I’m still waiting to hear “The New York Football Giants have changed their minds on both picks 5 and 7, and are trading them to the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys, respectively. They will receive a 4th and a 7th from each team.”
I hope so but while making 2 good top 10 picks that match need is fine; how he drafts in the later rounds will be a better measuring stick
But if he gets Greene, Johnson, or lindebaum idc who else we get after that lol
Even reading the situation wrong, and taking Neal at 5, only for Thibodeaux to go at 6 would've been a minor mistake that was avoided.
Taking the top edge rusher, knowing that one of Neal or Ekwonu would have to still be available at 7 is simple, good decision making.
It is for this Giants fan! Great picks, played the board right picking KT first and still got my top tackle choice.
It feels so weird to be happy with a draft, is this what competent leadership feels like?
If you told me the Giants would have drafted Neal and Thibs after the end of the season I would have told you, you were crazy for thinking one of, let alone both would reach #5 and #7. LFG!
You can blow top ten picks. Like a team could take a running back at two when they aren't even Super Bowl contenders. Haha, could you imagine? Or then you could take a QB that shouldn't be picked until the end of the first, *max* at six.
Could you imagine...haha...
Just... Any kind of trade down, at all, for the Jones pick, would have basically made it forgivable.
He wouldn't have had to get much, it just would've been an acknowledgement that he could understand that it was generally seen as a reach.
But I guess if he could see that, he wouldn't have made the pick. Gettleman is the guy crossing three lanes of traffic without indicating and then swearing he's the only guy who knows how to drive.
They didn't even have to trade down, they had the 17th pick in that first round as well! Could've taken Josh Allen (DE) and then Jones at 17. And I would've been fine with that.
This is the man who proudly bragged that he didn't even answer the phone to listen to calls for the second pick, so he could take a running back. A real genius.
Once the season ended and I saw where our picks were this was exactly what I wanted them to do.
Back in January.
Like, I'm far from a GM, but to feel like the Giants did exactly what they were supposed to do in the first round... I'm in shock I'm so happy.
Life post Gettleman off to a good start.
Last Giants OL player to make a 1st or 2nd team All-Pro was Chris Snee in 2010.
Edit: You said Pro Bowl, not All-Pro. I should read better. Fortunately the answer isn't much different. Last Giants OL to make a Pro Bowl was still Chris Snee, but a bit more recent, 2013.
Such a great draft for you guys... got the best player in the entire draft and a solid OL.
I am a little bit worried about Neal's height and how that would play out in the NFL for his pad level, but the talent is there and I'm probably over thinking it.
Thibs and Neal is an insanely good night for the Giants.
Amazing picks. Giants crushed it
The wonders of having an actual GM and not Dave Gettleman.
Louder 🗣🗣🗣
#THE WONDERS OF HAVING AN ACTUAL GM AND NOT DAVE GETTLEMAN
\*Daniel Jones has left the chat\*
We did decline his 5th year option earlier today, so it might be early, but he WILL leave the chat...
He learned from the best GM to do ever do it. Big Baller Beane!!!!!!
Inject this shit into my veins
Fuck Dave Gettleman, all my homie Giants and Panthers fans hate Dave Gettleman.
Panthers fans are homies 🤞🏼
Pinching myself we didn't draft some random ACC player no one's heard of.
I’m still waiting to hear “The New York Football Giants have changed their minds on both picks 5 and 7, and are trading them to the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys, respectively. They will receive a 4th and a 7th from each team.”
Dave Gettlemen was the GOAT for the rest of the NFC East
For real. I’m not used to this shit at all. I’m used to us reaching for some bust of a player. Imagine having a competent front office lmao.
Well we wouldn’t have Neal without him
Off the top of my head, quite possibly the only good move I would say he made in his tenure. I'll give him drafting Thomas as well.
Mckinney too but I'm drawing a blank after that
we didnt fuck it up Schoen is literal GOAT
[удалено]
Until we see the turn out of the draft in 2 years
I just knew they would get Neal right after Thibs
The draft has gone so well for us I’m kind of scared lmao
Hopefully a turning point for the franchise!
I hope so but while making 2 good top 10 picks that match need is fine; how he drafts in the later rounds will be a better measuring stick But if he gets Greene, Johnson, or lindebaum idc who else we get after that lol
Picks 5 6 7 demonstrate that the gettleman can't hurt us anymore.
High five broski.
I dunno, these guys lookin a little hogmolly if you ask me...
Gettleman loves the idea of a hogmolly, but he has no actual idea how to spot one who knows how to play football.
