New York Giants
New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen held his annual bye week press conference on Tuesday.
Sitting alone at a long table in front of a gaggle of reporters, Schoen was hit with questions regarding his club’s many deficiencies this season. He did not, however, engage reporters who attempted to pull him down a rabbit hole about any regime, coach, or quarterback change.
Benching quarterback Daniel Jones has been a hot topic in these parts but Schoen refused to take the bait and dive into the subject too deeply.
“We’re going to evaluate it the rest of the week and...

General manager Joe Schoen spoke to the media on Tuesday, fielding questions as the New York Giants take a disappointing 2-8 record into their bye week.
The current status of the Giants certainly feels low coming off a loss to the Carolina Panthers in Week 10 — a team many believe is among the worst in football.
However, despite the record, Schoen believes they are close to turning the corner and becoming a winner.
“Yeah, the results have not been what we wanted them to be. I don’t want to be sitting up here at 2-8. Like that’s not what...

The first 10 weeks of the New York Giants’ 2024 season are in the rearview mirror as they head into the bye. With a disappointing record of 2-8, there hasn’t been much that has gone right for Big Blue this year.
One of the few things that has been impressive is the team’s 2024 NFL draft class.
General manager Joe Schoen fielded questions from the media on Tuesday and talked about the early success of his most recent class.
“I like Tyler Nubin. He’s played well for us. He’s one of the only rookies playing 99 percent of the defensive...

It’s finally time to ask this question for real
It’s been a long time in coming, but we’ve finally reached a watershed moment in the New York Giants 2024 NFL season.
The Giants go into their Week 11 bye carrying a 2-8 record and are coming off of a bad loss to a Carolina Panthers team that’s been commonly thought of as the worst in the NFL. The Giants aren’t mathematically out of the playoffs, but their season is likely all but over.
Looming over the entire season has been the future of the Giants’ quarterback position. The team was...

Schoen believes in the foundation being built despite the record
There will be some who think he is delusional, but New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen said on Tuesday he believes the 2-8 Giants are “not far off” from being a good team.
“I like the direction we’re going,” a somewhat defiant Schoen said during his bye week press conference. “I like my team. I like my strategy, the groups that help me in research and strategy, my scouting department, we’ve got a good coaching staff, and I truly believe we’re heading in the right direction.”
Schoen, of course,...

New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen held his annual bye week press conference on Tuesday and answered the question most attendees wanted to hear answered.
Will he be back as GM in 2025?
“Yes,” Schoen quickly said with confidence. “I communicate with ownership all the time. I know (head coach Brian Daboll) talks about that continuously each time these questions come up. We have a really good relationship with ownership…there’s confidence in the plan and where we’re heading.”
At the same time, Schoen acknowledged that this season was a disappointing one so far.
“Obviously, we’re sitting here at 2-8....

Let’s break down Neals performance in his first real action of 2024
The New York Giants started Evan Neal in Week 10 for the first time in 2024. Neal returned from offseason ankle surgery and rehabilitation toward the end of training camp. Turbulence plagued Neal’s first two years, as injuries and poor play seemingly marred his confidence.
The Giants are more than two years removed from selecting Neal No. 7 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, and they were hesitant to give Neal a shot at starting. Andrew Thomas suffered a season-ending foot injury in Week 6. Brian Daboll and...

New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen is a believer in the modern view of positional value across the NFL. His treatment of the edge defender position is a prime example.
Schoen’s first draft selection as Giants’ GM was Kayvon Thibodeaux, taken No. 5 overall in the 2022 draft. His biggest swing to improve the team via trade was acquiring Brian Burns from the Carolina Panthers.
The fact that Schoen refused to trade Azeez Ojulari, insisting on a price no one was willing to pay despite the possibility of losing Ojulari as a free agent this offseason, might be considered...

Who’s stock is up, and who’s is down?
The 2024 college football season is really starting to heat up. We just finished Week 12 of the season and are inching closer to Rivalry Week, Championship Weekend, and then the College Football Playoffs.
The NFL’s draft process is also getting ready to spin up, as teams start to separate and we get some clarity in the draft order.
It’s looking increasingly likely that the New York Giants will be in the market for a new quarterback in 2025. What we don’t know, at least not yet, is whether the Giants will...

Daboll’s return not guaranteed despite John Mara’s recent plea for patience
NFL insider Adam Schefter isn’t sure that New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll will survive a second straight miserable season. Schefter said Monday on the Pat McAfee Show that “anything’s possible” with the Giants.
“I don’t know that anybody can say that anybody’s safe in New York. I don’t know that anybody can say that anybody’s safe when you’re on track to have the No. 1 overall pick in the draft,” Schefter said.
“We’ll give him [Giants co-owner John Mara] the benefit of the doubt,...
