1. Landon Collins, Alabama
Landon Collins is 6’0″ and 228 pounds from Alabama. Collins would probably be the best player the Giants can add that can immediately contribute on defense. He’s incredibly quick and aggressive since he can chase the ball carrier with ease and precision.
Collins is light on his feet and knows how to make big defensive stops due to his awareness at all times. He has great eyes that can read quarterback plays and be a difference-maker. He can take down his opponents and has a knack to strip the ball out of his opponents hands.
Collins had good combine scores as he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.53 seconds, 20-yard shuttle in 4.33 seconds and a 7.38 in the 3-cone drill. Collins would bring a much needed spark to the Giants defense and fill the void nicely that was left when Rolle departed.
