Olivier Vernon and Damon Harrison to the New York Giants

This one is easy. The Giants gave up the 24th-most Adjusted Defensive NEP per play last season, as well as a 0.10 Rushing NEP per play last year on runs up the middle. Their defensive line was in absolute shambles, with the injury Jason Pierre-Paul suffered and waiving Damontre Moore.

Damon Harrison anchored the Jets’ interior defensive line in 2015, however, as they allowed a -0.13 Rushing NEP per play on rushes up the gut. Signing Olivier Vernon to bolster the pass rush was the cherry on top of this defensive free agent coup, as he raked in 9.5 sacks last year. The G-Men look ready to roll on the other side of the ball in 2016.
