With Nabers a favorite at #6 how do the Giants WRs look

GFAN52 : 4/17/2024 10:04 am
when compared to the rest of the NFC East. Does a lineup with Hyatt, Nabers and Robinson matchup well?
Nabers

Is not my favorite. I really prefer Odunze. Much bigger target.
You did it GFAN

Christian’s radar is up because you forgot to mention Slayton :)

A stud number 1 WR makes all the other WRs better and in more comfortable roles.

The biggest question mark is TE. Walker really has them in a bind.

I prefer Odunze personally as well, but just going by the betting odds and draft analysts, Nabers is the favorite pick to be selected by the Giants.
Yes. For the first time since Nicks, Cruz and Manningham, we'll have

a group of receivers that is both strong and deep.

one of the stud receivers immediately transforms the entire WR room. It would be an awesome outcome.

However, the Giants will be falling further behind in the QB arms race in the division once the Commanders take Daniels.

I mean, wasn’t this said when OBJ came here and was playing with Shepard and Cruz? Nothing is guaranteed.
I still think we look to trade up for a QB  
Biteymax22 : 4/17/2024 10:17 am : link
Or take Odunze. As popular of a mock draft selection as Nabers is, I don't think he's the guy we take.

I sensed the disruption in the universe, I thought maybe it was the breakfast tacos.

If the Giants pick Nabers, the presumptive starting receivers are Nabers, Slayton, and Robinson. Hopefully Hyatt unseats Slayton, but I wouldn't bet on that early on.
Breakfast tacos?

I agree with Bitey
and to answer your question, my gut says it would be Maye @ 4 Or Odunze @ 6.

The only reason I say 4 is because Arizona seems like the first team who does not go QB but does not what to fall too far to miss out one of the 3 wideouts.

I agree completely and that is the problem with going WR at1.06. Where (and when) are we getting a QB? If somehow we could get Nix or Pennix, it might be ok. However, in all likelyhood, that would mean surrendering next year's 1st to move up high enough for either of those guys. If that is not in the cards, we are doomed for *at least* two more years of shitty football and no real chance of being a contender. Throw in that a Nabers or Odunze would be screaming at their agent to get them out of NY after playing 2 years trying to lasso Jones' off target throws and you have an even bigger problem - no QB or WR1.

If there is no QB drafted (with a legitimate chance of becoming a starter), all hope lies with Drew Lock. That's pretty scarey.

Arizona and Maye. I could be wrong on this but I have a few things bringing me to this
Adding a potential stud WR  
Rudy5757 : 4/17/2024 12:35 pm : link
Immediately makes this team better. All of the other WRs get to move one spot down. Slayton as our #1 is poor. He can move to 3 or 4 with Robinson the 2 and Hyatt can be the 3 or 4.

Slayton is a great 3 or 4 and a terrible 1.

What are the things bringing you to this?
Nabers with a trade up for Penix is the smart move  
The Mike : 4/17/2024 1:19 pm : link
In Nabers, along with Slayton and Hyatt, we will have three WRs who each can take the top off the defense. 01 personnel with Penix at the helm would instantly be the most explosive passing formation on paper this franchise has ever had, assuming Waller still wants to play and Robinson is the slot/motion guy.

Make it so Joe!

NE needs a QB. I think McCarthy is both a system and personality fit. Arizona needs a WR, swapping with us at 6 guarantees then a blue chip. Ryan Cowden worked with AZ’s GM in Tennessee, relationships are huge in trades.
There are 3-4 guys with similar odds for pick 6.

There is no definitive favorite.

What 3-4 guys have similar odds? That’s not what the betting services are showing. Only Rome Odunze is close.
I'll tell you what they don't look like  
pjcas18 : 4/17/2024 3:26 pm : link
is these guys (minus Jacobs/Eli).

and this isn't the martinis talking - best Giants WR trio ever (and one great special teamer who played WR)
