New York Giants

Offense

The Giants’ playbook was completely overhauled last year and is still going through changes, but it’s perfect for players who like to utilize quick throws and the tight end position.

Key Formation

Gun Trips Y Iso is just one of many new formations in the Giants’ playbook. If you pick up multiple WRs, you can use this formation to draw attention to one receiver while another gets open for a big play.

Key Player

WR with 90+ Route Running

Formations

  • SINGLEBACK: Ace, Deuce Close, Ace Pair, Ace Pair Twins, Bunch Ace, Giant Doubles, Y-Trips, Wing Trio
  • I-FORM: Pro, Pro Twins, Tight
  • STRONG: Pro, Pro Twins
  • GUN: Doubles Flex Wk, Doubles Flex Wing, Doubles Wing Wk, Stack Offset Wk, Y-Trips Wk, Wing Offset Wk, Trio Offset, Spread, Y-Trips Open, Trips Y Iso, Giant Trips, Empty Giant, Flex Trey

This playbook really works well if you can master the new RAC move.

OFFENSIVE Draft Targets

  • WR (RTE, SPD, CIT)
  • TE (CIT, RBK, RTE)
  • QB (PAC, SAC, MAC)

Defense

The Giants’ defensive playbook is a solid 4-3 that relies on the ability of multiple pass rushers as the “bread and butter.”

Key Formation

Nickel NASCAR allows you to get DTs out of the game and DEs into unique spots along the line. Look for speed/size mismatches at the guard spot, and get your best pass rusher in there.

Key Player

DE with 90+ FMV

Formations

  • 4-3: Normal, Under, Over, Over Plus, Wide 9
  • 5-2: Normal
  • NICKEL: Normal, Double A Gap, NASCAR
  • DIME: Normal
  • DOLLAR: 3-2-6
  • QUARTER: Normal, 3 Deep

Optimize your lineup before heading into a game to take advantage of the Giants’ unique formations.

DEFENSIVE Draft Targets

  • DE (FMV, SPD, ACC)
  • DE (PMV, SPD, ZCV)
  • DE (PMV, SPD, ZCV)
