Dave Gettleman’s bold NFL Draft moves reveal his Giants plan
NY Post
Waiting a year, for anything, is not for the impatient among us.
Many of the seeds sown this past weekend by Dave Gettleman will not begin to peek out of the dirt until the 2022 NFL Draft, as the Giants cagily gained extra picks in the first, third and fourth rounds. In a win-now season up ahead, the general manager maximized future assets, and that is the sign of a team-first executive. Gettleman’s “batting average’’ — the term used by co-owner John Mara — must continue to rise for the 70-year old to return in 2022, when those extra draft picks — akin to pure gold — are utilized or bundled and dealt. The Giants are 5-11 and 4-12 and 6-10 in Gettleman’s three years. Everyone in the organization believes they got it right with Joe Judge as head coach. It is time to win more than they lose, and how third-year quarterback Daniel Jones navigates through his critical third season and how much of a true playoff contender the Giants actually are — not the farce of the 2020 NFL East slog — determines whether or not Gettleman gets to leave on his own terms.

Brian Daboll tried in his own way to get Abdul Carter on the right path.

Suddenly, someone had hit a rewind button and everyone had been transported back seven months. It was early spring instead of late fall, it was broiling hot outside the arena walls and not freezing cold. Everyone was back at TD Garden. There were 19,156 frenzied fans on their feet begging for blood, poised for the kill.
After leaving practice early on Monday to be evaluated for a lower-body injury, Adam Edstrom did not suit up Tuesday night against the Stars.
