New York Giants
Good morning, New York Giants fans!
As the right tackle for the New York Giants, Jermaine Eluemunor knows how to measure the loyalties and passions of a fan base. He works for a flagship NFL franchise in the league’s biggest market, and he just got a close-up look...

Quarterback Jaxson Dart is the New York Giants most important player.
I won’t spoil what Ed has to say about Dart in an upcoming piece, but considering quarterback is the most important position in the major American sports, Dart has to be the most important player on the Giants’ roster. As John Harbaugh said shortly after being hired, it’s all about the quarterback and you need to build around him.
But have the Giants done a good job of that? Are the Giants surrounding Dart with the pieces he needs for the offense to succeed?
Their offensive line was solid...

Sometimes, it is impossible to understand how much a player means to a team until that player is no longer there. That has been the case for the New York Giants and star left tackle Andrew Thomas in recent seasons.
Thomas is a rare, precious commodity in the NFL. He is a set-it-and-forget-it left tackle who can be left alone on an island to handle the best pass rushers in the game.
Thomas checks in at No. 2 on our list of ‘most important Giants of 2026’. Argue about the placement on our list of Thomas, Brian Burns, and Malik...

The New York Giants are gearing up for training camp in July. Each team in the NFC East has restructured its roster in hopes of success in the upcoming 2026 season. This is the fourth post in our position-by-position look at the NFC East; we have reviewed the cornerbacks, safeties, linebackers, EDGE rushers so far.
The team with the best positional group is assigned four points, and the “worst” receives one point. It is a complex formula, up there with E=MC², but we’ll attempt to deliver the information in a palatable manner, and I’m sure it will be well received...

The 2027 NFL Draft class is expected to be a very talented one at multiple positions, and defensive tackle is one of them.
Oregon’s A’Mauri Washington considered declaring for the 2026 NFL Draft, and could have been a high second-round, or even first-round, selection had he come out. Instead, he returned to school with the rest of Oregon’s veteran defensive front.
The New York Giants were widely expected to add a defensive tackle highly in the 2026 NFL Draft, particularly after trading star nose tackle Dexter Lawrence. Instead, the Giants waited until the sixth round to add a defensive tackle...

Will New York Giants star wide receiver Malik Nabers be ready to start the 2026 season, or won’t he? Whenever he is ready to get on the field, how close will Nabers be to his dominant 2024 form, when he set a franchise record with 109 receptions?
That seems to be the biggest issue hanging over the Giants as we await the opening of training camp.
The questions and Nabers’ importance are why Nabers is No. 4 on our list of the ‘most important Giants players of 2026’.
There is an argument to be made that Nabers is the Giants’...

Brian Burns is a terrific football player coming off his best NFL season, a 16.5-sack Pro Bowl year. His value to the Giants on the field is obvious to anyone watching the games.
Burns is more than just a player to the Giants, though. He is a respected veteran leader — maybe even a beloved one by his teammates.
Even with Dexter Lawrence on the roster, by the end of last season, Burns had become the voice of the defense, and probably its heart and soul. He had, truthfully, become the most important veteran voice on the roster. With Lawrence...

The New York Giants were closer to competing than their record would suggest a year ago, but close to winning still isn’t a win.
There were a wide variety of reasons why the Giants were able to give playoff caliber teams all they could handle, but not quite close out games when they had the chance.
One of the biggest keys to making the leap from close losses to closing out games will be for the under-the-radar players to step up. This week we asked you which of the Giants’ less heralded players will establish themselves as the hidden gem...

Abdul Carter did not have the rookie season the New York Giants dreamed about when they made him the No. 3 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Carter wasn’t horrible in his rookie season. He just wasn’t Micah Parsons or Will Campbell, which is the kind of player the Giants believed they were drafting.
Carter’s season was most notable for the two late-season benchings he received from interim head coach Mike Kafka. One benching was for missing a walk-through practice. The second benching was for missing a special teams meeting.
Various reports indicated that these types of issues had...

Taj Siddiqi asks: I know that Reese is a rookie and we will learn about his performance as the season progresses. With regard to Edmunds, besides his size, what aspects of his skill sets made Giant’s think that he is an upgrade over Okereke. Of course we need to trust the decision coaching staff made but in your opinion as a knowledgeable and keen observer of the game, why did the Giants prefer Edmunds over Okereke?
Ed says: Taj, there are a number of factors that went into that decision. Size is one that cannot be understated. Edmunds is 6-foot-4⅝,...
