The others
Linebacker Tae Crowder, this year’s Mr. Irrelevant, was placed on the non-football injury list with a foot ailment. As a seventh round pick, his prospects of making the roster were limited and now his chances could be even slimmer.
The Giants drafted three other linebackers — Cam Brown, T.J. Brunson and Carter Coughlin — who don’t appear to be ready to challenge for starting roles. Another seventh rounder, cornerback Chris Williamson, will also have to fight for a role in a crowded DB field.
As for UDFAs, there are wide receivers Austin Mack of Ohio State and LSU’s Derrick Dillon who will have to wow the coaches to make this roster, as will Rysen John, a tight end project from Canada.
