be key player this year for the New York Giants. Coming over in free agency, Likely is joining John Harbaugh in New York with lofty expectations after signing a three-year, $40 million contract.

Likely believes this offense will finally allow him to showcase the full range of his abilities after spending four seasons sharing opportunities in Baltimore.

“I feel like New York was just the best place for me to pick to be able to blossom, show my talents, and show that I’m...

The New York Giants defensive line is a topic of some concern in 2026.

It could be fine after the team acquired a bevy of block eaters this year, apparently hoping they’ll free up their athletic linebackers to make plays. On the other hand, the veterans could fall off and the defense could suffer for a lack of pressure up the middle.

We’ll see how their plan plays out this year, but the Giants will still likely need to invest in their defensive line for the long haul.

If they decide to do so in the NFL draft, Ole Miss...

It is almost too easy to pick a breakout candidate on offense for the New York Giants. It has to be tight end Isaiah Likely.

Breakout players often post unexpected production above anything they previously accomplished. Sometimes, though, you can see a breakout season coming. There can be an “or else” feel to it. As in, Player X needs to be more productive “or else” there is going to be a problem.

That is the case with Likely and the Giants.

Likely averaged 33.75 receptions, 392 yards, and 3.75 touchdowns during his four seasons with the Baltimore Ravens after being...

Before heading to West Virginia later this month, one of the most unsettled positions groups for the New York Giants is wide receiver. The primary concern is the health of Malik Nabers and despite head coach John Harbaugh being optimistic that Nabers will participate in training camp, the extent of his availability and whether the third year pro can quickly regain his elite form remain uncertain.

Beyond Nabers, the Giants have cast a wide net for a receiver to challenge Darius Slayton, who has missed practice this year himself after offseason surgery, to be the No. 2 receiver. The team...

Welcome to the second installment of my preliminary rankings and tiers for each major position for fantasy. Today I’m hitting everyone’s least favorite position: Tight end. OK fine, some people like kicker even less. In most leagues, you must start a tight end, so you can’t just ignore it.

You can find all my preseason fantasy content, including my other rankings and tiers, here. I’ll update rankings in late August. Hopefully, these initial looks will help you to start thinking about player values and draft strategies.

Before we get to the rankings, here are three observations on the TE position....

I was intrigued by Ed’s piece on Monday highlighting the New York Giants players who made the Pro Football and Sports Network’s Top 100 list. Like some of you, my first reaction was: 32 teams, 100 players, three Giants – sounds about right if you do the math. In reality three Giants was a generous amount, considering that one of the three, Malik Nabers, played fewer than three games before suffering a season-ending injury.

That then got me to thinking: Do more great players make for a great team? If so, how many others besides those three might make next...

Entering training camp, the 2026 New York Giants might face more questions at wide receiver than at any other spot on the roster.

If you want to argue that there are as many or questions on the defensive line, fine. At least on offense, though, no position faces as many questions as wide receiver.

Malik Nabers’ availability

After two surgeries to repair the OCL he tore in Week 4 of the 2025 season, there have been questions about Nabers’ availability and effectiveness early in the season. GM Joe Schoen and head coach John Harbaugh have maintained an optimistic tone...

As the New York Giants approach training camp, one of the biggest questions surrounding the team is not just how rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart will develop, but how three very different offensive coaches will work together. Big Blue View’s Chris Pflum examines whether Matt Nagy, Brian Callahan, and Greg Roman can form a productive partnership or become an example of too many voices in one room.

Be sure to read that, if you haven’t. Now, let’s check the headlines.

Will the New York Giants need a wide receiver in 2026?

It’s impossible to say at this stage, but it’s certainly possible that they will. Even if Malik Nabers makes a full recovery and Malachi Fields impresses as a rookie, most of the Giants’ receiving corps is on a one-year contract. And if quarterback Jaxson Dart takes the next step in his development, the Giants will need to prioritize giving him weapons with which to attack defenses.

That said, if Dart does take the next step in his development, the Giants likely won’t be in a position to draft at...
