GM Dave Gettleman said a number of times the team didn’t have enough defensive play makers last season, and would have won more games during a 5-11 season if it could have made some late-game stops.After trading away Olivier Vernon, and losing Landon Collins, Kerry Wynn, Josh Mauro, Mario Edwards and Connor Barwin, you knew the Giants would emphasize defense in the draft.Thus, Gettleman used the 17th overall pick on monstrous defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence and engineered a trade up to select cornerback Deandre Baker with the 30th pick. Both should be instant starters.Here is what Gettleman and coach Pat Shurmur said about the two defensive players.Dexter LawrenceGettleman: “We got me a hog mollie! Dexter Lawrence, he might have been the biggest player in the draft, I don’t know. He’s a quality run player and he’s more than just a two-down run player. This kid can push the pocket and he can have an impact on the pass rush. That’s why we took him at 17 and we are thrilled ... He’s versatile Robert Thomas Color Rush Jersey , he’s got hips, he can flip to rush the passer and we are thrilled to have him.”Shurmur: “Dexter, I was with (Vikings DT) Linval Joseph, who all of you know, in Minnesota and he sort of reminded me of him. He’s sneaky with the pass rush, but he’s really good on first, second down and the run game stuff. Tremendous human being and he’s a big guy and I think you win with big people.”Gettleman on Lawrence’s lack of pass rush productivity in college ...“Here’s what I want you to understand. This is where numbers don’t tell all the story. Defensive tackles can affect the pass rush if they get consistent inside push. How many times have you guys watched a game, and the ends come screaming off the corner, and the quarterback steps up, and there’s nobody there. You get inside pass rush, those ends come screaming off the corner, they’re going to affect it, and if the guy is getting push, the quarterback is going to step up and Dexter will give him a kiss.”On not getting an edge rusher with any of the first three picks ...“Rome wasn’t built in a day. Oh and by the way, (LB) Lorenzo Carter had 5.5 sacks last year.”Deandre BakerGettleman: “The last guy we traded up for we feel is the best cover corner in the draft Cody Latimer Color Rush Jersey , the kid from Georgia, Deandre Baker. We feel like we got three guys that are going to impact this franchise for a long time.”Shurmur: “Dave did it, he got Deandre Baker. He’s a cover corner. The thing that impressed me most on tape was how stinking competitive he is. He’s very confident and he’s very competitive and I think when he’s faced with a challenge of a good wide out, he’s going to accept the challenge.” Then what was the game plan?!?One of the many disappointing storylines coming out of the Giants’ devastating 25-22 loss to the Eagles that effectively ended their playoff hopes came from — who else? — Odell Beckham Jr.And he had a point.Why didn’t the Giants put more pressure on the Eagles’ hobbled secondary?”That’s more of a question for coach,” Beckham said. “Coming in, knowing that they struggled in the secondary, personally I would have loved to attack them. But it wasn’t in our game plan.”Innnnnnnnnteresting.The Eagles’ Rodney McLeod and Ronald Darby are out for the season. Meanwhile, CBs Sidney Jones and Jalen Mills were inactive Sunday due to injury, as was S Avonte Maddox.The Eagles’ cornerbacks were Rasul Douglas, Chandon Sullivan, De’Vante Bausby and Cre’von LeBlanc. Only Douglas was on the active roster during Week 1.Beckham did catch five passes for 85 yards and was targeted nine times. But aside of a fourth-quarter pass from Eli Manning where he appeared to be interfered with by LeBlanc, Beckham wasn’t a huge factor.Manning completed 26-of-37 passes for 297 yards for a touchdown and an interception. But most of it came in the first half, as did most of the damage Saquon Barkley inflicted.Barkley rushed for 94 yards and caught six passes for 37 yards in the first half. But then he vanished in the Giants’ game plan in the second half. He finished with 101 rushing yards (on 13 carries) and 41 receiving yards on seven receptions. Barkley did have a 13-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter and a 51-yard touchdown run in the second.Maybe the Eagles just adjusted better during the game than the Giants coaches did. Beckham seemed to think so. ”They came out and made their adjustments and they just made better adjustments than we did,” Beckham said. “They ran better plays. They made the plays.”
