Wide Receiver Rank: #67 Overall: #210
Nicks should be a good replacement for the departed Plaxico Burress. He is a similar receiver to Burress. Nicks is a big target with great hands and athletic ability. He isn't quite as tall as Burress, but has long arms and good strength. His only knock might be his speed, which is solid but not off the charts. Nicks has a chance to step into a starting role right away for the Giants, who have a run-heavy offense but still like to keep offenses honest with their passing game.

| Nicks has as much potential as any rookie receiver. He could be the Giants top option in the passing game his rookie season, giving him 1,000-yard potential. And he is a good red-zone target, giving him good TD potential. Take him as a No. 3 receiver, but don't be surprise if he plays more like a No. 2. |
