Fix Your Franchise: New York Giants | NFL Stock Exchange

[@AxelMTG]

It would be interesting to do an inverse of this show where you look at the consistently winning teams and see how they got there. From there you can pull out lessons learned for roster building, drafting, head coaching/GM hires, and ownership involvement. I think it would be a good reference for the fix your franchises in the future.

[@henryperazza4865]

I think you chalked up a lot of my thoughts about the Giants in this pod! If the Giants end up picking at 7, I think they need to do whatever it takes to trade up for Cam Ward. Jacksonville or New England are not going to be picking QBs, so trade partners might be there (Jacksonville has shown willingness to trade down too). It might not be pretty, but Cam Ward is my QB1 from this draft and if you get a chance to him to learn from Daboll with someone like Andy Dalton holding down the fort until he's ready, I'm more than willing to flip some later picks to get Cam into NY

You guys are too harsh on Schmitz and Mcfadden especially Michah hes been a decent starter and a good pick in the 5th round of that first draft. And JMS although disappointing hasn't been a disaster either.

[@iambritoo]

Wait what, when Andrew Thomas was in Oline was bad?! Do you watch their games or just go off pff grades?? Oline was far better this year that AT was in and Oline was consistent.

[@ghoulio]

So you guys are pretty spot on about everything...except the whole Saquon take. He is one of my fave players in the league, I have his jersey. Two things with him though. First he never EVER should have been drafted second overall. That entire draft had so much talent at real impact positions like O-Line, cornerback and most of all...Quarterback. We could have traded back to 6th, gotten a tonne of extra draft capital and drafted Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson (for example). Secondly without the revisionist history, a running back simply cant make a bad team into a contender. If he was still on the Giants we might be 3-6 instead of 2-7 and he wouldnt be having the career year he is having. Running Backs like him are the last piece you add to really put a decent team over the top (like the 49ers did with McCaffrey), not a piece you build around. He was wasted here and despite how much I hate the Eagles, I am honestly happy he is finally on a team that can actually use his talent and skill set. The main thing with this team is that it cant move forward with Daniel Jones on the roster. We have a big enough sample size now. DJ might have the tools but there is one thing he isnt....and that is a winner. He has no idea how to elevate his team and how to win games. So, despite being a Giants fan since 1986, I simply cant watch my team until he is gone as there is just zero hope. Knowing our luck DJ will get hurt next game, his injury clause will kick in then Devito will win just enough games to make sure that we can't draft a QB next year and we will be stuck in the quick sand for yet another year. Cant wait.

[@nathanroyster1324]

remember, hindsight is 20/20. Josh allen was an Anthony Richardson level project out of college and people thought Lamar Jackson was a runningback. He was the most sure bet at the time and they weren't wrong. The issue these franchises run into is they refuse to build around their elite talent if it's not a QB. Tennessee nearly made it to the SB with a team built entirely around Derrick Henry because they recognized they had a generational talent at RB. Stephanski won a bunch of games with a team built around Nick Chubb and didn't want Deshaun Watson. They could've done that with Saquon. He's that good IMO

[@adrianbuck8772]

Agree about the RB Statement. Barkley, Jacobs or Henry didnt transform the Eagels, Packers or Ravens from bad to good, they improved already good Situations into something better. Similar to Gibbs with the Lions or Bijan with the Falcons. Having an solid or better o line and solid or better receiving core is necessary to get the value out of higher level RBs. And the Giants need atleast 1 Upgrade at WR and 2 Upgrades at the o line (new guys or development guys already on the roster) to have that.

[@TampaBayTre]

When I was criticizing not having Saquon I was more referencing how I think it’s hard for Mara to watch him be great for the Eagles. I do agree with you that I wouldn’t have paid him either. As good as he is this year for Philly, it wouldn’t have been the same production in NY

[@ghoulio]

@@nathanroyster1324 Oh for sure. All I was trying to say is they had so many options and taking a running back at 2 was the literal worst on. Saquon is an amazing talent but we saw him year after year get like 15 runs of 2 yards or less then 1-2 x 20+ yard run every game because our line was so bad. Running backs can be next level but without a good run blocking scheme or offensive line plus zero ariel threat he cant do anything (which is what we saw outside of his rookie year).

