The New York Giants wrapped up their 2019 rookie minicamp on Sunday as the 2019 draft class got their first extended exposure to the team facility, the practice field, the coaching staff, and their playbooks. The Giants rookie class was joined by a slew of undrafted rookie free agent signings and tryout players -- three of whom were signed at the conclusion of the minicamp. With the first set of rookie OTAs in the books and a set of full-team OTAs coming up next after a week break, today we're going to break down seven things we learned about the Giants rookie class at the minicamp.

1. Daniel Jones has traits that fit Pat Shurmur's offensive scheme

NFL Network game tape analyst Brian Baldinger called Jones one of the most athletic quarterbacks to ever join the Giants franchise and his athleticism was on full display during the team's rookie minicamp. When the play didn't develop as expected, Jones bypassed holding the ball too long and taking a quarterback pressure or throwing to a wide receiver in coverage and instead opted to tuck it and run on several occasions at minicamp. Whenever Jones sees the field, he will offer the Giants another option for getting a first down on dropback passes via his legs.

More importantly, Jones looked natural and maintained his accuracy when throwing on the run on designed bootleg passes outside of the pocket. Jones was also able to maintain accuracy and velocity while throwing against the grain (and rolling to his left), according to practice reports, via Giants.com. When forced to escape the pocket, Jones also maintained his accuracy on the run.

When Jones sees the field, he will offer an upgraded athleticism to the quarterback position and this will allow Shurmur to expand his playbook with a mix of zone-read in game-specific situations (and in the red zone) and plays designed to move the quarterback out of the pocket before he attempts the pass.

2. Deandre Baker doesn't allow for much separation

When the Giants traded up to draft Baker, they believed they were getting the best coverage cornerback in the class. General manager Dave Gettleman said as much after making the selection. According to Pro Football Focus' game charting, Baker was one of the two best cornerbacks overall during the past two seasons. We know from Baker that he almost always matched up and shadowed opposing No. 1 wide receivers and Georgia played most of its games against the best football conference in college football in the SEC.

During the minicamp, it didn't take long for Baker to show what the Giants think they found in him. Baker was sticky in coverage throughout the entirety of each minicamp practice. On one play, he flashed big-play ability by deflecting a deep ball thrown by Daniel Jones to the safety for an interception.

The Giants want Baker to be an "island" cornerback they can leave alone in man coverage and that plan is looking like it will come to fruition in his very first NFL game against the Dallas Cowboys.

3. Darius Slayton can create separation naturally

Slayton's rookie minicamp was filled with its ups and downs. Although Slayton suffered from dropped passes at the beginning of his first rookie minicamp practice, he rebounded by making several big catches to close out practice. More importantly, Slayton consistently created separation in his routes with his natural speed (4.39) and explosiveness (135-inch broad jump). Jones continued to show faith in him by throwing the ball in his direction when he created enough separation to get open and by the end of practice Slayton paid off his trust. After practice, Shurmur praised Slayton's separation skills.

We're excited to see the chemistry develop between Jones and Slayton throughout the rest of OTAs and into training camp.

4. CJ Conrad has an excellent chance to make the roster

According to a combination of Giants.com practice reports and beat reporters on site, Conrad was heavily involved in catching passes from Jones during the rookie minicamp. If you don't know much about Conrad's story, he was expected to be a mid-round draft pick until a medical condition complicated his pre-draft process at The Combine. The Giants made him a priority undrafted rookie free agent signing shortly after the draft and he had arguably the most consistent performance among all offensive players during the rookie minicamp.

Conrad was billed as more of a blocker by NFL scouts -- in spite of his size (6-4, 249 pounds). However, during the minicamp, he showed off his receiving ability and the early results suggest the Giants certainly have something to work with.

5. Julian Love is going to learn multiple defensive roles

Love played a variety of different positions in the Notre Dame secondary and that will be the same for his role with the Giants. Shortly after the draft, Gettleman proposed the possibility of Love transitioning to free safety at some point for the Giants, and that is a position he as seen defensive snaps at in college, but we don't expect that transition to begin until the 2020 offseason at the earliest. For now, the Giants are locked in with veteran free agent signing Antoine Bethea at free safety.

The fastest path to playing time for Love is in the slot where his physicality will help him earn the team's starting nickel cornerback spot. In the modern NFL, defenses use the nickel defensive package most often (supplanting the base package). If Love wins this role, he's going to be on the field a lot. This battle will intensify during training camp as Love, Baker, Corey Ballentine, and 2018 third-round Supplemental Draft pick Sam Beal fight to earn the No. 2 and 3 spots on the depth chart at cornerback behind Janoris Jenkins.

6. Dexter Lawrence is going to learn multiple defensive roles

If you're noticing a trend about the Giants defense, the one word we would use to describe it is versatility. The Giants preach versatility at every position on their defense from the down linemen, to the second-level linebackers, and all the way back into the secondary. If you take a look across the revamped Giants roster in the Gettleman-Shurmur regime, this is the one commonality that stands out.

This is no different for Lawrence who immediately opened rookie minicamp practicing in each of the three different positions on the Giants defensive line. Ultimately, we believe Lawrence will be a three-down defensive lineman who replaces Dalvin Tomlinson as he shifts inside to the nose tackle position on passing downs. On the early downs, Lawrence is the favorite to begin the regular season as the team's starting 5-tech (left) defensive end.

7. George Asafo-Adjei is staying at right tackle

The rookie seventh-round draft pick practiced at right tackle throughout the entirety of rookie minicamp. Although it's clear based on where he was drafted that some NFL teams view him as a player who will have to transition to offensive guard to make it in the NFL, the Giants feel like they've seen enough to give him a legitimate opportunity at right tackle. Shurmur confirmed he will remain at right tackle. It helps that Asafo-Adjei had the opportunity to match up and practice his pass protection against No. 7 overall pick Josh Allen in practice every day at Kentucky.

We're excited to see Asafo-Adjei compete with incumbent starting right tackle Chad Wheeler in training camp.
