The New York Giants are ravished at the cornerback position with little depth and experience, which is why Bleacher Report names it the most significant remaining offseason need for Big Blue.
The New York Giants entered the Joe Schoen/Brian Daboll era with holes galore on both sides of the ball. And Schoen did what he could to fill those holes in free agency and the draft.
The addition of veteran center Mark Glowinski and rookie tackle Evan Neal should help strengthen an offensive line that has been mostly awful in recent years. Rookie Kayvon Thibodeaux can be the kind of force off the edge that the G-Men haven’t had since Jason Pierre-Paul left town in 2018.
But there’s still work to be done.
The release of veteran cornerback James Bradberry may have been a financial necessity for a cap-strapped Giants team weighed down in the past by bad contracts. But it also left the team in a precarious situation at the position. Adoree’ Jackson has been inconsistent, and Aaron Robinson and Darnay Holmes don’t strike fear into the hearts of opposing quarterbacks.
The Giants took a cornerback in Round 3 in LSU’s Cordale Flott, but unless Thibodeaux, Leonard Williams and the pass rush get home with regularity, this secondary could be exposed on Sunday afternoons.
After starter Adoree’ Jackson, the Giants do not have another cornerback that has 10 starts or three career interceptions.
