5) How does the secondary shake out?

Speaking of an improved secondary, this will be the strongest personnel grouping that Graham has worked with and has the potential to be one of the premier defensive backfields in the NFL.

Signing Adoree’ Jackson, pairing him opposite Pro Bowler James Bradberry dramatically improves the NY Giants’ perimeter defense. Likewise, Xavier McKinney, Julian Love, Darnay Holmes, and rookie Aaron Williamson could all be in the mix for the nickel cornerback job.

Graham typically deploys three-safety sets, so there is plenty of playing time to go around for the NY Giants’ young defensive backs, that doesn’t make the competition for top of depth chart jobs any less stiff.
