New York Giants: Top 5 Safeties Worth Drafting

Sep 27, 2014; Louisville, KY, USA; Louisville Cardinals safety Gerod Holliman (8) intercepts a pass intended for Wake Forest Demon Deacons wide receiver E.J. Scott (17) during the second quarter at Papa John

3. Gerod Holliman

Louisville safety Gerod Holliman, is one of the few players in this position group that offers great ball-hawking ability. Holliman last season totaled a ludicrous 14 interceptions and 17 pass deflections. He is one of the more interesting players in this draft because his ball skills are elite, yet his tackling is horrendous.

Holliman would be an interesting pick for the Giants, as at this moment their roster is void of any ball-hawking threat to roam the secondary. Even with Holliman’s deficiency as a run defender, his game-changing ability to create turnovers could be just what this defense needs.
