Hello, welcome back to Talking Giants presented by Seeky.

Today is December 30th, 2025.

I think it's going to be the last time that I'm going to say,

2025, can't wait for me to screw it up when I say the day and the year now.

What we are doing today is we are reviewing every single move that Joe Shane has made

as the general manager of the New York football Giants.

We are about to wrap up year four and probably head into year five of Joe Shane unless we can have a Liam Cohen-Trent-Balky situation,

which is the Hail Mary that I think we're all hoping for.

Or maybe they just come to their natural census and they fire joe Shane we'll

talk about that on friday with sean but i kind of today no interview so i'm like what can i do that's

somewhat simple that won't make me want to rip my hair out from a preparation standpoint uh because this is

definitely a topic that's uh it's not going to be fun if you're going to be hanging out and watching because it's going to make you mad, but I think it's informative and it's a nice, nice isn't the word. It's a reflection. It's a reflection piece on overlooking everything that Joe Shane is done. So again, I'm mentioning this guy in back-to-back pods. Ryan Henderson, and I want to get the right name, Ryan's Big Blue podcast, he's hanging out in the chat right now. He, I came on his show last week, and we kind of went through every single pick of the Joe Shane era. Like, we just went through the draft classes. And we gave it like a pass fail, you know, a grade and stuff like that, which I'm not really going to give it a grade.

I'm not really much of a grade person.

And also, why am I going to give a grade when we all have come to the consensus that the dude should be fired to begin with?

But this is kind of like his exercise that I did with him.

And I'm like, well, let's just, let's just blow it up and let's just go through every single move,

including draft classes, free agency, the limited extensions that he's done, like Thomas

extension, the Dex extension, the Jones extension, and things like that. So we're going to,

we're going to go through it. I did not compile UDFA's. That is the one thing I forgot.

Shout out Deontay Johnson. Bryce Ford Wheaton, too, good UDFA. Probably his best one.

All right. So let's start off with the 2022 draft class. And if you're hanging out, I'm

live streaming this on a Tuesday night. Thanks for hanging out. Appreciate you being with me.
