Giants Fans Reveal Shocking Draft Desire That Could Change the Team’s Future Forever
It’s also both expected and interesting that there’s little concern for the offense beyond the right guard position. After all, despite incredibly heavy investment — to the point where the Giants could have 8 first round picks vying for starting jobs if they select a defender in the first round this year — the defense was fans’ pain point last year.
The Giants were able to manufacture offense thanks to Jaxson Dart, Wan’Dale Robinson, Tyrone Tracy, and Devin Singletary. The media-wide concern over Jaxson Dart’s perceived recklessness that bordered on a moral panic, seems to have been replaced with a general insouciance. It’s deeply interesting that it’s just assumed the offense will be fine.
The answer seems to be “because Jaxson Dart.”
It’s true that teams often look to franchise quarterbacks to cover warts on their offense and allow them to invest elsewhere. And I do think it says something that fans and the media alike already expect Jaxson Dart to elevate everyone around him despite the fact that the only skill position player drafted before the 4th round is recovering from ACL and meniscus surgery. That’s the kind of faith engendered by the likes of Pat Mahomes, Josh Allen, or Matthew Stafford.
