Getty\u00a0New York Giants second-round safety selection Tyler Nubin has been pegged as a “culture changer.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
New York Giants\u00a0second-round safety\u00a0Tyler Nubin\u00a0enters the organization with high expectations.<\/p>\n
\u201c[NYG general manager] Joe Schoen calls him a culture changer,\u201d New York Post beat reporter Paul Schwartz relayed\u00a0on the Blue Rush podcast\u00a0with Brandon London after the\u00a0NFL draft.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Schoen] thought he was a culture changer at Minnesota,\u201d Schwartz went on, regarding Nubin. \u201cHe thinks he can help bring some of that to the Giants.\u201d<\/p>\n
Earlier, Schwartz also pointed out the playmaking ability of Nubin during his college career.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Nubin] had 13 career interceptions at Minnesota \u2014 he\u2019s a ball hawk,\u201d the reporter voiced. \u201cHe\u2019s big, he\u2019s strong. Fast enough. It remains to be seen how great he is if he gets singled up in coverage.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t forget, this is a different defensive scheme,\u201d Schwartz noted, while detailing Nubin as a potential replacement for\u00a0Xaiver McKinney. \u201cI think the ball hawk element is going to be very important [in Shane Bowen\u2019s scheme], that\u2019s what he is. He\u2019s not the sideline-to-sideline sprinting threat that Xavier McKinney is\u2026 but the way the scheme was set up under Wink Martindale, [McKinney] was not in position to make a ton of plays in that regard.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Giants insider concluded that Big Blue \u201cwill try to get Tyler Nubin into position to make more of those [game-changing] plays because he\u2019s shown when he\u2019s in position [that] he can go up and get the ball.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ahead of the draft, NFL Network scouting expert\u00a0Lance Zierlein stated\u00a0that Nubin \u201cwill make his money as a ball thief.\u201d Zierlein also added that \u201cNubin\u2019s traits, instincts and ball skills give him an opportunity to become a successful long-term starter.\u201d<\/p>\n
Generally speaking, this pick was also graded well by analysts after the draft.<\/p>\n
\u201cAn NFL defensive backs coach told\u00a0The Athletic\u2019<\/em>s Bruce Feldman, \u2018I think Nubin is the best true middle-field safety in the draft,\u2019\u201d The Athletic\u2019s NYG beat writer\u00a0Dan Duggan relayed\u00a0on April 26.<\/p>\n His colleague Scott Dochterman graded this selection an \u201cA\u201d overall. Reasoning that Nubin is \u201cmaybe the most underrated player in the draft [and] was both a solid coverage safety and a tremendous tackler at Minnesota.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cHe will step in immediately for McKinney and thrive,\u201d Dochterman continued. \u201cWith 43 starts at Minnesota, Nubin was experienced and highly respected. He finished his career with a school-record 13 interceptions and 24 passes defended, as well as 207 tackles. He\u2019s a Day 1 starter.\u201d<\/p>\n It would seem that the Giants filled at least one hole in the draft.<\/p>\n Nubin\u00a0posted a sort of hype video\u00a0ahead of the draft on April 8, and the six-minute clip gives Giants nation a sense of who the Minnesota product is as a player and a leader.<\/p>\n Before getting to the highlight reel, one of Nubin\u2019s postgame speeches is featured in the post.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat an opportunity, man,\u201d the speech begins. \u201cWe worked six months, seven months for this bro, for just 12 opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n Not only does Nubin hold the attention of the room throughout the speech, but his words also carry the weight of a veteran.<\/p>\n \u201cEvery single one of y\u2019all got a story,\u201d he continued later. \u201cEvery single one of y\u2019all is here for a different reason\u2026 That\u2019s what gives you that fire, that\u2019s what gives you that passion on the field. Use it out there, bro. Use it out there. Every single play, go use that. And let them feel it. Let them feel why you here, let them feel why you play this game, let them feel why you love this [expletive]. Because I guarantee you, we going to want that [expletive] more than them.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe just stay poised, we just stay together, we play football. Every single down,\u201d Nubin\u2019s locker room moment ended. \u201cIt\u2019s that simple.\u201d<\/p>\n The Nubin selection reiterates a theme under Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll. The Giants brass isn\u2019t just attempting to add talent, they\u2019re trying to shape a new culture for this organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Getty\u00a0New York Giants second-round safety selection Tyler Nubin has been pegged as a “culture changer.” New York Giants\u00a0second-round safety\u00a0Tyler Nubin\u00a0enters the organization with high expectations. \u201c[NYG general… <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":115829,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-115828","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115828","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=115828"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115828\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":115830,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/115828\/revisions\/115830"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/115829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=115828"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=115828"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mlbhi.aweu.info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=115828"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
