New York Giants offseason grades (thus far)

Well i thought it was only right to give my opinion on how the big blue have done so far this offseason where to start.....

Well the Giants have revamped there secoundary and made some big moves so far by adding cornerbacks Sam Madison and R.W Mcquarters most noteably, and by adding former Baltimore Ravens safety Will Demps. These moves should give the Giants a pretty strong secoundary or at least compared to last year when they were basically dominated every game and got trampled by Steve Smith in the playoffs.

The Giants were not to keen to update another position that seemed to be a weakpoint at the end of the season which was the Linebacker. the Gaints revently have added one of the premere linebackers in the offseason in LaVar Arrington which might i add should pose some interesting feelings when they play his former team and division rival the Washington Redskins. The Giants also readed should i say linebacker Brandon Short which should add some depth at what seemed to be a depleted posisiton come playoff time last season.

The Giants majorly added some depth at the defensive end posistion during the draft ( as if they already didnt have enough ) by adding Boston College standout Mathias Kiwanuka to there gunpower. Now most likely they will alternate him in with current starters osi umenyiora and Micheal Strahan and with him getting up in age he appears to also be Strahan's air apparent.

The Giants added a much need third reciver to there offense by grabbing a small, speedy, compact reciver in Sinorice Moss who is current Redskin standout Santana Moss brother. Now last season the Giants did have quite the reciving tandom in current starters Plaxico Burress and Amani Toomer but they never really had a third reliable reciver and moss should be just that and add some speed. I think everyone can agree on one thing though, if Sinorice is anything like his brother he will be one great football player.

Other small moves were made in free agency and the draft but I felt as if it was more important to cover the main things. If i were to grade the Giants as of now i would give them a B+, i felt as if they could have added some more depth in the secoundary but what can you do?
