6) Tight end

Starters: Evan Engram, Kyle Rudolph

Kaden Smith, Levine Toilolo

Evan Engram made his first Pro Bowl in 2020, and the NY Giants were so impressed … They signed Kyle Rudolph almost immediately after free agency began.

Engram stayed on the field for 16 games last season, but coordinator Jason Garrett struggled to get the ball in his hands, largely because of the eight drops Engram was charged with.

Rudolph is as reliable as they come at the position, especially in the red zone, and creates opportunities for some intriguing two-tight end sets.

There’s a good chance the NY Giants keep four tight ends, because the organization likes Smith’s long-term potential and views Toilolo as a dominant run-blocker.
