Did you mention he was more of a press-man corner? If so, then this trade makes a ton of sense. Despite playing well in some starts at the end of last year, Yiadom is not a press man corner. He is so bad at it in fact, and the rest of our CB group outside of Bradberry were so bad at it, that our DC had to completely change the defense to be almost entirely zone, despite the fact that he is normally a heavy user of man schemes. The Giants made a point to acquire ONLY man corners this offseason. Aaron Robinson in the 3rd, Rodarius Williams in the 6th, Adoree Jackson in FA... all guys who can cover man to man. If Jackson trends more in that direction, then this trade makes more sense.

Both are likely CB6 on their respective teams.  Josh Jackson isn't a press CB by any means.
