In a major change of events, the NY Giants have come away from the 2020 NFL free agency period looking extremely prudent with an eye towards the future. With the team possessing almost $80M in cap space, everyone expected Big Blue to be major spenders.
While the Giants have spent almost all of their $77M in 2020 cap space, very few of that extends into future seasons. Unlike in 2016, where Jerry Reese handed out multiple deals that would last four and five years with high cap numbers in the last seasons, Dave Gettleman hasn’t given out a contract over three years, even though his two main free-agent signings are both under 26-years-old.
