2.) Safeties
The Giants have a promising young group of safeties in Julian Love, Xavier McKinney, and Jabrill Peppers. Before Peppers suffered a season-ending injury on a punt return, he was on pace for his best season yet. He earned 76 combined tackles, five tackles for loss, three forced fumbles, and one INT, proving he can be a staple at strong safety.
Ultimately, the defensive scheme will change under Patrick Graham, which utilizes safeties more uniquely. I expect them to be heavily involved in the pass rush scheme. However, all three will be involved on defense, with Love playing a more secondary role, allowing McKinney and Peppers to maneuver around and create unpredictability.
Love enjoyed playing time at strong safety and free safety in 2019, giving him the ability to act as a utility man. On a conference call this week, head coach Joe Judge mentioned changing positions based on opposing offenses. It will be exciting to see how they utilize the trio of safeties. They are one of the more promising units on the defense.
