PFF ranks the Giants’ offensive line last in the NFL

Will the Giants offensive line surprise critics this year?

front office — be it under Jerry Reese, Dave Gettleman, or Joe Schoen — and coaching staff did, they could never quite put that task behind them.

Case in point, Pro Football Focus currently ranks the Giants’ offensive line as the weakest in the NFL. Despite Joe Schoen signing five (5) offensive linemen in free agency.

Even after earning the worst offensive line grade of any team in 2023, the Giants did very little to improve their unit this offseason. The group recorded a 44.6 PFF grade last year and will hope a fully healthy Andrew Thomas and the additions of guard Jon Runyan (56.5 PFF grade in 2023) and tackle Jermaine Eluemunor (68.7) can provide a boost.

Bullen’s outside linebacker group with the Cardinals ranked fifth in the NFL with 89 total sacks from 2020-2021. Of those, 50 came via the outside linebacker position. During that span, three Cardinals outside linebackers posted 10+ sacks: Markus Golden, Chandler Jones, and Haason Reddick.

Before that stint, Bullen, who began his coaching career as a student assistant (quarterbacks) with the University of Iowa in 2007, was with the Miami Dolphins, working in various defensive-related positions as an assistant.

Kuhr (pronounced “COOR”) joins the Giants from the Tennessee Titans staff, where he worked with new Giants defensive coordinator Shane Bowen, as the inside linebackers assistant coach from 2021-2023. The year prior, Kuhr was a quality control coach for the Titans.

Before his work with the Titans, his first NFL coaching gig, Kuhr spent the 2009-2019 seasons in the college ranks, where he had one season (2016) with Rutgers as the team’s running backs coach. His other college stops include the University of Texas, Texas State, James Madison, Old Dominion, Ohio State (intern), and Edward Waters Universit
