Giants Veterans with Most to Prove for the Long Term
The New York Giants future starts Monday when head coach Brian Daboll and his staff welcome in the players for the start of their off-season conditioning program.
Although Daboll and the coaches won't be able to talk football jsut yet with the players per the rules of the off-season program, over the next seeral weeks, he and his staff will be getting to know the players currently on the roster both through meetings and, eventually, by watching them on the practice field once on-field workouts begin.
The true battles won't begin until training camp whent he pads go on, so for the time being, all the coaches will have to go on regarding the strengths and weakensses of the players on the field is prior film.
But with that said, Daboll seems intent on giving everyone a fresh start toward earning a place on the roster, and there are a few returning veterans in particular who need to take advantage of the fresh start that awaits them.
In this analysis, I'm looking at the players that arguably have the most to prove in showing they should remain part of the team's plans not just this year, but beyond, regardless of contract status.
QB Daniel Jones
WR Kenny Golladay
