Giants’ Front Office Says Team Will Be ‘Competitive Week In and Week Out’

Team leaders are raising expectations as the club pursues roster upgrades and prepares for the season opener.

Overview

  • General manager Joe Schoen said Wednesday he expects the Giants to be competitive “week in and week out” and that he likes the roster built with new head coach John Harbaugh.
  • Schoen and reporting credit Harbaugh with bringing stability and taking an active role in personnel choices that reshaped the roster this offseason.
  • The team projects clear upgrades to the offense after trading for draft capital and settling its line, depth in the backfield, and an improved wide receiver room.
  • Giants leaders acknowledge key shortfalls remain, most notably interior defensive line depth and the lack of a proven No. 1 cornerback, and they say adding a defensive tackle is an immediate priority.
  • The stance raises expectations after three poor seasons (13–38), sits against a FanDuel over/under of 7.5 wins, and follows others signing recently released Giants players which suggests recognized roster depth.
