Giants general manager Dave Gettleman has always maintained that the period of free agency should be used to set up the team for the draft. This year, that’s exactly what has happened.

The Giants will have the fourth overall selection when the draft takes place in less than a month. But it isn’t necessarily their moves in the past two weeks that have improved their positioning.

Sure, the Giants signed some good players. They seem to have upgraded at a few positions, added depth at a few others.
