Jimmy Pruitt, CB/FS (San Jose State)

Pruitt’s flying under the radar right now. He’s ranked 88th best at his position by CBS Sports and 89th by NFLDraftScout. He’s not projected to get drafted and the Giants don’t have a 7th round pick because of the Brad Wing trade last year. But, he’s got to be signed and given a chance in training camp. Historically the Giants have been hurting in the secondary, so a guy that can play both corner and free safety will provide depth and versatility that could be a dangerous weapon when disguising coverage looks and blitz packages.
