Tight end

Key losses: Evan Engram, Kyle Rudolph, Kaden Smith

Additions: Ricky Seals-Jones

In the hours before Ricky Seals-Jones signed, the New York Giants did not have an NFL-caliber tight end on the roster.

Seals-Jones, at least, has game experience, though he is far from a game-breaker.

This was exactly the kind of signing that Schoen and the Giants needed to make this offseason, as clearing cap space and looking ahead to long-term salary cap health significantly trumped any efforts to build a roster capable of pushing for a Super Bowl this season.

Seals-Jones will at least provide some sort of veteran competence, having caught 30 passes for 271 yards and a pair of touchdowns last season.

However, depending on what the Giants do in the NFL Draft, this might be the worst tight end room in the NFL. By a wide margin.

Verdict: Worse
