New York Giants First-Round Selection: WR Malik Nabers - ( New Window )
Despite  
darren in pdx : 4/25/2024 11:48 pm : link
my own pessimism on the overall state of the team, he should be a great player and was a good pick at one of the biggest positions of need. Filling the holes at #1 WR and EDGE this offseason are great for the team moving forward. Still a lot more to go along with the most important position on the team.

I wanted a QB, but I was going to be upset over missing the WR too.

Our WR room changed overnight with this pick. Can't wait to see Nabers, Hyatt, Robinson, Slayton, and McKenzie together.

It's ok to feel mixed emotions

I very, very strongly believe Nabers is the best WR from the class. I am also enormously disappointed that we didn't leave the first round with a QB.

I'd rather swing on a position that can move the needle utterly disproportionately to all others. But in lieu of that, I feel we came away with the best non QB in the draft.

I'm kicking myself for not predicting Nabers, but I got caught up in the QB hysteria. But I kept getting updates on Nabers throughout the season on my feed... I felt like someone was trying to tell me something. :)
The Way Nabers Runs After the Catch

reminds me of Hakeem Nicks.

He's way, way, way better than Nicks after the catch. No comparison. He's more like Beckham.

He means the tenacity with which he runs after the catch like a running back as Nicks did I think, which is valid. He has a combination of the best traits from many great receivers I think. The fact that they had a trade up offer and didn't bite makes me feel like they were really in love with Nabers and they didn't have 1st round grades on QBs 4-6.

Agree. He does remind me a lot of Beckham. His head fakes and stutter steps are a lot like Beckham, just nasty.
He’s Jamarr Chase 2.0

We needed this... So happy we didnt get jumped. Odunze would have been a nice consolation but this is the guy.

So far '24 draft.. Nabors WR, Burns DE

This is how I feel this morning. Went to bed angry, but woke up with mixed emotions. Love the player, I’m concerned about the direction of the franchise. As usual.

+1
Nabers can be every bit as good as Odell  
PHX Giants Fan : 4/26/2024 11:04 am : link
How will he impact this team?

2014 6-10, 3rd in NFCE
2015 6-10, 3rd in NFCE
2016 11-5, 2nd in NFCE, Wildcard loss (and a boat)
2017 3-13, 4th in NFCE
2018 5-11, 4th in NFCE

Nabers was undoubtedly BPA at six, so I get the pick. Hopefully, he will impact the W/L record more than Odell did.
