5 underrated NY Giants to keep an eye on at training camp

2. LB Darrian Beavers

With it being announced that linebacker Jarrad Davis will be out for the season, Darrian Beavers has the best chance he's ever had to steal a starting linebacker spot. Thankfully, he'll be playing alongside Bobby Okereke, which will help his development out a ton.

The skill set Beavers brings to the field makes him a near-perfect fit next to Okereke. We all know Okereke is an elite run-stopping linebacker. However, Beavers brings some great abilities as a coverage backer. This would fit incredibly well and bring some much-needed versatility to the Giants defense.

Beavers had a chance to receive a good amount of snaps last season. However, a torn ACL during the preseason ruined what could have been a fun rookie season. Prior to his injury, Beavers was showing off some skills at linebacker that the Giants had not seen in a long time. Hopefully, Beavers can keep this up heading into next season because the Giants could really use a coverage 'backer on their defense.
