You draft Simmons not as a piece that is pressure related. He is a guy you can use in blitzes but that’s not who he is. Simmons is the guy that chases down backs from sideline to sideline not allowing the edge. Simmons is a guy you put behind a big DT like Lawrence so he can go RB hunting. Simmons is a guy you say fallow Ertz in the passing game. He is your assignment. You put Simmons next to Collins and you have 2 good inside linebackers that can fill gaps in a hurry and give teams problems running the ball. But Simmons can cover something the giants have needed for years.
If the Giants bring in Van Noy and draft Simmons and bring in McCourty and give big money to Yannick Ngakoue. The Giants will be improved leaps and bounds. Think. Ngakoue Simmons Collins Van Noy at Linebacker with Tomlinson Lawrence and Hill in front of them. Not bad. Cater, Xman, Mayo as back ups. Secondary. Baker, Harris, Beal, Ballentine, Peppers , McCourty, Love. That a good start to a new roster. And it really won’t break the Bank either. Your biggest contracts will be Ngokue and Harris. McCourty And Van Noy won’t be huge contracts.
