2020 NFL Draft prospect profile: James Proche, WR, SMU
Vasha Hunt-USA TODAY Sports SMU’s James Proche plays bigger than he measures - Will that endear him to the Giants? Just how set are the New York Giants at the receiver positions. We should be able to expect that Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton will be Giants for the long haul, with Slayton just being drafted last year and Shepard signing his contract extension. But what about the rest of the depth chart? Golden Tate could be a cap casualty next year, or potentially even this year, and the rest of the depth chart could be lost to free agency. And there probably should be questions...

2020 NFL Draft prospect profile: Gabriel Davis, WR, UCF
Reinhold Matay-USA TODAY Sports Is Gabriel Davis a potential number one receiver for the Giants? The class of wide receivers in the 2020 NFL Draft promises to be a strong one. That’s good news for the New York Giants, who have an understated need at the wide receiver position. Darius Slayton emerged as a bright spot over the course of the 2019 season, but there have to be questions after Sterling Shepard lost a significant chunk of the seasons due to concussions. We don’t know how much longer Golden Tate (who is over 30 and is in his last year of guaranteed money) will be on the...

The Senior Bowl has figured heavily in the New York Giants drafts over the years, with Justin Pugh, Weston Richburg, Sterling Shepard, Davis Webb,...

2020 NFL Draft prospect profile: Michael Pittman Jr, WR, USC
Richard Mackson-USA TODAY Sports Could Pittman Jr. be the receiver the Giants are missing? Once considered a strength of the team, the New York Giants’ wide receiving depth chart has worn thin. There are questions regarding Sterling Shepard and his long-term health, Golden Tate will be 32 at the start of the season and entering the last year of his guaranteed money. Corey Coleman, Cody Latimer, Russell Shepard, and Cody Core are all free agents. Darius Slayton emerged as a bright spot on the Giants’ offense, but they need more good, reliable pass catchers to build with for 2020 and...

2020 NFL Draft prospect profile: Van Jefferson, WR, Florida
Vasha Hunt-USA TODAY Sports Jefferson is smart and polished, will that give him an edge at the NFL level? The New York Giants struggled at the receiver position in 2019, and the position doesn’t look much better for 2020 and beyond. Not only do the Giants need to find a true “Number One” receiver to run Jason Garrett’s offense, but they also need to rebuild their depth chart behind Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton. Florida’s Van Jefferson isn’t likely to fill the role of a “number one” receiver, but he is an experienced and reliable receiver who can play out of...
