Wide Receiver Rank: #26 Overall: #79
Nicks took a huge step forward last season, emerging as one of the top receivers in the game. He even missed some time because of Compartment Syndrome in his lower right leg (shouldn't be an issue going forward). Even with missing three games, Nicks had his first 1,000-yard season as a pro and scored 11 touchdowns. He had four 100-yard games and 79 receptions. Nicks was the top target in the Giants' passing attack, a role he should continue serving for years to come. Nicks has the makeup of an elite receiver. He is a big target with great hands and athletic ability. Nicks is a top big-play threat because of his speed and size.

Nicks is the complete package. Consider him an elite fantasy receiver. Another 1,000-yard season and double-digit scores is very likely. His numbers are only going to improve, especially if he can stay healthy. Nicks is worth taking among the first 10 fantasy receivers in 2011. |
