I’m not sure if the ghost of Brandon Myers is still haunting Jerry Reese and the New York Giants, but the organization has had three straight offseasons to give Eli Manning a somewhat respectable tight end, and they’ve passed all three times.
Last year’s team featured two tight ends who went undrafted the year of their draft class and another who was a sixth-round rookie.
Which tells me the position has been severely neglected for years now.
Between Larry Donnell, Will Tye, and Jerell Adams, the trio caught just three combined touchdown passes last season, with nobody in the group ranking higher than 61st at their position, according to Pro Football Focus.