[@ghoulio]

@@adrianbuck8772 I think the issue is we just need so much. Our biggest weakness is this idea that we can win and rebuild at the same time. We need to stop screwing around and actually rebuild. If you cant get a good QB then just pick best player available and then tank for Arch Manning haha.

[@chrishunt9675]

I think the main point being missed is when you take over as GM, there’s an evaluation period of existing scouts, staff, players and process. That’s a Five year process right there. This entire organization has almost been retooled in 3 years. I trust Daboll n Schoen to pick the QB, they wanted Maye and Daniel’s (Accurate) Bricillo, great hire will have input of Oline going fwd. Bowen most sacks in the league same on D. They need at least 5 years.

[@j.r.3945]

Respectfully ya sleeping on a few guys for the giants. Okereke is a good lb, I wouldn’t give up on banks at all you see the ability he’s probably gonna settle into being a cb2 but that’s still valuable, Theo Johnson is looking solid so far, still sleeping on JMS, McFadden isn’t a must keep but he hasn’t been bad, Kayvon is a better player than ojulari and the big reason you don’t keep azeez is because he’s legit NEVER healthy. I wouldn’t put stock in a contract year for an often injured player. He’s also a complete liability in the run game whereas Kayvon at least has the ability he’s just inconsistent. Other than that slayton isn’t a guy you’d want to move. Behind him there are no truly complete WRs aside from nabers and I’d want a rookie coming in to have two quality WRs to throw too especially one who’s a veteran on the team

Fire Daboll and Schoen Hire Vrabel Stefanski (if he's fired), Pederson or even McDaniels as the OC Cut Daniel Jones Draft Cam Ward and sign Matthew Stafford

[@michaelspillane7625]

I think it makes sense for Schoen to get a chance to get a QB - him hitting this draft out of the park seems like a saving grace. but I think Patience is key. we have been super impatient since Coughlin... I am on board with seeing what happens if Daboll and Schoen can get their guy. to quote Schoen himself, "Scared money dont make money" get your guy and prove you can do this.

[@DoABarrowRoll]

