New York Giants Shouldn’t Hesitate to Pull Trigger on Elite Pass-Rush Specialist

If there’s any one player that the New York Giants shouldn’t hesitate to pull the trigger on, it’s Kentucky’s, Josh Allen. The elite-level linebacker has the capability of playing in the middle of the defense alongside Alec Ogletree or as an outside linebacker.

Allen’s talents have a broad range – speed, range, agility, consistency…in 2018, he racked up an impressive 21.5 tackles for a loss and 17 total sacks. His 56 total tackles also promote his efficiency when around the ball carrier. At 6’5″, 262 pounds, Allen has a prototypical frame that has room for further growth.
