Julian Love

Love didn't take over as a starting safety for the Giants until the 2022 season. He made a statement with the opportunity, posting 124 tackles, five pass breakups, two interceptions and a sack through 16 games. He's not going to have a full-time gig in Seattle because Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs are locked into starting roles, but he'd immediately become an autostart for fantasy purposes if Adams gets injured, something that has been common over the last three years.

Love played in each of the Giants' 17 games last season, notching five starts and finishing with a career-high 66 tackles along with half a sack and one interception. The Notre Dame product is expected to take on a larger role in 2022, as he'll be counted on as a full-time starter at free safety with the departures of Logan Ryan and Jabrill Peppers. The transition to a starting spot means New York no longer will be able to take full advantage of Love's versatility - he's earned the nickname "Duct Tape" for his ability to patch holes wherever needed in the secondary - but the move should be a positive one overall for the 24-year-old, giving him a chance to break out next to star strong safety Xavier McKinney.

A 2019 fourth-round pick, Love had a solid sophomore season, with 64 tackles, three passes defensed and one interception. This year, he'll be challenged for snaps as Jabrill Peppers, Logan Ryan and last year's second-rounder, Xavier McKinney, are all likely to see regular work at the safety spots.

Last year's fourth-round pick, Love will back up rookie Xavier McKinney and Jabrill Peppers at safety.

So long as New York's secondary remains healthy, the rookie out of Notre Dame isn't expected to field an every-down defensive workload in 2019. The Giants invested a fourth-round pick in Love this April, but with Antoine Bethea -- who has started 13-plus games in 11 of 13 NFL seasons -- situated as the starting free safety, Love is likely to be played more in slot coverage or on special teams.
