New York Giants News, 6/16 – Julian Love a darkhorse at corner

While New York Giants rookie DeAndre Baker takes up all the headlines with his stellar play this offseason, fourth-round pick Julian Love has gotten lost in the shuffle.

Love, a Notre Dame product, stuck out like a “sore thumb” on the Giants’ draft board, according to Dave Gettleman. His quality coverage skills and tenacity forced the Giants’ hand when he flashed across their screen. Adding both Love and Baker completely overhauls a secondary that consisted of just Janoris Jenkins, Grant Haley, and Sam Beal prior to the draft

Former Giants, Justin Tuck, believes the young corner was an absolute steal:

“I love that pick,” Tuck said via NJ Advance Media.
