Giants’ 2022 draft class entering pivotal make-or-break season
NY Post
The Giants are about to change a lot of “incomplete” grades to “pass” or “fail.”
The rule of thumb in the NFL is to avoid grading a draft class until after three seasons.
Well, in many ways, the Giants’ 2024 season hinges on their 2022 draft class, with most of general manager Joe Schoen’s 11 picks either entering make-or-break years or being asked to ascend to bigger roles.
“It takes time. Guys have to develop,” Schoen said on April 30, 2022, after trying to add “versatility, competition and depth” in his first draft at the helm. “Hopefully as many of these guys turn into starters as we can, but we are not going to hand anybody anything.”
The time is now.
Here is the challenge for members of the pivotal class:

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s days in Milwaukee may be numbered.
Brian Daboll tried in his own way to get Abdul Carter on the right path.
Elden Campbell, a 15-year NBA veteran who spent the majority of his career playing with his hometown Los Angeles Lakers, has died, according to the Los Angeles Times. He was 57.
Shedeur Sanders has another potential challenger with the Browns.
The offseason signing of Vladislav Gavrikov became exponentially more important for the Rangers when Adam Fox was ruled out for the foreseeable future.
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.
It’s not you, it’s me.
