New York Giants miss out on WR Malik Nabers in 2024 NFL re-draft
In a 2024 NFL re-draft, the New York Giants do not even have the option to select WR Malik Nabers.
In the 2024 NFL draft, the New York Giants were one of only six teams to choose a position other than quarterback in the first round. Following the draft, Sports Illustrated conducted a re-draft exercise and found that the Giants would have selected a different tight end, Brock Bowers, instead of Malik Nabers. Bowers, who was drafted 13th overall by the Las Vegas Raiders, broke the rookie receptions record with 112 catches in 2024, surpassing Nabers' total by three.
However, Nabers had an impressive October stretch and earned NFC Offensive Player of the Month honors. The re-draft scenario would have seen the Giants obtain McCarthy at pick 12 instead of the Vikings' 10th pick. With Bowers in the lineup, the Giants might not have signed Isaiah Likely and could have had a stronger roster this season. In conclusion, the New York Giants' decision to draft Malik Nabers proved to be the right choice.
