Safeties (4)

Jabrill Peppers, Logan Ryan, Xavier McKinney, Julian Love

Peppers had one of his strongest seasons in 2020, and seemed to be aided by the flexibility to freelance near the line of scrimmage that was provided by Ryan’s presence in coverage on the back-end.

Meanwhile, the NY Giants have high hopes for McKinney, who flashed late in the season after being chosen in the second-round of last April’s NFL Draft, and the Alabama alum should figure into a key role when Graham deploys three safeties.

Love’s versatility to play safety or slot cornerback will help him get on the field, particularly in nickel and dime packages.
