New York Giants: 53-man roster prediction after 2020 offseason
By Evan Orris
Cornerbacks (6, 50/53)
- 1. James Bradberry
- 2. DeAndre Baker
- 3. Darnay Holmes
- 4. Grant Haley
- 5. Sam Beal
- 6. Corey Ballentine
Bradberry was signed to a 3-year $43.5 million deal this offseason. Before the Giants, Bradberry was with the Carolina Panthers, and was drafted by current Giants GM Dave Gettleman in 2016.
Baker will be starting opposite of Bradberry most likely. Baker had a wild offseason as he was arrested for robbery and assault, and plead not guilty to all of the charges. Baker’s lawyers are said to have witnesses to help exonerate Baker.
Holmes was drafted in the 4th round of the 2020 NFL Draft. Holmes shot up draft boards after a solid combine showing. He will most likely be a slot corner for the Giants as that’s where he fits best.
Haley, Beal, and Ballentine will all compete for playing time, but will mainly make the team as special teams players.
