Even if nothing else happens this offseason, the Giants now at least have somebody who can play inside linebacker.
The Giants agreed to terms on a new three-year contract with pending free agent David Mayo on Friday night, bringing back the veteran defender and special teamer at a position that had gotten so thin it would be erroneous to call it a depth chart. The Giants had released Alec Ogletree earlier this offseason and are hoping Ryan Connolly can return from an ACL injury that cut short an abbreviated but promising rookie season.
