New York Giants
We’re still solidly in the lull between the New York Giants off-season program and the opening of training camp at the end of July.
But there still seems to be an energy in the air, even as the dog days of summer drag on. Training camp, and with it real football and real football news, is getting closer by the minute. That will be when we first start to see the fruits of the Giants’ off-season and just how big a difference the roster churn and new coaching staff will make.
New head coach John Harbaugh has stated that the...

The New York Giants on Tuesday claimed a defensive tackle off waivers, and waived/injured a cornerback, proving once again that even on a lazy summer day, the NFL never truly sleeps.
The Giants have been awarded defensive tackle C.J. Ravenell off waivers from the Tennessee Titans. Ravenell was waived from injured reserve by the Titans earlier this week.
An undrafted free agent out of Missouri Western State, Ravenell played in 14 games with one start for the Titans last season. The 6-foot-5, 300-pounder had six tackles and a forced fumble in just 97 defensive snaps.

There is a definite sense of optimism surrounding the New York Giants, and real excitement for what the team can be in 2026.
The Giants are considered one of the most likely teams in the NFL to make the leap from worst to first and could challenge the Philadelphia Eagles for the division crown. The biggest reason for that is the arrival of head coach John Harbaugh, but the Giants have also had a strong off-season that may have brought upgrades to almost every position on the field.
The first priority for the Giants this off-season has been to build...

The New York Giants are getting ready for training camp, along with the rest of the NFC East. This is the fourth offensive position group in the NFC East Grading series, with only the interior offensive line and the quarterback position waiting to be graded. The Eagles have 23 points, and the Giants are right behind at 22; Dallas has 19, and Washington has 16.
How does it work, you may ask? It’s VERY complicated! The best positional group is assigned four points, and the “worst” receives one point. Let’s talk about the running backs in the NFC East!

Going all the way back to the final years of the Tom Coughlin era, the beginnings of NFL seasons have not been kind to the New York Giants.
Only twice since 2013 have the Giants gotten off to 2-0 starts. Not coincidentally, those were the only times in those 13 seasons that the team reached the playoffs. Giants seasons, or at least the idea of playing important games in them, have generally been over by the end of October. Sometimes, by the end of September.
Below, a look at how the Giants began (and ended) each of the last 13...

New York Giants fans want to believe their team will be markedly improved from the 2025 team that went 4-13. If it is, ESPN analysts do not believe that will be because the 2026 lineup is that much better than the one the Giants fielded at the beginning of the 2025 season.
ESPN has ranked the Giants’ 2026 projected starting lineup 23rd out of 32 teams. A season ago, ESPN ranked the team’s projected starting lineup 27th. So, better in 2026. Not, though, that much better.
Below, comments from ESPN about the roster along with some of my thoughts.

It was a surprise to some that first-year New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh wanted to tinker with the roster rather than engage in a wholesale rebuild.
And for the most part, the roster was not overhauled this year. There was, perhaps, more churn than usual for an NFL team, but that’s to be expected with a new coach. But there were a few positions where there was a major change.
The linebacker position is the obvious exception to that statement, as pointed out by ESPN’s Jordan Raanan in ESPN’s poll of the NFC beat writers.
The upgrade...
