The New York Giants have little to cling to as they enter a new season of NFL Football. The team has been pretty bad for the past several seasons. The team has lost more games than it has won in the past three seasons, its pretty hard to deny that the Giants have been disappointing. With disappointing seasons comes the hope that the next season could be different, that the team could turnaround. Will the Giants have a turnaround season?
The Giants have had a busy offseason. They signed a handful of free agents. While they didn’t make a big splash in the free agent market, the Giants added key role players to their roster. The draft was incredibly important for the Giants, who had many holes on the roster to fill. The Giants need to get a lot from their first two draft picks, Ereck Flowers and Landon Collins who are both pegged to be starters. Flowers will takeover the left tackle position if everything goes as planned. After the injury to Will Beatty the Giants had to put Flowers in this tough position. Collins will be the strong safety and he is expected to bring toughness to a defense that was pretty soft last season.
The Giants have a lot of talent but they have so many question marks on their roster. All eyes are on Eli Manning, as Giants fans hope he can utilize his great weapons and lead this team back to the playoffs. The Giants have to get everything they can from Manning because there is plenty to doubt in this team. The defense ranked 29th last season and while it is better on paper, it doesn’t look like it will be all that dominant. The offensive line is still something Giants fans should have major reservations about. Promise and doubt, those are two things the Giants have a surplus of this offseason. With that in mind here are 3 big things to think about for the Giants 2015 season.
