No live contact is authorized during Giant“10 OTA voluntary practices, which started on Tuesday at East Rutherford, NJ, leading to a compulsory mini-camp of two days in mid-June.
But Joe Schoen and Brian DabollThe team must demonstrate the emergency itself here in phase three of the offseason, two months before the start of the training camp.

Because there will be no excuse for the giants to be caught by their road trip of the week 1 to Washington Commanders, because they were in their last two games of the season by the Dallas Cowboys (40-0) and the Vikings of Minnesota (28-6) at the house, respectively.
And if they don’t start quickly this fall, all the worst scenarios immediately come into play for the team, the coach and the managing director.
What does the emergency look like during springless spring practices with 7, 9-sur 7 and 11 out of 11 exercises?
It seems that playing players play in shape and kept them healthy.
It seems to practice hard and for a line, but not through.

It looks like playing players in competitive situations to create position battles.
It seems that players get more rehearsals and win these position battles on merit, not status or salary.
It seems that the development of recruits at an appropriate rate to maximize their development as well as their ability to have an impact on games during the first year, if they prove to be capable.
It seems that to discover specifically what Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston and Jaxson Dart can all do in 11 against 11, even in practice.
There is no room this season for the giants who make their way in an identity or play a form in the first four weeks.

They must understand who they are and who they are not now, here in May and June.
If there is still a blatant hole on their depth board which becomes more obvious during the OTA, do not wait for the start of the training camp to sign a starter as they did last year with goalkeeper Greg Van Roten.
Solidify the team so that they can build a foundation now, rather than waiting until August to start thinking as if it was a real football match.
Practice situational football instead of taking a seat of their pants, decisions at stake and precipitated games that have not been taken up in the appropriate context during the previous training week.

Identify the roles and responsibilities of the coaches, delegate appropriately and be confident in the staff. Do not walk on the toes and the finger like the past years.
All this to say that the Giants play in the same division as the title champion of the Super Bowl Eagles and Saquon Barkley, who would like nothing more than sweeping them and embarrassing them again this year.
They play in the same division as the commanders, whose ascending quarter transformed them into an instant competitor.
And then there are the Cowboys, who now have two receivers for Ceedee Lamb and George Pickens who promise to give secondary headaches from the giants if he is not entirely prepared in week 2.

These two games in the road division are intimidating directly from the door in September. But they are also opportunities – if the giants are ready for them.
To be ready, however, Schoen and Daboll need this team to practice and prepare with their hair on fire now, and they must make calculated decisions as leaders to drive intersane competition in an optimal and constructive place.
Because if they are not ready for week 1, the last two years have shown that they will not recover. Instead, it will be representative of who they are.
