The first free agency of the New York Giants saw the team meeting several flagrant needs in defensive secondary, the defensive line, the offensive line and the special teams, which was enough to win the club A note from B of pro football focus.
The popular analysis site has evaluated seven major signatures (or, in some cases, feredes) by the team, based on these assessments on the overall note that it allocated to the players after the 2024 season and the value of the contracts signed by the players.
Of the seven agreements, only two, those of the Paulson Adebo corner half and the Darius Slayton receiver, were classified “above the average”, the average depending on the type of PFF contract estimated for the player.
These two contracts have entered into what PFF initially projected for players, representing a value greater than the average.
From Slayton, whose return to the Giants surprised many people, PFF had planned an agreement of $ 26 million ($ 18 million) of $ 36 million.
The real Slayton contract was 3 years and 40 million dollars ($ 13.3 million APY), which has made a good deal for a receiver who posted at least 600 reception yards in the past four of the last five seasons and has at least 17 explosive games in five of the last six.
When he was stacked against his contemporaries, the Acy of Slayton ranks 23rd among receivers.
The Adebo contract is expected to arrive at 3 years and $ 54 million ($ 18 million APY); Instead, the Giants were able to obtain it for 3 years and 40 million dollars ($ 13.3 million APY). Adebo, who is fortunate to become a CB1 for the giants, has an APY who currently puts it 15th among the corner half.
The giants and the rest of the NFL start week 2 or the second wave of free agency this week, looking for a quarter-Arrière de Pont veteran.
