00:00Now, let's go to the Giants, because a lot of people feel that the Giants did an interesting
00:11job with their draft, but I'd love to hear from you, especially with this pick.
00:15Yeah, Malik Nabors, I think, was the right pick for the Giants.
00:18Their wide receiver cupboard was barren.
00:20I mean, there was nothing in there.
00:22He's currently listed as wide receiver 25, which I think is actually a little bit aggressive.
00:27But if you look at these projections, it makes sense, because, like Harrison, he's
00:30getting dropped into a role where he is the true number one.
00:32The problem is, there's not a lot to support him, and Daniel Jones hasn't been a prolific
00:37thrower in the football.
00:38Like, Kyler Murray with DeAndre Hopkins was pretty good.
00:42We saw that, like, if you give him the tools, he's going to be okay.
00:46With Daniel Jones, I think it's a little bit of uncertainty here.
00:48Now, theoretically, it should be good.
00:50These projections have him at 73 receptions, 1,000 yards, five touchdowns.
00:54Okay, that's a good, steady projection, I think, for him, where you could feel pretty
00:58good about it.
01:00I think the drafting over Zay Flowers or Keenan Allen, I think, is risky.
01:07Christian Kirk is another guy, too.
01:09I think he's going to get a ton of targets.
01:10I think he's a safer investment.
01:12So we'll see over time.
01:14Because he plays for the Giants in a big media spot, I think people might start to overdraft
01:18Malik Nabors, especially on East Coast drafts that are happening in the tri-state area.
01:23But I think if you let him go when he's going too expensive, I think the pivot to the Kirks
01:28and the Keenan Allens of the world is probably a good pivot.
01:30But in the other spots where people want to take the veteran ahead and Malik Nabors falls,
01:34that's okay, too.
01:35I think a lot of this is contextual.
01:36It's where you can get him.
01:37And the cheaper you get Malik Nabors, I think the happier you're going to be with the results
01:41in 2024.
