How can the team improve through the draft?

The NY Giants must upgrade its cornerbacks again in this draft. This is a talented group of corners in the draft and there will be many good options to choose from in the first round or in later rounds.

Patrick Surtain II headlines this exciting, talented group. Hailing from Alabama, you can be sure Joe Judge will check in with his ex-colleague in Nick Saban about the stud corner on the nation’s #1 college team. Behind Surtain, guys such as Caleb Farley from Virginia Tech, Asante Samuel Jr. of FSU, and Shaun Wade from The Ohio State.

All of these players are very talented with unique and defined skillsets, they can line up in man and zone, and they all love to show up on gamedays and make big plays and shutdown opposing #1 wide receivers.
