THE GIANTS' GREATEST NEED


Yes, the Giants need a #1 WR, depth on the OL, etc., etc., but their need with the greatest impact is a top notch EDGE rusher. A good Edge does all kinds of good stuff: it makes the DB's more effective if they don't have to chase receivers all over the field. A mobile QB won't be as good with a fast Edge after him instead of a 300 lb DT.

A top notch receiver as the greatest need and impact? Hey look at the Cowboys--they have three top receivers and can't win. For the Giant's an Edge will have a much greater impact than a WR. Hopefully, get one in the draft (lower cost) but bite the bullet and go for a FA if you have to. Look for a veteran "prove it" guy if need be.

The Giants have 3-4 big needs to fill and it would be nice to fill them all with long term draft-type, low cost contracts, but that just isn't going to happen. Some needs will have to be filled with selective 1-2 year plug-ins.
