James Bettcher wants to get aggressive with additions of Dexter Lawrence, Deandre Baker

The New York Giants defense went through a transformation over the 2018 offseason, coming through looking quite different from the defense of 2016 and 2017.

After a disappointing performance in the 2018 season, the GIants are transforming their defense again, and while the scheme might be the same, there will be many new faces on the field in 2019. Most notably, the defensive secondary has been almost completely made over, but there has been turnover at every level of the defense.

Considering the Giants spent seven of their ten draft picks on defensive players — eight of eleven if we are counting Sam Beal — many of those new players will be rookies.
