New York Giants
Who is going to take a step forward in 2025?
Projections for the the New York Giants’ 2025 season are pessimistic as of right now, though for good reason. The Giants haven’t shown that they’re able to be consistently competitive with the better teams in the NFL. But the flip side of that is that they’ve had tremendous roster turnover over the last couple years and fielded the fourth youngest roster in the NFL last year — even with Graham Gano.
A significant portion of the Giants’ roster are young players who are veterans on the cusp of their “prime”...

Could the Giants finally get a full season of competent play from a unit that has been a perennial problem?
The New York Giants have struggled for so long to put together a competent offensive line, and complaining about how awful the line is has become so ingrained into Giants’ fanhood that it is difficult to recognize viable offensive line play when it happens.
Maybe you blinked and missed it last season. Maybe you just didn’t recognize it when you saw it. For a while in 2024, though, the Giants had adequate offensive line play. Then, poof! In the blink...

Nabers is only Giant to make the list
In Pro Football Focus’s latest ranking of the NFL’s top 25 players under 25, wide receiver Malik Nabers comes in at No. 15. He is the only New York Giant on the list and a rising star who’s already changing the face of the franchise.
The list features dominant young talents. But Nabers holds his own with an 87.0 PFF grade and a 0.56 average Wins Above Replacement (WAR) since 2022, both elite-level metrics for his age group.
In fact, PFF points out that Nabers led the entire 2024 rookie wide receiver...

Big unknowns that could make or break fantasy seasons
The 2025 NFL schedule was released last week, and while it was easy to get distracted with some of the schedule release videos and get caught up in the analysis of each team’s slate, it was also a reminder that the 2025 season will be here before you know it. For those who play fantasy football, the gears are starting to turn.
Drafts for most season-long fantasy football leagues are still about three months away, but plenty of other leagues are already holding drafts – for example, rookie and start-up drafts...

At least one oddsmaker isn’t bullish on the Giants’ chances
The New York Giants are favored to win just one game in 2025, according to oddsmakers at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Here is a look at the early odds in each of the Giants’ 2025 games. It might be interesting to note how these change when we actually get to each individual game.
Line: Giants +7.5
I get it. The Commanders won 12 games and went to the playoffs last year, while the Giants won just three and went back to the drawing board....

Unlike Han Solo, I want to know the odds
The excitement surrounding the NFL’s annual schedule release has died down. We now know not only the New York Giants will be playing in 2025, but when they’ll be playing them.
The Giants’ schedule is daunting on paper, and we immediately began speculating on how the 2025 season will play out. Ed took the optimistic path and is predicting a 7-10 record for the Giants. Cynthia Frelund of NFL.com is modeling an average of 5.4 wins for the Giants.
Almost a year ago, I decided to take the human element out...

Rookie QB gives Daboll a chance to show his reputation for evaluating, developing quarterbacks is justified
Is New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll really a “dead man walking?” That is how Mike Tanier of the ‘Too Deep Zone’ substack described Daboll in answer to a recent mailbag question about NFL coaches under the most pressure in 2025.
The Giants face a brutal schedule that will make it something of a miracle if they don’t experience a third straight losing season with Daboll as head coach. NFC East fan bases in Washington and Dallas are already salivating at the idea...

The mail’s here!
Steve asks: If [Evan] Neal plays well at RG, do you think he returns to New York next season? I have my doubts he wants to come back to the Giants. But if he does, and has turned into a quality guard, that can be real progress for the iOL.
Ed says: Steve, right now it is not a guarantee that Evan Neal will be playing guard. Indications are that will be the case, but we won’t know for certain until media gets to watch an OTA toward the end of the month and we see for...

Pro Football Focus chooses nickel cornerback
Considering that the New York Giants were a 3-14 football team in 2024 it isn’t easy to identify underrated players from last season’s roster.
In identifying the most underrated players on every team’s roster, Pro Football Focus chose nickel cornerback Dru Phillips for the Giants.
PFF writes:
Phillips was thrust into a key role as a rookie, manning the slot and playing more than 600 defensive snaps in a potential sink-or-swim scenario for the third-round pick out of Kentucky. To Phillips’ credit, he performed at a high level despite missing some time with...
