Ximines was the lone edge rusher the Giants took in the draft (95th overall). He’s not projected to be a starter, but he is expected to help on passing downs and revitalize a pass rush that could only garner 30 sacks last season.

The Old Dominion product tallied 32.5 sacks during his collegiate career and general manager Dave Gettleman believes he’s a player they need to make their pass rush formidable again.
