Deandre Baker isn't even in the NFL. It was just a bad pick. Through and through. He's currently playing in the UFL after getting waived by the Chiefs (who seem to like NYG castoffs). Noted as being "lazy" in his preparation at Georgia (and cruised by on pure skill).
JPP/Chad Jones - yeah, Ed pointed out the issues with "bad luck" and the like. They were reckless/careless.
Evan Engram magically became healthy after leaving the Giants.
Owa Odighizuwa - he came out of college of with hip issues. That's part of the reason he dropped.
Tunsil/Collins - there's no telling if the Giants would've drafted either. I know that Coughlin LOVED Flowers.
All in all - the Giants did get a rough break with injuries in terms of severity (see Cruz, Terrell Thomas). However, the NFL is a violent and vicious game. Injuries are an unfortunate result.
