As Banks enters his second season and first as the clear-cut CB1, we examine his game against the Green Bay Packers last season to gauge his best talents and areas for improvement.
When the New York Giants selected Deonte Banks with the 24th pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, he was the fourth cornerback taken, and a player that the Giants’ front office felt they got a steal at the pick.
The Giants’ game against the Green Bay Packers illustrated the many dimensions of Banks’s game. He played on the outside and covered receivers in the slot. He played in press man and off man. He also played in a good amount of zone coverage. The Good of Deonte Banks is his explosiveness and how he utilizes it in games to break on passes or redirect to chase.When Banks plays off the receiver, his game's explosive element allows him to quickly close the distance on a route. He can keep the cushion necessary to position the receiver in front of him and when that receiver tries to snap off a shorter route, he is able to close on the ball and make it a difficult pass for the quarterback.
The Great of Deonte Banks is his speed and that ability to carry receivers or remain in step with them.If you react too early, they snap off shower routes that you are not in position to defend. If you sit too long, the receiver separates from you before you can get to top speed. The Ugly of Deonte Banks is his tackling. It is probably a combination of willingness and uncertainty but it is definitely an area of needed improvement.It's hard to tell if fear or indecision caused Banks to look so uncomfortable. If you were to hypothesize based on the film, you would probably say a little of both: Fear of the unknown and not exactly understanding his run fits or how to use a proper tackling form that works for him.
