This is one thing we're not sure about, and there are conflicting opinions on it on various fan websites.
However, we have less than 24 hours to go, so wait it out and we will know very soon. :)

This made sense to me as well since the stat descriptions are more straight forward this time. I'm guessing this is the general consensus now. STR for DRG!

Does anyone recommend a specific Grand Company for Dragoons. I'm kinda leaning towards the Gridania GC, but I'm not entirely sure if there's a right or wrong GC for Dragoons.

Based on the current GC gear, there really is no difference for your DRG, or any class, right now..
They will have higher level gear sometime, which may benefit a DRG or not, but I doubt they would implement GC gear that outclasses dungeon/job specific gear. Especially when Yoshi has stated that GC affiliation should be chosen based on whether you agree with their ideologies more or less than the others.

Choose your GC based on which you like, not on a class. :) The gear won't matter so much.

With the new materia system, you want Darksteel and Primal Weapons (or Obelisk if you have two [one for relic]). The Grid Officer Cap/Overcoat/Boots will make you marginally better than AF in the meantime. Also, if you got a Giantsgall Lance in 1.0, it has the potential (with Materia) to be quite nice. Nicer than GC at least, just depends on the Materia caps on it.

To bad the GC lances are now useless trash at 50, that Limsan Trident was too bad ass!

Don't remind me..... I tossed iffy's and mogfork in favor of inventory space while the GC weapons were better :/
Infinite regret :/ Almost makes me want to play another class. Especially when the two darklight pieces I had
are monk only now xD

I hope someone can answer this question :)

Do DRGs bring anything to the table (utility) that would make them desirable assuming they aren't the #1 or even #2 dps? (let's just assume they're not). I know we have stuns, and a slow, but don't other classes? Is there any reason a party would want a DRG?
