The New York Giants defensive front seven will look much different in 2018 than it did a season ago. For one, the team is transitioning from a 4-3 to a 3-4 defense, and secondly, the Giants traded away one of the best pass rushers in the history of the franchise in Jason Pierre-Paul.
With the departure of JPP, there’s only one player on the Giants defense that has ever recorded double-digit sacks in a season and that’s Olivier Vernon who had 11.5 back in 2013 when he was a Miami Dolphin.
These are some of the factors that Pro Football Focus took into account when they did their pass rush rankings for 2018 and ranked the Giants 29th.
