Footballguys Staff's NY Giants, Team Mood and Players We're In or Out On Footballguys Staff Published 07/01/2022

As we race toward August, Footballguys.com will look at one team per day with our extremely in-depth Team Reports and our quick-hitting Team Mood and Players We're In and Out On, where we check out the overall mood of each team's offense and let you know the players we are in on (because they are great values at the cost it takes to acquire them) and who we're out on (because they are too expensive and won't have a good return on that investment).

Here are all of the Team Mood and Players We're In and Out On articles:
Arizona | Atlanta | Baltimore | Buffalo | Carolina | Chicago | Cincinnati | Cleveland | Dallas | Denver | Detroit | Green Bay | Houston | Indianapolis | Jacksonville | Kansas City | Las Vegas | LA Chargers | LA Rams | Miami | Minnesota | New England | New Orleans | NY Giants | NY Jets | Philadelphia | Pittsburgh | San Francisco | Seattle | Tampa Bay | Tennessee | Washington

Want a longer breakdown of how it's going in New York? Read on.

New York, Team Mood

  • Good - 2
  • Neutral - 8
  • Bad - 6

Staffers in a Good Mood

  • Phil Alexander: The offense has nowhere to go but up with Brian Daboll at the helm and a healthy group of skill players.
  • Clayton Gray: What's not to like about a better scheme, a better offensive line, and healthier skill position players?

Staffers in a Neutral Mood

  • Dan Hindery: Very wide range of outcomes with some talented pieces but a lot of question marks.
  • Dave Kluge: There are a lot of pieces on this offense but they might not fit together. Jones could take a step forward, but it's more likely that he's already shown us who he is.
  • Sigmund Bloom: But Good++ compared to last year. Anything is better than last year and the whole organization should feel a weight lifted.
  • Jeff Haseley: They have potential with Brian Daboll's offense but it all lies on Daniel Jones. The success of the offense hinges on Jones. So goes Jones, so goes the offense.
  • Jeff Bell: On paper, this offense has pieces, an elite running back, depth through the wide receiver corps, Evan Neal at tackle, and an innovator in Brian Daboll.
  • Christian Williams: It is fair to be cautiously optimistic for the offense, but everything falls on Daniel Jones to take another step forward.
  • Ben Cummins: Daniel Jones is reportedly healthy and Saquon Barkley is stating he’s more confident in his health. Brian Daboll makes this offense intriguing.
  • Jordan McNamara: New head coach Brian Daboll and GM Joe Schoen deserve lenience.

Staffers in a Bad Mood

  • Jason Wood: Brian Daboll has a long history of underwhelming play-calling before he got to coach Josh Allen. He's no miracle worker.
  • Sam Wagman: But there is room for hope with the coaching and front office additions.
  • Andy Hicks: There has been way too much turnover and poor hiring decisions. The best way to destroy a young quarterback is to fill his head with new ideas every offseason.
  • Ryan Weisse: Too much turnover but not at quarterback, where they need it most.
  • James Brimacombe: Maybe between bad and neutral. I like the idea of Daniel Jones and a healthy Saquon Barkley and Kenny Golladay. Just doesn't feel like it will happen.
  • Craig Lakins: There is a reason for optimism with Brian Daboll's arrival, but I need to see it to believe that there will be added fantasy value here.
