Locked On Giants - Daily Podcast On The New York Giants

The Giants continue adding depth in free agency, signing linebacker Cam Jones and long snapper Zach Triner — but how should we grade their offseason so far? Where have the Giants improved the most, and what does it reveal about their roster-building strategy?

John Harbaugh’s presence at Ohio State’s Pro Day raises questions about potential draft targets like Sonny Styles, Caleb Downs, and Carnell Tate. Meanwhile, Todd McShay’s latest intel suggests the Giants could seriously consider Jeremiyah Love at No. 5 overall — is offense the move, or should they go defense in Round 1?

We also break down what the Giants’ free agency decisions tell us about their draft direction, Kayvon Thibodeaux’s status, Dexter Lawrence’s potential bounce-back season, and key trends like their offensive snaps with a lead.

Jay Berman, Patricia Traina, and Mark Collins break it all down on the latest edition of the Giants Squad Show.

The cap-strapped New York Giants managed to sign over a dozen free agents since the start of the new league year despite starting out with limited funds. How did they do it and what was the key hack that new cap strategist Dawn Aponte used to optimize the team's available resources while not jeopardizing future years? We dive into that in this edition of Locked On Giants.

The Giants add defensive tackle Sam Roberts in free agency — but is it enough help in the trenches? Do the Giants still need to invest more in the defensive line, and could a bigger move still be coming?

With the NFL Draft approaching, could the Giants target Jeremiyah Love at No. 5 overall? Should they prioritize offense or defense in Round 1, and how important are pre-draft meetings in shaping their final board?

We also discuss Odell Beckham Jr.’s attempt to return to the NFL, whether Dexter Lawrence deserves a contract extension, and a new NFL rule proposal that could allow teams to trade picks up to five years out.

Plus, Cam Skattebo’s recent media slip and why media training matters for young prospects entering the league.

Jay Berman, Patricia Traina, and Mark Collins break it all down on the latest edition of the Giants Squad Show.
