Defensive coordinator Patrick Graham
KEEP
Graham is going to garner significant head coaching interest this offseason, and this week, the New York Giants’ defensive coordinator sounded like someone with designs on running his own program.
However, Graham might be the most vital piece of New York’s coaching staff.
He is the number one asset this team possesses. Losing him is the only way things get worse for Giant fans. https://t.co/aVjGLNpJpr

Graham’s NY Giants entered Week 18 No 20 in total defense, and is holding teams under 25 points per game, despite losing captain and inside linebacker Blake Martinez, and safety Jabrill Peppers to season-ending injuries and a revolving door of players — particularly in the secondary this season.
If new York can find a way to keep Graham beyond this offseason, it would be a step towards building some momentum on the defensive side of the football.
