Updated NY Giants, roster, depth chart ahead of 2023 NFL Draft

4 of 4

Linebackers, Defensive gacks, and special teams:

Linebackers:
Bobby Okereke, Jarrad Davis, Micah McFadden, Darrian Beavers, Carter Coughlin, Cam Brown

One of the best additions this offseason was the signing of Okereke on a four-year $40 million contract. This fills an incredibly massive hole on the Giants' defense, as New York has not had many talented players at linebacker for years now.

It will be a total dogfight for who claims the LB2 spot aside from Okereke. While Davis and McFadden seem like the obvious choices as of now, a player like Beavers could very easily step in and steal the spot from them. Keep an eye on the NFL Draft as awell.

Defensive backs:
CB: Adoree' Jackson, Cor'Dale Flott, Darnay Holmes, Aaron Robinson, Amani Oruwariye, Nick McCloud, Leonard Johnson, Rodarious Williams
FS: Xavier McKinney, Trenton Thompson, Dane Belton
SS: Bobby McCain, Dane Belton, Jason Pinnock, Terrell Burgess

The secondary of the NY Giants underwent some changes this offseason with the loss of Julian Love. While we're excited to see how McCain and Belton fill his shoes, it just won't be the same without him. Hopefully, these two can manage to pick up his massive workload.

As for the corners, this core is rather deep with solid talent. However, they are still missing a genuine outside guy to play opposite of Jackson in the starting lineup. While Flott very well could be that guy to step up, the Giants will more likely than not draft a corner to man this position.

Special Teams:
PK: Graham Gano
P: Jamie Gillan
LS: Casey Creiter

Not many notable changes to the NY Giants special teams here, as they retained both of their kickers, and long snapper this offseason. Gano was one of the best kickers in the game last season, making countless clutch kicks for Daboll when his number was called.
