Link to story Giants | Daniel Jones a turnover machine Thu Apr 8, 10:24 PM
New York Giants QB Daniel Jones has 39 turnovers, 22 interceptions and 17 lost fumbles, in 27 career games.
| Footballguys view: Jones needs to clean that up ...obviously. He's in a make-or-break season as the team's starter and they'll move on in 2022 if he doesn't prove he can be the franchise guy they envisioned when they took him in the first round of the 2018 NFL draft. |

New York Giants QB Daniel Jones will spend this week working out in Arizona with some of the team's offensive weapons and linemen.
| Footballguys view: Ah yes, it's that time of year when we get the private off-campus (so to speak) workouts. It's a list of which quarterbacks get teammates together and which don't and how often. Listen, most players are doing this now and it is good to see Jones take the lead with his teammates. It's a make-or-break season for the third-year quarterback. |

Link to story Giants | Daniel Jones off target Wed Mar 24, 10:14 PM
New York Giants QB Daniel Jones was off target on 16.8 percent of his throws in 2021, the ninth-worst mark among qualified players.
| Footballguys view: The Giants are setting up Jones for one more year as their starter. It's time for him to prove that he can be the 'main man' going forward or if the team needs to move on. He's an athletic quarterback who isn't afraid to take chances with the ball as a passer, but Jones has to improve his accuracy and pass placement. Adding WR Kenny Golladay gives him a true no.1 target and should help Jones in a make-or-break season. |

| Footballguys view: The Giants get the true no.1 receiver they've been looking for and Golladay gets the long-term deal and guaranteed money he wanted. Third-year pro QB Daniel Jones will now be put on the spot to get it done as he's got plenty of weapons. Golladay, Saquon Barkley, Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton, Evan Engram, and Kyle Rudolph gives the Giants plenty of firepower. Golladay is a WR2 with upside for Fantasy GMs in 2021. |

Giants | NYG agrees to deal with Kyle Rudolph Thu Mar 18, 03:13 PM
Free-agent TE Kyle Rudolph (Vikings) agreed to terms with the New York Giants Thursday, March 18. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: The expected numbers are going to be around two years, 12 million. That could mean more two tight end sets from a team that is also pursuing Kenny Golladay and connected to wide receivers at #11 in the first round, but it could also mean that a staff that doesn't exactly seem sold on Evan Engram may put him on the trade block. |

| Footballguys view: Odenigbo played a ton of snaps for the Vikings defensive line that last Danielle Huneter last year, but wasn't very productive. He'll try to rehabilitate his stock in a Giants defense that lacks any edge rusher of note. |

Alabama WR Jaylen Waddle could be the preferred target for the New York Giants with the No. 11 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft as a replacement for the recently released WR Golden Tate, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Waddle might be the best receiver in this draft class. He's a threat to score from anywhere on the field, and he can be used at all levels to hurt a defense. Waddle might not be on the board when the Giants select at no.11 overall. If they want him, they may have to move up to draft him. |
