The Giants' offensive 'building blocks' look more like LEGOs

The Giants need more.

To say the New York Giants' offense has been unproductive over the last few seasons would be an understatement—it has been brutal. The 2024 season wasn't much different for Big Blue offensively, as they had 12 games where they scored less than 20 points and just five games where they scored 20 points or more. So, something certainly has to give in 2025.

Their woeful offensive issues should first be addressed at the quarterback position, as New York is slated to have the third overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft. But could a young quarterback be enough for the G-Men to get their offense back on track?

This brutal offensive ranking for the Giants proves their offense is in shambles

In an article by Moe Moton from Bleacher Report, they ranked every NFL team's offensive building blocks ahead of the offseason. And it's safe to say Moton wasn't too kind when it came time to rank the Giants' offense heading into the offseason.

When it came time to rank the league's 29th-best offense heading into the spring, Moton had our beloved Giants at that spot—which honestly is almost a compliment, considering just how unwatchable their offense was at many points during the regular season.

"The New York Giants must find someone who can get the ball to Malik Nabers in the passing game. They don't have a quarterback under contract for the 2025 term, so they could sign a veteran signal-caller and draft a passer with the No. 3 overall pick," Moton wrote.

"Nabers is the future of the Giants offense. He finished second among rookies in catches (109) and receiving yards (1,204) this past season despite the team's horrific quarterback situation with Daniel Jones, Tommy DeVito and Drew Lock. Running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. emerged as a pleasant surprise, racking up 1,123 scrimmage yards, but he had nearly as many fumbles (five) as touchdowns (six). He must take care of the ball to retain the lead role out of the backfield."

Moton is certainly right that wide receiver Malik Nabers is the future of the Giants' offense after his incredible rookie season, which he compiled under, at some points, horrible circumstances. After setting the franchise record with 109 receptions despite having Jones, DeVito, and Lock throwing him the ball, you have to wonder what he's capable of doing with a young and talented quarterback.

As for running back Tyrone Tracy Jr., despite his breakout and surprising rookie season, Moton did highlight the fact that he had six fumbles this past season, losing five of them—including one that resulted in a crushing overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers in Munich, Germany. So, it's safe to say this Giants' offense has a lot of problems.

After finishing near the bottom of the league in practically every offensive category in 2024—and many seasons prior—this brutal ranking needs to be a wake-up call for Brian Daboll, who is leading the charge for New York's offense.

Remember when we all thought Daboll would be the man to fix the offense after two lackluster seasons under offensive coordinator Mike Kafka? Well, the offense has only gotten worse. This unit must improve vastly if the Giants want any hope of developing whichever young slinger they draft this spring.
