EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The New York Giants have agreed to terms with fourth-round draft pick Phillip Dillard of Nebraska and signed sixth-round draft pick Adrian Tracy of William & Mary.
The Giants announced the deals with the two linebackers on Tuesday. The team now has three of its seven draft picks under contract. Safety Chad Jones, the team’s third-round pick, signed last week.
Dillard is expected to sign his contract on Wednesday.
Dillard started 17 games in four seasons at Nebraska, recording 173 tackles. He also has played both weakside and outside linebacker positions and is good on pass coverage.
Tracy played defensive end at William & Mary, but he is projected as an outside linebacker in the NFL. He had 78 tackles last season, including 22 tackles for losses. He also had 12 sacks.
