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.

 Malik Nabers suffers ankle injury in practice
Rookie wideout expected to be focal point of offense
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Aug 11, 1:20 pm
|  | New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers left Sunday's practice because of an injury to his left ankle and did not return.
Nabers is believed to have suffered a minor ankle sprain, and the Giants were not overly concerned about the injury as of Sunday afternoon, sources told ESPN's Jordan Raanan. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take: It's been clear since early in camp that Nabers is going to be the focal point of the Giants offense. His ADP has slowly been rising throughout the summer. This injury doesn't sound serious at the moment, but we should get more updates on his status in the coming days.
