2026 NFL free agency grades: Justin Fields, Rasheed Walker | ESPN.com
Giants signing LB Tremaine Edmunds. Terms: Three years, $36 million. Grade: C. I’ll add a caveat to this by saying linebackers are hard to quantify, but Edmunds’ tackle rate against the run was only in the 32nd percentile among off-ball linebackers last season, while his run stop win rate was in the 34th percentile. He did have four interceptions last season, but he also allowed 1.1 yards per coverage snap (higher than average).
Looking at free agency rankings, opinions are split on Edmunds. But considering the top linebacker, Devin Lloyd, is getting $15 million per year and Devin Bush — who is signing with the Bears — is getting only $10 million per year, the $12 million Edmunds is receiving seems a little rich.
Baldy: Keep an eye on the Giants2026 NFL free agency grades for all 32 teams | PFF
New York Giants: C. This one-year deal for CB Greg Newsome II comes in right around PFF’s projected per-year average. Newsome struggled in each of the past two seasons after earning PFF coverage grades between 69.9 and 72.3 from 2021 to 2023. He is just 25 years old, so there is still room for growth, and a one-year pact gives him the opportunity to prove that he deserves a bigger deal in the future.

Calvin Austin was given the chance to be the Steelers’ WR2 but never settled into the role. His 2025 season was a trying one, recording a 55.4 PFF receiving grade and dropping 8.1% of his passes. Austin could be a relatively cheap and fast replacement to Wan’Dale Robinson in the slot, but he’s yet to hit his NFL potential.

Take your pick between right guard and defensive tackle. For all of new coach John Harbaugh’s emphasis on the trenches, the Giants were shockingly inactive on the interior of both lines…
