The 2023 Giants' offense lacked significant firepower in the passing game, which led to their prioritization of adding a big-time pass catcher in the draft. They landed an impressive prospect in Malik Nabers, who, if not for the generational talent Marvin Harrison Jr., would've almost certainly been the top prospect at the position in this and almost any other class.
Nabers is a well-rounded wide receiver who brings tremendous speed and overall athleticism to a New York offense that sorely lacks such players. Barring injury, Nabers should immediately step in as the top target earner in what is admittedly a struggling offense. Nevertheless, even with presumed poor quarterback play, a high target share could allow Nabers to be a strong weekly fantasy asset from the outset.
Nabers won't come cheap on draft day, but he's being selected as a low-end WR2 or high-end WR3 in most leagues, which is fairly close to his floor. If he and Daniel Jones can create a connection that allows him to get into the end zone with any frequency, there's no reason to believe he can't meet or even exceed the lofty expectations many have for him this season.

Giants sign Russell Wilson to one-year deal
Expected to be the starter over Jameis Winston
By: Mike Krueger | Tue Mar 25, 6:51 pm
|  | The New York Giants reached agreement with Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson on a one-year deal worth up to $21 million, including $10.5 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday. Wilson is returning as the Giants' projected starting quarterback.
(ESPN)
FFToday's Take: The Giants already signed Jameis Winston a few days ago but all signs point to Wilson being the starter. Wilson struggled to maintain fantasy relevance in Pittsburgh last season, ranking as the QB15 on a weekly basis in half-ppr leagues. This move isn't helping the value of wideout Malik Nabers although Nabers did manage a low-end WR1 season with subpar quarterback play. The Giants have the 3rd pick in the upcoming draft and still need to address their long-term quarterback problem.
