Saquon Barkley Not Worried About New Deal

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley said he's not too worried about a new contract when asked about Panthers star running back Christian McCaffrey's four-year, $64 million deal.

Daniel Jones Focusing on Ball Security

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had a mostly encouraging rookie season in 2019, but there were some concerning signs. Chief among them were his 18 fumbles. While following stay-at-home orders, Jones has been working on various exercises to help him keep the ball in his hands before making throws. He told reporters he has […]

Giants Offense To Resemble Jason Garrett's

New York Giants head coach Joe Judge said that the offense is "not a carryover" from what the team did last season, and that it will be "similarly based" on what offensive coordinator Jason Garrett ran in Dallas. This makes sense as Judge is a former special team's coordinator so, he'll leave the offense in […]

Sleeping Giants: Why Daniel Jones and His Receivers Are Undervalued

The key to securing a fantasy football championship is to identify undervalued players before they become popular sleepers and shoot up draft boards. We also want to target offenses that are forced into shootouts due to porous defenses. The team that fits these criteria for 2020 is none other than the New York Giants. The […]

Rookie Running Backs Destined for Committees

Let's talk about everyone's favorite term when it comes to fantasy football: running back committees. I know committees get a bad rep, but the future of the NFL is running back committees. More and more teams have realized the path to NFL success is to use a one-two punch at running back instead of handing […]

Jabrill Peppers' Fifth-Year Option Picked Up

The New York Giants picked up the fifth-year option on linebacker/strong safety Jabrill Peppers on Wednesday. Pepper's 2021 salary will depend on whether he's awarded the safety price of roughly $7 million or the linebacker price of around $10.089 million. He came over last spring in the deal that sent receiver Odell Beckham Jr. to […]

Giants Pick Up Fifth-Year Option On Evan Engram

The New York Giants picked up the fifth-year option on tight end Evan Engram's rookie contract. The move protects Engram from being cut due to injury, which is important for a player like Engram who has missed a lot of time due to injury. The former first-round pick has missed 14 games in his first […]

Giants Place UFA Tender On Markus Golden

The New York Giants placed the rare UFA tender on defensive end/outside linebacker Markus Golden on Monday, according to a source. If Golden remains an unsigned free agent past July 22, he can only play for the Giants in 2020, who would maintain Golden's exclusive rights. The 29-year-old pass-rusher returned to double-digit sacks in 2019 […]

Giants Make Tae Crowder This Year's Mr. Irrelevant

The New York Giants used the 255th and final pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on Georgia linebacker Tae Crowder. Mr. Irrelevant is a great athlete who will be a backup while the Giants attempt to harness his pure athleticism. He needs help in coverage and struggles to shed blocks in the run game, so […]

T.J. Brunson Selected By Giants

The New York Giants added South Carolina inside linebacker T.J. Brunson with the 238th overall pick of the 2020 NFL Draft in the seventh round. Brunson is a physical off-ball linebacker, but he's not fast enough to play sideline-to-sideline and also doesn't thrive in coverage. Brunson will need to become more flexible and gain strength […]

Giants Select Defensive Back Help in Last Round

The New York Giants have selected Minnesota cornerback Chris Williamson with the No. 247 pick during the seventh round. He has quickness, length and solid ball skills, so he's worth a last-round selection. Williamson recorded 56 tackles, four tackles for loss and one interception during the 2019 season. He's a bit of a project, much […]

Giants Take Carter Coughlin With Pick No. 218

The New York Giants selected Minnesota outside linebacker Carter Coughlin with the 218th overall pick in the seventh round. Even while impressing at the NFL combine in February, Coughlin finds himself going in the last round of the draft.
