The Giants say the defensive-tackle position will be deeper by the start of the season after trading Dexter Lawrence, with coach John Harbaugh and GM Joe Schoen indicating more DT additions are coming. They’ve drafted sixth-rounder Bobby Jamison-Travis and are in talks with veteran DT agents, signaling ongoing efforts to bolster the interior line.
The New York Giants used a sixth-round pick on Bobby Jamison-Travis, a 6-foot-3-plus, 328-pound defensive tackle from Auburn with JUCO roots, aiming to bolster interior run defense after trading Dexter Lawrence. The Giants hosted him for a visit and indicated he was their top late-round DT target, praising his size, length and power. Analysts say he has NFL size and anchor but may need development to improve block shedding and pass rush upside.
The New York Giants finally addressed the interior with Auburn nose guard Bobby Jamison-Travis at No. 186 in Round 6, a 6'3", 330+ lb run-stuffer whose grit and anchor-down style project as a stout on-early-down disruptor for Harbaugh’s defense, even if he isn’t a threat for interior pass rush; his climb from JUCO to Auburn underscores the 'grit' the Giants want as they rebuild the interior in a thinner nose-tackle class.
