The NY Giants added a bunch of new weapons for Daniel Jones to work with this offseason, and the starting lineup on offense could look different in 2021. 

The NY Giants’ offense averaged just 17.5 points per game in 2020. Only the lowly NY Jets averaged fewer points. When the Giants did manage to win games last season, it was on the back of their stingy defense.

The additions of James Bradberry, Blake Martinez, and Patrick Graham took the defense to another level in the first year of the Joe Judge era. Can Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney, Rob Sale (new offensive line coach) have a similar impact with the offense?

It might be asking too much to expect the offense to go from the 31st best unit to the 9th best (which is what the defense ranked in 2020 based on a points per game basis.) That being said, the offense should be much improved with the additions made at receiver, the signing of Kyle Rudolph at TE, and the return of Saquon Barkley.

Here’s a look at what the NY Giants’ ideal starting offense would look like, Week 1 against the Denver Broncos:
