Did the Giants not listen to Gettlemen, regarding the Draft?

In last week's news conference, New York Giants GM Jerry Reese cut off a reporter who asserted that his mid-to-late-round draft picks weren't panning out as successfully as were those of other teams. Reese demanded to see some numbers. He should be careful what he wishes for.

Our man Mike Sando offered this number today in his Insider column on whether Washington should be favored to repeat as NFC East champions in 2016:

"The players the Giants drafted since Jerry Reese became GM in 2007 combined to play a league-low 10,767 offensive and defensive snaps in the NFL this season. Other teams' picks over the same span averaged 16,448 snaps per team, or about 53 percent more snaps than the Giants' selections."

i decided to hop on over to pro football reference and compare our roster with that of the Giants...

We have 24 players drafter by Carolina on our roster.  The Giants have 27 players drafter by the Giants on their roster.

Our draftees totaled 290 games this season, with 184 starts.  12.1 games/draftee, 7.7 starts.  The average AV of our drafted players was 6.9.

For the Giants, their draftees totaled 235 games this season, with 147 starts.  8.7 games/draftee, 5.4 starts.  The average AV of their draftees is 3.5.

 

If you look at only players currently on the 2015 roster who were drafted by each team since 2013, here are the 2015 stats in terms of games & starts:

Giants:  17 players, 155 games (9.1/draftee), 98 starts (5.8 per draftee), Avg AV 4.0

Panthers: 13 players, 165 games (12.7 per draftee), 83 starts (6.4 per draftee), Avg AV 4.6

McClain shouldn't count...

Yeah, I just noticed he's on the list.  And of course, players on the IR are on both lists.  But in any case, McClain WAS a Panthers draftee who is currently on our roster.  I just copied and pasted the rosters as is, deleting non-Panthers draftees.  It would be interesting to look at and compare Panthers UFDAs and Giants UFDAs too, but I don't have time for that today

College prospects would be a different set of guys scouting/evaluating

    • That he gets worse while at the same time getting more exposure is just typical.
    • And, yes, I've been a slow boil, but watching continually watching shitty displays of football for weeks has me frustrated.  
    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
