The New York Giants landed cornerback Darnay Holmes with their first pick on day 3 of the NFL Draft:

The Giants elected to go cornerback with their first pick on day three of the 2020 NFL draft. UCLA defender Darnay Holmes was the selection, standing at 5-foot-10 and 195 pounds.

He’s a bit undersized but runs a speedy 4.48 40 yard dash. Despite his small frame, he is strong and has an aggressive mentality. He is a high upside corner that will likely be a strong special-teams player for the future. His big negatives are having tight hips and a lack of instincts in coverage, and can sometimes fall off of routes.
