Giants news, 7/19: Logan Ryan, power rankings, more

Good morning, New York Giants fans!

NFL Power Rankings: Talented teams battle for ground in the middle tiers - Pro Football Network

The Giants are ranked at a respectable No. 21 but were still placed in the “flawed or rebuilding rosters” tier.

It all comes down to the quarterback. The Giants are low on the totem pole of the NFL power rankings for that reason. The turnovers are a massive issue, and the offensive line still appears to be a struggle for the Giants in 2021. The G-men certainly aren’t short on offensive skill position talent. The addition of Kenny Golladay gives them a WR1, and they have talent and depth with the rest of the group. It made the Kadarius Toney selection a curious one. The defense looks good on paper, and in Year 2, Patrick Graham should get the intended results. It all comes down to Daniel Jones and Jason Garrett.