Sorry guys brevity is not really in my vocabulary so I apologize in advance for the book you are about to read (or completely skip over that's understandable) lorewise I think you guys pretty much hit it. It all really stems from the failure of the regime to transition from Coughlin/Eli. Coughlin's time was coming to an end, it wasn't bad to replace him when they did, but just replacing him with Ben McAdoo (partly because he told them he was on his way to an interview with the Eagles for the job that eventually went to Doug Pederson so the Giants panicked and just offered him the job) and keeping everything else the same was not great. At that point Jerry Reese was on his last legs really, and McAdoo was the final nail in that coffin. Then instead of doing something smart and forging a new path forward, the Giants decided the best way forward was to hire Dave Gettleman to basically take the Giants back to their glory days. It ended similarly to how 2022 went just minus the wins; that year really set them back, between sticking with Eli one more year and drafting Saquon so early. Then they stink again in 2018 and have to pivot from the plan they laid out when Gettleman got here to drafting a QB early and a more standard rebuild. Trading Odell is kind of synonymous with Saquon walking in free agency to some extent. That plan never really got going as Gettleman threw Shurmur under the bus to save his own ass. And Mara finishes the Gettleman era off by hiring Joe Judge, who was not Gettleman's first choice (Gettleman wanted Brandon Staley, if I'm remembering correctly, which wasn't necessarily a better idea but at least would have been organizational alignment). Judge and Gettleman did not work well together and their two years of disaster class led to Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll. Then 2022 happens, they pay Daniel Jones, and the rest is history, more or less. on Joe Schoen: I think so much just gets fixed by having a QB this team can actually believe in and does elevate the team around him at all. I think certain players that have been less than ideal so far probably benefit a lot from that. For example, Jalin Hyatt's deep speed would be a lot more useful with a QB that they trust to throw downfield more consistently. JMS probably at least looks a bit better with a QB that can escape the pocket laterally looking to throw rather than looking down at the rush and running up through the A/B gap every time. Deonte Banks might "care" more if the offense can actually be complementary and produce points. Kayvon Thibodeaux can maybe be more productive as a pass rusher when the team is scoring points and actually leading in games, instead of running 68% of their offensive snaps while trailing and just 11% of their offensive snaps while leading. 45% of their defensive snaps while trailing and 24% of their defensive snaps while leading. He "fell into the trap" of having to draft replacements for players he brought in or drafted not just because they didn't work out, but because the timeline for them to work out got completely thrown out the window when Jones came out in 2023, stunk, then got hurt twice. When it comes to replacing him with a really strong talent evaluator like the ones Trevor listed: It's hard not to feel like that's basically saying "well Joe Schoen didn't work so let's go find another Joe Schoen and hope that works." When we were having this conversation 3 years ago before Schoen was hired and it was like him, Adam Peters, Joe Hortiz, etc, this was all the same stuff that sold a lot of people on Schoen. He's a talent evaluator background, worked his way up through college scouting and pro personnel and then AGM with the Bills over 20+ years, winning team background in Buffalo, etc etc. For all the success stories about Spytek or whoever, I'm sure the same success stories exist around Schoen. That's not to say that Schoen is better than those guys or the logic doesn't make sense, it just bears noting, I think. The Giants would be (fairly) firing Schoen for results and then looking for another guy with all the traits they saw in Joe Schoen that they just think might get better results. It would be fair and reasonable, you don't keep a guy if you really don't think he can get the results, but it's just hard for me to come to terms with firing Joe Schoen without really being able to pinpoint why he failed but the next guy will succeed. That's the same reason I really like Connor's take on the HC situation: I think if you're going for Belichick or another hotshot OC, what's the point? To me the top 3 HCs that would make any sense would be Vrabel, Minter, and Flores. And each one has to come with a strong offensive staff. If you're going to fire a HC/GM, I feel like there's always going to be certain things you are looking for in their replacement that were lacking in the guy you fired. Which makes it a really weird chicken/egg scenario with the QB. I'm personally of the opinion that if the Giants can get the QB position right, then whatever GM/HC they have will work out. But if the GM/HC aren't good enough can they get the QB right? Is it reasonable to trust Schoen/Daboll after they paid Jones (and even if ownership played a role, Schoen and Daboll also wanted to do it. If they didn't they could have pushed back on ownership; Mara wanted really badly to keep Saquon but Schoen stood his ground)? That's largely why I'm more or less indifferent on it. I can't convince myself 100% either way. I just need the QB situation sorted out and I think everything else will fall into place. Kafka is gone either way and he's likely the only one that would go unless the whole staff is gone. He's in the last year of his deal, Daboll pulled playcalling from him at times last year when they were struggling, it is rumoured he was supposed to be Seattle's OC instead of Ryan Grubb but the Giants blocked it. Both the DC and STC are new this year and likely will stay. I don't think anyone wants to go through 3 DCs/STCs in 3 years. The Wink situation last year led us to Shane Bowen this year who has been generally solid. The run defense is still struggling, especially with not great run defenders on the edge, not having a good DL2 next to Dex, and the DBs being generally pretty poor outside of Andru Phillips. But the Giants lead the NFL in sacks right now and are a respectable middle of the pack defense in scoring and passing yards per attempt, despite their kindergarten secondary and Deonte Banks and Cor'Dale Flott being the main boundary corners. Michael Ghobrial is the new STC, he was with the Jets before this year, and he has generally been fine. ST won us a game in Seattle with the blocked FG, and maybe cost us a game in Pittsburgh, with a punt that outkicked the coverage leading to a PR TD. But nothing to be fired over. Chances are after Kafka, Shea Tierney is next up, he's currently the passing game coordinator/QB coach. Daboll brought Tierney with him from Alabama to Buffalo, then from Buffalo to the Giants. When Daboll pulled play calling from Kafka last year at times, Tierney was often the one they tried. I believe Tierney was an OC at the Senior Bowl in 2024, they're very aligned in that sense. Eluemunor played guard in camp until they officially pulled the plug on Neal. Neal was at RT1 in camp, then reaggravated his foot/ankle injury from last year, Eluemunor moved out to RT, and the rest is history. I like Trevor's targets, but the injury with Godwin is a little too offputting for me. This team has had a history of investing in players coming off major injuries and not being successful. Tee Higgins might be too steep a cost. Maybe the Giants could go the Diontae Johnson/DeAndre Hopkins/Amari Cooper route, maybe that would make more sense. I'd love to get Stefon Diggs back with Brian Daboll if the money and the age curve stuff makes sense. I think needs-wise you guys overlooked IDL. The group behind Dexter Lawrence is nowhere near good enough and adding another complement to that room instead of relying on Rakeem Nunez-Roches, Jordon Riley, DJ Davidson, Elijah Chatman, and Armon Watts would probably be big help. Take some attention away from Dex if you can and maybe make some more run stops from the interior. I think Pinnock will actually be a reasonable priority to keep, for hopefully not that much (like 4-5m AAV, in the mold of like a Josh Metellus/Taylor Rapp/Alohi Gilman/Jordan Whitehead). Letting him go to spend another 2nd rounder on a safety kind of feeds into Trevor's previous point about having to draft to replace players they brought in, in my eyes, whether that's Pinnock or Dane Belton.

