New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen speaks during the pre-draft press conference at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center in East Rutherford on Wednesday, April 20, 2022. Nfl Ny Giants Coach And Gm Talk Nfl Draft
It’s been an ugly offseason for the New York Giants to date but that doesn’t necessarily mean the trend will continue. With their coaching staff now stabilized, the Giants enter free agency and the 2024 NFL draft relatively well-stocked with capital.
Currently, general manager Joe Schoen has around $21.8 million to work with and he could clear as much as $60 million will several precise cuts and restructures.
Then, in April’s draft, Schoen and the Giants will have seven picks to work with, including four in the top 70 (three in the top 50).
While that’s not enough to shore up all of their issues, it is enough to breed some level of optimism. At least in the mind of USA TODAY’s Doug Farrar, who recently named the Giants one of “10 NFL teams positioned to make major progress during 2024 offseason.”
A team looking to get to top of the NFC East may have to do so without free agent RB Saquon Barkley. The Giants, who need to get QB Daniel Jones right in 2024, currently have roughly $19 million to spend in free agency, pick sixth overall and own an extra second-rounder after dealing DL Leonard Williams to the Seattle Seahawks at last year’s trade deadline.
Considering the amount of negative press the Giants have received this offseason, it has to feel refreshing for fans to see a positive take, albeit it a small one.
