Fact or Fiction: Offseason Predictions

Giants writers debate Big Blue topics heading into the offseason:

Free agency is equally important as the draft this year for new general manager Dave Gettleman.

John Schmeelk - Fiction: It isn’t close. The Giants have only so much cap space to spend after their very busy offseason in 2016, but even if they were to free up more money, free agency would be nowhere near the importance of having the second pick in the draft. When you select that high, the pick can be franchise altering. Whether it’s finding a franchise player or trading down for extra picks, the right move can impact your team for a decade.