[@davidsheehan3966]

The giants already did the whole coaching staff rework. DC Wink Martindale was fired. OC Mike Kafka had playcalling taken away and given to Daboll. The OL coach was fired. I believe some other assistants were fired as well

[@6hazar]

- Davis Webb as the OC. - Glenn Schumann as DC. - Daboll and Schoen stay, hoping this draft will be like the previous one. - Sign Godwin, Paulson Adebo, a guard, and a veteran QB. - Draft Ward, who they'll need to trade up for! Draft more interior guys, DBs, and maybe another receiver. *Something to ponder is that Daboll needs to give the playcalling to the OC, he just needs to manage the team. I get that he has DJ as his QB, but some of his play calls have been straight-up HELL. Also, do we trust Schoen to draft a young quarterback? What makes you think he'll be good at it? And if they fuck up (which is most likely happening), and if they're gone, the drafted QB is in a new system, and we're set back for another three years. If they both stay, we're giving Dabes and Joe ANOTHER TWO YEARS?

Trevor, I think you’ve been reading OTC wrong for a while. I’ve noticed this before so I want to point it out. You don’t subtract dead cap from cap savings, you subtract savings from the cap number to get dead cap. So if the giants have 48mil, then DJ’s dead cap is 22mil and savings is 19mil, them the cap doesn’t go down by 3mil, it goes up 19mil to 67mil because the $41mil total cap number is already counting against the cap before the cut. Play around with the calculator for 5 seconds and you’ll confirm this. I just thought I’d point this out because it’s come up in multiple episodes now.

[@jacob5700]

I think it's worth considering who'd be drafting ahead of the Giants and how willing they'd be to trade back. There are a lot of QB needy teams and if the Giants pick at 6 or 7 I don't think they are getting any of Ward, Sanders or Milroe.

[@Mochasin]

As a giants fan ive been arguing the same shit about Joe Scheon, i would have no problem moving on from him and keeping Daboll. - handled barkley poorly, i know people say dont pay RBs but in this case you 100% pay him over Jones even taking just that season into context. - the Jones contract is pretty bad since i 100% believe even at the time no team is givinf him that contract if you let him hit free agency. -as a talent evaluator i just dont think he's great you guys mentioned his drafts but if you also look at his free agencies and trades you see; • waited to sign another CB when everyone knew the secondary was a problem • waited to pay darius slayton when he is obviously a talent WR with a bad QB • let Tyrod Taylor go for Drew Lock as a backup QB when the previous season Tyrod look better then Jones • Traded up for Banks (im not selling on banks yet just think in that draft it wasnt neccessary) and Traded up for Hyatt

After the Saints episode, we need an episode about the Miami Dolphins. They're 2-6 right now, face the Rams in LA next Monday, and have a TOUGH schedule in late november/december: @ Packers, @ Texans, @ Jets, vs 49ers. Chris Grier has been the Dolphins' GM since 2016 (he's been on the franchise for 25 years) and survived 3 different coaching changes. They have an expensive and injury prone roster, half their secondary will hit free agency, their Top3 pass rushers are currently injured, they have holes on the offensive line. Plus, they can't win big games, went to the playoffs just 5 times in this century and their last playoff win came in 2000. That's the definition of institutional failure.

