I could possibly begin to consider giving Gettleman a bit of a pass for Matt Kalil if he didn't also let Ted Ginn walk in favor of Charles Johnson and Russell Shepard after seeing how signing Tiquan Underwood worked out for us.

I think Gettleman hit on a lot of his early "dumpster diving" moves with us and that built him a lot of credit with the fans. The reality seems to be that he wasn't not a wizard of a talent evaluator as most liked to believe. The latter half of this time here had quite a few blunders(draft and free agency) and he really left some obvious roster holes. That said, the one thing you can't take away from him is that he did a bang up job navigating us through the salary cap hell that Hurney Part I left us with.

Oh but Gettleman is going to make the Giants an instant contender with no QB.

If he pulls that dollar tree poo in NY he won't even last 2 seasons.

I liked Dave but have changed my opinion. I still think he did a lot of good but the thing that did it for me is him letting Ginn go twice and then giving Russell Shepard that contract

I have said it about 400 times today. The Kalil signing alone was a fireable offense.

Whitworth was an easy pickup but many posters tried to tell me how old he was......

That's the thing, his age wasn't even a big deal, IMO. He was still super productive and it allowed us to fill an obvious gap for 2-3 years while we tried to draft or sign a guy to be a future. Such a stupid move not to sign him.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
