Quote from: LennG on Today at 07:32:35 PMWhen I started this thread it was about the OL and, as usual, it has ended up being a referendum on Daniel Jones, like most other threads.
If anyone cares, what about our 'new and impr oved' OL? Is PFF right and do we still have the worst OL in the league or have we made some significant improvements to make it, at least, average?
Lenn,
I am not surprised by the ranking. The Giants offseason additions were not top echelon guys. Thomas is the only guy on the line with any credentials for "rankings".
I think if they had traded for or signed a pro-bowl caliber OL they might have been ranked higher. They signed a lot of mediocrity and added that to a group that mostly rated worse than mediocre.
I don't know if they will be better. I think they could be. It seemed like most of the signees were better pass blockers than run blockers. Maybe they can find one thing they do well and have an identity. That would be an improvement in my opinion. Last year they couldn't run or pass block. If they pass block well, they might be able to set up the run via the pass.
I'll believe it when it I see it.
