Brandon Graham
Prediction: New York Giants

Brandon Graham needs the right fit, and the Giants look to be just that. The Giants would be willing to deploy him as a 4-3 defensive end, something he is perfectly suited to do at 265 pounds, and Graham has been wildly effective as a pass-rusher despite a limited role with the Eagles.

In that vein, Graham has posted a pass rushing productivity rating (per Pro Football Focus) of 17.7, and that places him in an elite category off the edge. New York will be looking to replace Mathias Kiwanuka opposite Jason Pierre-Paul, and Graham would look to be a perfect fit.

Things haven’t quite gone according to plan for the former Michigan Wolverine since he was selected with the 13th pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, but a new home could change that in a hurry.