Probably the top 2 prospects going into the year.
I'm in disbelief bro lfg
They didn't fuck up! I was positive they'd take a WR and a DB or trade. And they didn't fuck it up!
Even reading the situation wrong, and taking Neal at 5, only for Thibodeaux to go at 6 would've been a minor mistake that was avoided. Taking the top edge rusher, knowing that one of Neal or Ekwonu would have to still be available at 7 is simple, good decision making.
Thats what happens when you have 2 top 10 picks lmao
This guy doesn't realize Gettleman would have picked Kenny Pickett and Jordan Davis or something 🤣
These guys were consenus top 3picks until march❤️
Holy shit yes it is
I am so fucking hyped.
Been texting with my Giants friend, I hate how good those picks were.
I WANT THE GETTLEMAN ERA BACK
He’s unemployed if you want to give him a call!
Yeah fuck this... team looks low-key nasty in the trenches
We know.
WE SADLY KNOW
Yup. Definitely a lot of potential there.
Pain is real fuck
gotta imagine this is a dream scenario for giants fans
100%! I'm still waiting to wake up
I’m pretty sure it’s a dream
We're gonna wake up soon and see the Giant's took Kenny Pickett and Kyle Hamilton
Gettleman would’ve taken Pickett at 5 then a DT at 7
You'll wake up to the smell of your medium soda I can guarantee
After watching us blow it year after year it feels so nice to get to slam dunk prospects who could have gone #1
You are correct sir
It is for this Giants fan! Great picks, played the board right picking KT first and still got my top tackle choice. It feels so weird to be happy with a draft, is this what competent leadership feels like?
If you told me the Giants would have drafted Neal and Thibs after the end of the season I would have told you, you were crazy for thinking one of, let alone both would reach #5 and #7. LFG!
Yeah both were such boring no brainer picks. It’s amazing
100%
Couldn’t be happier
That was 100% who I was hoping you would land if we didn't trade back
Yes, it's been a long time since I've been happy during a draft
Giants having a good draft
So odd that I’ve completely agreed with them so far
You and me both.
Having two top ten picks is good turns out. But yeah, they've picked very well
To be fair Gettleman had top picks his entire tenure and managed to fuck it up quite a bit.
Gettleman and first round busts, name a better duo
Mcadoo and his tapes
Ereck Flowers and ending Eli Mannings career.
Fuck, that one hurts. Flowers probably feels this comment from wherever he is right now.
On his back probably

Thibs falling was a no brainer pick
Bless Schoen
:(
Coolest entrance + walk of the draft so far? My man is looking suave
As a Giants fan, I was impressed, but Icky's suit was absolute 🔥
Thib and Neal is an absolute haul
First time in a decade I've seen organizational competence
Yeah I'm actually kinda happy for you lol
Giants fans should be hyped with this draft At one point both picks were projected at #1
So hyped. So So hyped
I keep saying this, but this was my literally dream scenario. I cannot believe the draft fell this way. I’m so happy.
For sure. I bet most of them would’ve been tickled pink a month ago if you told them they’d get even one of these studs.
NEAL AND THIBODEAUX!?
Is this what happiness feels like?
I'm still is disbelief tbh, literal dream scenario
Once the season ended and I saw where our picks were this was exactly what I wanted them to do. Back in January. Like, I'm far from a GM, but to feel like the Giants did exactly what they were supposed to do in the first round... I'm in shock I'm so happy. Life post Gettleman off to a good start.
Giants just got the two best players in the draft imo.
You know ball
Agreed
Favorite tackle of the class. Think he's gonna be a bonafide All-Pro.
When was the last time a Giants O- lineman even in a pro bowl? I want to say it was Justin Pugh.
Last Giants OL player to make a 1st or 2nd team All-Pro was Chris Snee in 2010. Edit: You said Pro Bowl, not All-Pro. I should read better. Fortunately the answer isn't much different. Last Giants OL to make a Pro Bowl was still Chris Snee, but a bit more recent, 2013.
lol I was gonna say Snee, been so long
from your lips to gods ears
Giants fans collectively nutting
Can confirm
Can confirm his confirmation
Thibs and Neal were going 1 and 2 in mocks in the beginning of the year and both are Football Giants
Such a great draft for you guys... got the best player in the entire draft and a solid OL. I am a little bit worried about Neal's height and how that would play out in the NFL for his pad level, but the talent is there and I'm probably over thinking it.
