The Geeeeeeee-MEN. Let’s go @Giants
We needed a safety. And my man Tyler Nubin is an old school safety. He has great instincts. You want him around the box. That why he didn’t run at the combine. He is comfortable being physical and mixing it up with the big boys. Tough as hell— Chris Simms (@CSimmsQB) April 27, 2024
The board didn’t fall great for the #Giants in Rd 2 but I’m pretty damn happy with S Tyler Nubin.
He has instincts in the deep half that are KEY in DC Shane Bowen’s system & I felt like he was one of the 40 best players in the class so this wasn’t a we know more than you pick.— Dan Schneier (@DanSchneierNFL) April 27, 2024

I touched base with an NFL defensive coordinator who raved about Tyler Nubin.
Tough, instinctual & tremendous leader. Most impressive: “Ball skills,” he said.

The #Giants add another DB in Andru Phillips, who will compete to start opposite Deonte Banks. Here was my synopsis of him:
Andru Phillips is a tough-minded explosive athlete with impressive movement skills and fluidity to flip his hips, stay balanced, and keep his eyes on…

Had several scouts tell me Andru Phillips was one of the best interviews they conducted pre-draft. Very heady player.

Who else just saw how happy #Giants DBs coach Jerome Henderson looked to get CB Andru Phillips?!
Can I get a @EdwardsCBS take??

The #Giants are drafting Kentucky CB Andru Phillips at pick No. 70 in the third round. So the defensive backfield reinforced greatly on Day 2.
