Best fit with Wan'Dale and Hyatt? Nabers or Odunze

I would love either one. Might be leaning toward Nabers with that speed. Look what Tyrek Hill does to defenses.

In all seriousness though, I think Odunze's skill-set would fit best with his contested catch ability, size and red zone potential. I also think he would be great in the locker room and a natural leader, mental makeup is AAA quality.

Is to not trade up, draft Odunze, and have Bo Nix fall to us in round 2

I don't think Bo Nix will make it past pick 12 let alone pick 47, but who knows.

For me, from what I've watched he seems to get more open than Odunze and have more YAC ability, speed kills. Seems to have the quicks to play in the slot as well.

at running after the catch. I'd rather trade down if Odunze is the only one of the three top wideouts left and take Brian Thomas, who I think will be a better nfl receiver than Odunze.

he gets separation. I prefer that over contested catch guys.

He's thick, fast, and the Giants need a top notch WR with a bit of attitude.

both played both inside out.
both are explosive and dynamic.
both had low drop rates.

im partial to odunze but either one is an A/A+ pick i think. either trio would be one of the best young trios in nfl.

or even worse at 4. Get one of these perennial pro bowl wr's then go after Penix in a move up. Penix is just as good a bet as Maye or McCarthy and the investment is much less.

who can actually notice when they are open and get them the ball.

and the Giants could use both. A real, explosive movement Z like Garrett Wilson or Jefferson would be a killer add. Odunze would be a bad fit if Jones winds up taking meaningful snaps in 2024, as Jones has shown a tendency to shy away from contested catch situations. He couldn't get in sync with Golladay. And he has trouble throwing fades and throwing to leverage points.

Without question.

but faster. I dont think you have to worry about who is the better fit with the other WRs, you just get the best player.

Harrison to me is the best, followed by Nabers and then Odunze. It's very close though and they have different skill sets. Harrison seems like the sure thing/safer pick to be a stud.

Better short yardage receiver.

He’s the No. 1 guy that can do everything. Go over the middle, outmuscle you in the end zone, and go over the top. Wan’dale is the slot receiver that works the middle of the field and gets first down, and Hyatt is the big play deep threat. A perfect combination of everything you want.

You giving out A grades on things hasn’t worked out well in the past.

YAC and aeration. I think the Giants value that more than size

Imagine how hard a guy like Nabers is to tackle. Especially now that they banned tackling…lol

This rule change brings a further advantage to those guys like Deebo, Chase, Kupp who are really good and dynamic and difficult to bring down with the ball in their hands.

makes it almost a moot point.

Find someone who throws downfield first and then we can deal with this “ideal state” later.

Nabers may not even be there. I can see LA taking him or some team trying to jump the Giants for him like what happened with DeVonta Smith.

People forget how highly regarded he was right when the season ended..
He in my opinion is the BPA.
If he is available we need to get him!!!

The least likely of the WRs available at 6.

Harrison Jr. being there @ 6 isn't so outlandish. For arguments sake, 4 QBs go before us. I could see a team taking Nabers over Harrison Jr. & voila...he's there @ 6. & hell if he's old man, we'd be fortunate in that scenario.

with the speedsters, and he just gives me 12 years with the same franchise/heart of a team vibes. He has a lot of those dominant X traits like catch radius, the body control, hands catcher. We talk about him so little, he's often the afterthought at 6 but that's not a reflection of him, just the overall talent.

Nabers to me is more the "modern" NFL receiver, if that makes sense. Average height, thick and kinda built like a RB, the crazy speed and all the characteristics that brings- acceleration, change of direction, etc etc.

This last paragraph I've typed out twice, because it would be hard to pass on Nabers and that's who I originally thought I'd go with. But I have just have a feeling Odunze is gonna be a 10 year captain, Ring of Honor type player and if you really believe that I don't think you pass on the guy.


Ask me this 3 days in a row and you'll get both names, I'm sure.

I have the same feeling about Odunze. If we go WR and it's not MHJ then I want Odunze and I'd love to pair him with his QB in Penix.

but I’m not sure that matters. Wandale has 2 years left and who knows if Hyatt will be good. Take who you think is the best player.

Yes, I do think Harrison could be there for the Giants.

However, we know how Daboll and Kafka love to move guys around and keep the defense guessing. Nabers can play all over. Hyatt you want more in the slot but can play outside on certain plays. Wandale is a slot guy. I think having the flexibility is something Daboll will covet but the good news is that you are in a win win situation.

Possible yes, if AZ trades out. They are the key to MHjr.

My vote hands down.

You'd think after watching the draft year after year folks would stop making statements like "Player X will NEVER be there at pick Y!". But they do it every year.

Could you imagine a Josh Allen redux where they pass? I mean, shit, they're even picking 6th again.

but fuck it, get talent, work the rest out later.

Means he doesn't get separation. He's not Nabers but he's plenty fast and is a great route runner. With a pro coach he's only going to get better. This is not a lumbering power forward.

Nabers probably won't be resigned....as he will seak top dollars.

Odunze seems to be someone who will sign for less to be part of something

Total speculation

= Larry Fitzgerald

So you think that Nabers will seek "top dollars" and Odunze won't?

LOL. Your ability to get inside the heads of how rookie WRs will be feeling 5 years from now is quite impressive.

I get that you say that it's "total speculation" on your part, but based on what exactly?

I think QBs go in the top 3. Then I expect either AZ or the LAC will trade out and the team trading up to take QB-4 (probably McCarthy).

That means whichever one of AZ or the LAC that does NOT trade out will take MHJ.

If the Giants did not trade up to 3, 4 or 5 for a QB, then I think they take Nabers at 6. (My guess is that Daboll prefers the speed, separation and YAC ability of Nabers over Odunze.)

The only way I see the Giants taking Odunze is if none of the top 5 teams trade out. In that scenario I see 3 QB plus MHJ and Nabers going in the top 5.

compared Odunze to Larry Fitzgerald, yet he has him as his 3rd ranked wide receiver, and he mocked him recently going #9. I guess if you think your getting Larry Fitz, you take Odunze.

People come up with these weird takes about the personalities of these prospects. They think they know them based on scant information. So you wind up with Odunze is loyal. Nabers is selfish. Caleb Williams is stupid. I wish folks would check their uninformed hot takes at the door, rather tha projecting their preconceptions onto the players.

Is beyond elite in his double, sometimes triple, moves going into his break….at full speed. Look at his highlights. I am almost certain he gets drafted before MHJ

Are 6’3” and Nabors is 6’ if size is desired on your outside WR.

Not who fits with Wan'Dale Robinson and Hyatt. That would be silly/stupid.

Neither has shown enough to be even a small factor in who to pick with the #6 pick in the draft.

Has shown enough to me to influence the thinking of pick 6. I'm strictly taking the best WR/player available, which I believe is Nabers in this hypothetical.

Nabers looks like a faster version of Justin Jefferson. I think his best comp though is Beckham.

Yes. Are either of them even reliable number threes at this point?

I've heard NFL analysts compare Odunze to Fitzgerald, I haven't heard Nabers being compared to Hill.

Wan'Dale Robinson and Jalin Hyatt look like the real deal. But that's me.

Hyatt still has a lot to prove, but Robinson, to me, has star potential. I can see a breakout year for him.