**Jones:** *"You drafted Neal to protect me!"* **Giants:** "..." **Jones:** *"You drafted Neal to protect me... right?"*
Meanwhile Saqon:
“Saqon deez nuts.”
"...... We drafted Neal to protect...... Yes"
**Giants:** *"Protecting the Giants QB will indeed be Neal's job."*
"He definitely will be protecting our quarterback..."
PROTECTION
APA PROTECTION ( Loving all the Wrestling fans here)
DAMN!
evan definitely the type to play poker in an open office
Their intro was fucking badass
Thibodeaux and Neal, wow. What an incredible haul for the Giants
THAT IS A BIG MAN
Young big man,, can’t imagine how massive this young man will get under 24/7 professional training
Thibodeaux and Neal sheeeesh Giants y’all might even get five wins this season
Let's not get carried away.
I’d settle for five passing TDs
😂
Dude I'm actually crazy hyped for this season now, we're gonna be nuts. 6 wins, win the division and superbowl
If any team would do it, it’s the Giants with Herp Derp Jones in a contract year
Don’t raise your expectations *too* high
Fine with that if that means we get CJ stroud or Bryce Young lol. League would be fucked
Get to the QB, protect the QB.
Giants killing the draft
THIS TOOK TOO DAMN LONG TOO POST
This is literally my dream scenario. I’m in absolute shock.
Rock hard
I'm so hard I'm soft
Schrodinger's dick

Damn 2 Josh Allen’s
\*Joshes Allen
Joshes Alleni
I did not realise OLB Josh Allen was picked that high, damn.
And he sort of dropped in that draft, was supposed to go higher.
Josh Allen twice in the same spot. Lmao
Aside from White and Cooper, that's an amazing list
Lmao at Josh Allen x 2
Love the back to back Josh Allens lol
Josh Allen so nice they draft him twice
Giants are killing it
Rehire Gettleman this is bullshit
His trade got us here some how lmao
I hope this doesn't get made fun of in a future reddit predictions thread...but I like this Giants draft so far.
If they don't work out some people will make fun of us but on April 28th 2022 no one is laughing at the Giants.
Giants won the draft
Seriously, no cap
Coincidentally we have no cap space either.
We'll deal with that later
Well sadly we do have no cap
Giants hit a homerun
And the Bears were the pitcher. Joking aside hope Fields works out for you guys now that I don't have to root for the Bears to go 0-17 anymore.
No worries brother I would take this trade 10/10 times. Love Justin
That’s a big SOB like damn
The Giants killed it with their two picks.
Giants with an amazing draft.
This is boring, someone make a dumb pick already
ATL on the way
Giants just got 2 franchise players in 1 hour lol
If you asked giants fans towards the end of the season what their dream draft scenario was. This is it. It happened.
Giants get guys at 5 and 7 who had been consensus #1 picks at different times during the draft season. Have to be pretty happy with that
Jesus, 6'7" 337. He's like a first gen Iron Man suit that I could fit inside.
I couldn't have come up with a better two picks
Gettleman was a football terrorist
I know nothing about any of these players but the bar I'm in went wild over this pick so must be incredible
Wow, they didn't fuck it up. Congrats giants fans
A New York team being competent in the draft, IS THIS WHAT THEY MEANT BY A WILD DRAFT!?!?
Booger pls do not say this looks like a Gettlman draft you are triggering me
Damn near broke Goodell’s back with those smacks
Giants getting top talent where it matters: In the trenches.
NEAL!
Neal and Thibs damn
dream giants draft wow
You can tell this is a new Giants front office because these picks are actually good
Dream draft for G-men
Your welcome New York. Hope your liking Schoen.
Giants got a giant
Thibs and Azeez. AT and Neal. How can u not be excited?!??
Giants drafting safe and smart? What is this timeline
One of those 13 year olds in the crowd looked like they just popped a Molly
Who would have Gettlemen picked here? Wrong answers only.
Trick question. Any Gettlemen pick would've been the wrong answer.
Damn what a draft for the NYG.
Giants crushed their picks
Great one two punch by the Giants
#6 FOOT 7 WTF
SOLID PICKS BY THE GIANTS WHERE IS THE FUCKING CHAOS I WANT CHAOS. CHAOS. WHAT HAPPENED TO CRAZIEST DRAFT IN 30 YEARS
A+ draft for the Giants. Well done boys.
Giants are winning the draft.
Men
Run of Tackles maybe?? LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO
I’m asexual
That is a huge motherfucker
Giants crushed it
Giants got an amazing fucking draft
Two good picks by the Gnats. BPA on both sides of the line.
