Where does PFF rank Giants’ Mark Glowinski among NFL guards?

The New York Giants are building an offensive line that hopefully will lead them to a championship.

They already have an All-Pro left tackle in Andrew Thomas and they hope right tackle Evan Neal, a 2022 first-round pick, can step up his game to give the Giants a formidable pair of bookends.

This spring, they added a top center through the draft in John Michael Schmitz. The only pieces still in flux are the guard spots.

Last year, free agent Mark Glowinski played 92 percent of the offensive snaps on the line at right guard. Only Thomas played more snaps on offense than Glowinski did.

Glowinski played admirably for his first season with the Giants in a new offense. Pro Football Focus ranks him the 28th best guard (out of 64) in the NFL heading into the 2023 season.

Glowinski’s 65.6 PFF grade in 2022 ranked 29th among guards. While he’s unlikely to ever be considered elite, he has proven reliable and serviceable, producing PFF grades above 65.0 in each of the past three seasons.

‘Reliable and serviceable’ is fine but may not be good enough for the Giants and their lofty goals going forward. This summer, Glowinski will be challenged by a slew of hopefuls the team has been developing.

Although it’s likely that Glowinski is back at right guard to start the season and beyond, the team will be taking a long look at a pair of 2022 draft picks (Joshua Ezeudu, Marcus McKethan) and others such as Shane Lemieux and Wyatt Davis.
