2021 NFL Draft prospect profile - Nico Collins (WR, Michigan)
Tim Fuller-USA TODAY Sports Could Nico Collins be a Day 2 steal? The previous two drafts have seen a pair of exceptional wide receiver classes. Not only were there excellent receivers at the top of the class, but remarkable depth throughout the draft. The New York Giants had largely bypassed those two draft classes but might not be able to avoid drafting a receiver in the 2021 NFL Draft. The Giants clearly need a true “number one” receiver who can man the “X” position on the line of scrimmage on a play-in, play-out basis. However there are potential scenarios...

2021 NFL Draft prospect profile: Ben Cleveland, OG, Georgia
Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports Could Ben Cleveland be the Giants’ new right guard? The New York Giants could find themselves in need of a new right guard in 2021. They rotated a pair of guards, at the left guard spot but relied on veteran Kevin Zeitler at the right guard position. But while Zeitler’s play doesn’t give the Giants reason to move on, his contract might. Zeitler is the third-highest paid player on the Giants’ roster and the fourth-highest paid guard in the NFL. With the salary cap set to drop, Zeitler could become a cap casualty, opening a hole at...
