Heading into the 2020 NFL Draft, I felt that even though the NY Giants had a strong 1-2 punch, there was still room for more in the runningback room, particularly in the short-yardage area. While undrafted free-agent addition, Javon Leake, won’t totally fit that billing, he has the size and explosives to be an exciting ‘back.
The Giants liked him enough to guarantee him 75K – the third-highest out of all the UDFA’s – although I guess you could say if they liked him so much, they would have used one of their 7th round picks on him.
