The New York Giants‘ 2019 NFL Draft can be graded across the board. At some points, it was an “A” and others a “D”, but there’s one unit that was significantly upgraded changing the entire narrative.
Going into the draft the Giants’ cornerback group was considered the weakest unit on the team, consisting of just Janoris Jenkins, Grant Haley, and Sam Beal. After spending a ton of capital on the cornerback position, the team now features DeAndre Baker, Julian Love, and one of the more underrated players of the crop, Corey Ballentine.
Ballentine signed his rookie contract with his new team on Wednesday, officially making him a part of a rejuvenated defense after being shot in the bottom several weeks ago.
