Other Giant observations
B&G: What are Giants selling if it’s not Ward or Sanders? | WFAN.com
“What if they draft Quinn Ewers or Jaxson Dart? They could turn out to be great and really good pros, but if it’s one of those guys that they draft, are you or any Giant fans running to go re up your season tickets?” Boomer asked. “Fans are clamoring for something, and there’s a pretty good nucleus for the Giants too if they all stay healthy, but where’s the electrifying, galvanizing player like the Washington Commanders?”

Malik Nabers credits Darius Slayton for role in historic rookie season | USAToday.com
Nabers credited veteran teammate Darius Slayton with helping him prepare for both the season and individual games and matchups.
“He had individual people he would go at. With me, he would go, ‘They’re already scared with your speed and quickness. Make sure you use that as your advantage.’ Once they know that I feel that is what you mainly attack. Use that first and then change it up a little bit. He’d be watching me and I’d try to mix it up too much and he’d be like, ‘Don’t mix it up too much, stay with the first mindset.’”
Giants legend Victor Cruz calls Malik Nabers “superstar,” urges team to build winner | FanSided.com
“I love the way he catches the football, I love his explosiveness. I think he’s an absolute superstar at the position, and we need to make sure that we cultivate that,” Cruz said. “I think he understands where he’s been drafted, and what comes with, and he understands that there’s a lot on his shoulders. And I think he’s handled that tremendously this year, not only on the field but off it as well. So I just love his game.”
Who’s on Mike Vrabel’s radar for Patriots coordinators? | ESPN.com
Former Titans coaches Tim Kelly (New York Giants TEs coach) is among others who have ties to Vrabel and could be on his radar in some form (Kelly was Titans OC in Vrabel’s final season). Sources around the NFL expect Vrabel to bring Frank Piraino, his former strength coach in Tennessee, to New England to achieve that goal. Piraino, who knows the area well from his time at Boston College, spent last season with the Giants.
Every Team’s Most Likely Cap Casualties Ahead of 2025 NFL Offseason | Bleacher Report
Graham Gano was the highest-paid kicker in the league in 2024, and he’s set to be the fifth-highest-paid in 2025. That seems like a bit much for a team that has much bigger needs across the roster. Gano is now 38 years old and has dealt with injuries over the last two seasons. Given his age and the fact that the Giants can clear $3.2 million of his cap hit by releasing him before June 1, he could be a cap casualty.
