Preface: This post was originally just intended to be a quick doom & gloomer regarding the stat in the title. But as I got into it, the rest just came pouring out of me. As it turns out, I had A LOT of thoughts and feelings about the state of the Giants. Nothing revolutionary or dissimilar to stuff that many here have already said, I just needed to get my thoughts out there. This post is lengthy and quite dark at times, and I donβt blame you for not reading it all. If youβre looking for a pick-me-up, this is not the read for you. Thank you in advance if you make it all the way to the end.
As weβre all aware, no New York Giants were named to the 2022 Pro Bowl for the 2nd time in three years. This got me thinking and due to morbid curiosity, I decided to research and ended up confirming my pessimistic suspicion:
Justin Tuck, in 2011/10 (2011 Pro Bowl from his 2010 season), was the last New York Giant, drafted by the Giants, after the 2nd round, to make the Pro Bowl (PB) or All-Pro (AP) team. A decade long draught and counting. I suppose you could count Victor Cruz in 2013/12 if you wanted to go by the spirit of the query and not the letter but Cruz was not drafted, he was signed the day after the draft as an undrafted rookie free agent.
Every single other Giant to make the PB since 2011 was either a 1st round pick, 2nd round pick, or signed as a free agent. It gets worse⦠going back even further, Justin Tuck (2011/10 and 2008/09), David Diehl (2010/09), Zak DeOssie (2011/10 and 2009/08 as Special Teamer), David Tyree (2006/05 as Special Teamer), and Jessie Armstead (2002/01 and 2001/00) were the only homegrown Giants drafted after the 2nd round to make the PB this century.
Yes, the PB is largely a popularity contest to some extent. But keep in mind that players are voted in by the coaches, the players themselves, and the fans. Each groupβs ballots count for one third of the votes. If you prefer to go by All-Pro, youβve got undrafted Victor Cruz in 2011 (for 2011 season), Justin Tuck in 2010 and 2008, David Diehl in 2008, David Tyree in 2005, and two Gmen in 2000, Keith Hamilton and Jessie Armstead.
This is not to suggest that we havenβt drafted any above average players this century outside of the 2nd round. Weβve had a decent amount of solid-good contributors relative to where they were drafted. More recently, the first names that come to mind are Cam Brown on Special Teams, Mr. Irrelev

First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies π
It really does, I swear!
Buenosdillas
Theyβre on standbi
Pilot on me!!
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
I won't be doing that today!