I'm not a Giants fan myself, but since I believe that a lot of young QBs are just not given a fair shot, I've found myself defending Daniel Jones from time to time, but at this point the writing is just on the wall. And even if you make the argument about a fair shot and wonder whether Daniel Jones could've been better elsewhere...i imagine he could have, but it's abundantly clear that he's not the answer for the Giants. They are a prime example of how much QBs matter. Yes the Giants have had loads of struggles, but imagine how much better you'd feel about this team if at least QB was sorted out. I'm a Saints fan, and I understand you're doing one of these for the Saints? I wonder what you'll say about that, because as a fan who is at least somewhat in touch with what's going on with the Saints, I have pretty clear ideas of what I think should happen and what I feel like will actually happen. Also I don't think there's a quick fix for our situation, so I wonder what you'll draw up!

[@nd-xx9cd]

Roster is way better than 2022. Jones has been ass. Oline is better, dline is better, WR is better and we are younger. Money is being allocated to premium positions not RB and safety. Schoen absolutely needs to draft better. Find a good qb and watch how quickly things turn around.

[@watchmedicine7747]

Also Dave Gettleman is a talent evaluation GM..Drafted Saquon/Dexter/Andrew Thomas /Xavier McKinney…Please let’s not go full circle here …I’ll just watch Bobby skinner ..It’s hard to focus on a franchise when two guys don’t know the franchise deep enough

[@nd-xx9cd]

Yeah clearly not super knowledgeable on the franchise. I like Connor a lot but this is pretty surface level

[@emiliob12]

When are you going to do the panthers 🙁

[@j.r.3945]

In fairness McFadden has been starting for the giants for a while now and hasn’t been bad. Not amazing but not bad if you actually watch him play. He just misses too many tackles that’s kind of the big issue but he’s been decent for tbem

[@benjackson856]

can't believe you didn't cold open with the combine fight bit lol

[@sknight43]

I know people are high on Daboll, but I can’t help but feel like this is similar to Saleh w/ Zach Wilson where Zach took all the blame for the bad parts of the team, while Saleh got all the credit for the good. And then we found out that even with Zach gone the team still had serious flaws. Zach Wilson and Daniel Jones aren’t good QBs, but I feel like a lot of people are overlooking issues with the line and lack of weapons and blaming it all on the QBs.

[@alexallegood1040]

Nahh there are times when Daniel Jones just doesnt want to win. But Daboll did go for two when he only needed 1 and bc of that the defense didnt know what it needed to do to win the game.There for gave up a long drive

[@macpluto12]

Can't wait until the Saints draft cam ward next week

[@nd-xx9cd]

Why would they fire the d coordinator? The d has been solid. While Playing with a putrid offense. Does this guy on the left watch any giants football?

[@OGTakes]

It’s absolutely terrifying that people still defend Daniel jones I know our whole team is bad but he limits our offense and our play calling so much because he’s such a liability and is just a bad nfl QB and people want to blame Daboll for having to call a middle school offense for a terrible QB with a below average offensive line, not everything is going to be perfect so Daniel jones can play like a top 20 quarterback it’s absolutely disgusting what Daniel jones does to this offense and team and coaching staff AND HES PROBABLY GOING TO GET EVERYONE FIRED AGAIN their are so many holes in this team but the biggest is DANIEL JONES

[@alexallegood1040]

Yeah IM WITH you. Daniel Jones I thought could be a good qb but there are times when he plays like he doesnt want to win. I call it disassociation

[@michaeldymzarov5078]

I have been waiting five years for a comment like this one. Danny Drops wasn't good in college and he's never been good in the NFL. He actually makes everyone else around him worse. I would gladly pay him $9M/yr for two years to go away. They better bench him soon, they don't want to be saddled with another years of his salary because of injury...

[@nicholasgutin8577]

our whole team is in fact not bad lol it’s literally just the secondary and qb position 💀

[@lucrative6477]

What makes jones so bad? By most rating he’s middle of the pack, outplaying multiple all pro and high lot paid qbs. He’s certainly not the reason they are losing.

