No. 2: DE Leonard Williams

Terms: 3 years, $63,000,000

Expires: 2024

Williams had a career-high season in 2020 and deserves every penny he gets. He had 29 solo tackles and 11.5 sacks which was 7th most in the league. The challenge for Williams this season is to replicate his dominance up front.

Because the NY Giants lack a consistently dominant edge rush presence, Williams consistently wreaking havoc in the backfield is critical to the success of Patrick Graham’s front-seven, and defense at large.

A key piece to this NY Giants’ defense, at least so far, Williams has lived up to what he makes.