[@nathanroyster1324]

they should've built around Saquon the way Tennessee built around Henry. Idiots let a generational talent walk to their rival so they could build around their clearly below average QB. Losing football

[@33_milly93]

As a Bengals fan, I hope we can get Daboll or Brady

[@shawnskylark]

Connor's a sadist putting Darnold on the Giants, like has he suffered enough😂

[@ObamaBeenBoolin]

The Vikings won by losing to the Giants in 22. They tricked the Giants into signing Kones to a big extension.

[@johnschmitt6271]

GM candidates Jon-Eric Sullivan and Milt Hendrickson of the Packers. Didn't mention them during the Jets because the optics of "GB East" after Rodgers. But those guys should at least be getting interviews.

[@lucrative6477]

“The rest of the draft you get nothing out of” …. Then proceeds to name 2 of the giants best players on defense lol. These ppl don’t watch football lol.

[@riggz46]

Im not sure if we draft a qb this upcoming draft. Who's a franchise changer? Do we sign someone like a Sam Darnold and try accumulating picks for the 2026 qb draft class? Regardless yes we need to move on from DJ as much as I do admire his toughness it's not translating to scores

[@bigchungus2030]

1st round cam ward 2nd round nussmeier 3rd round quinn

[@ajkatz9279]

as a Bears fan, you guys should at least consider Matt Eberflus as a DC candidate when doing these moving forward. gonna be surprised if he sticks at HC for Chicago. Flus has never been a good HC, but hes been a good DC basically his entire tenure, and i expect him to land a DC job for sure.

[@jeffreybleau7808]

For a draft show, that I love, your analysis of Schoens 2022 draft is just terrible. Everyone had Kavon going one or two, until the last week when Travon Walker popped up. Even more crazy was how everyone said. Evan was a steel, and should’ve gone instead of Ikky to Carolina. Who also has not done very well. Cordell flat was the youngest player in the draft, and has taken time to develop into a serviceable second or third corner. You can’t ask much more from a third round pick. Daniel Bellinger is all you can ask for from a fourth round pick, Dane Belton is a pretty good third safety, and you completely glossed over Micah McFadden. Mike McFadden has done fantastic work for the Giants in the middle of the defense. Take away Evan, and the Giants got four starters, three back ups that play at least 30 to 40% of the snaps,and two offensive lineman they have to develop. You guys know how much you can get from a draft, and having that much come out of one draft is awesome.

[@lorenzoisgood]

Yes, it really does take two to do the actual tango

[@drewforsyth1993]

The reason why the Lions didn't trade for Ojulari is that he doesn't fit the physical mold of what they're looking for in an ED.

[@alexallegood1040]

I like the Giants organization standpoint, it's just the team hasn't come together yet

[@jackpabich763]

Unrelated to this video, why do so many positions have “back” in their name?

[@chrishunt9675]

Trading Azeez for a 5th pick makes 0 sense imo. You’d probably select a pass rusher in the draft at that spot who would be much worse than a 24 yr old Ojulari. What’s the thought process? For a 2nd or 3rd, sign me up. 4-7 not much point. Injuries happen which is why he has 6 sacks.

[@knowledgeuntamed9177]

Do Da Bears Next

[@matjohnson8074]

How much are failures for players to adapt to the nfl on the organization vs on the player? Its wild to me remembering evan neal being regarded as a sure bet franchise tackle, to all of a sudden not being playable anywhere on the line.

[@Rishisharma-ke8iy]

i wouldn’t fire the dc, i think the giants defense has been good this year. i really think if they had an average qb the gaints would be right around .500 they’ve been competitive in most games this season in spite of jones.

[@j.r.3945]

Jermaine has been really solid for the giants. Let’s not act like this is actually his worst season. Watch tape grades aren’t everything especially pff grades. He’s a solid starter on film and there is no world where saving 4mil is worth losing him. None. At all.

[@emillachheb-slatwinski1661]

Saints have to be next right?

[@baconlord_FGC]

Need you guys to do a Bears fix your franchise where you just reassure me that Ben Johnson is coming to the rescue for an hour and a half.

[@imhotepnixon]

Nah Cowboys first my guy you had your moment last year

[@baconlord_FGC]

@imhotepnixon I don't even want a detailed episode. I just want them to tell me it's going to be ok
