Third-round WR with contested-catch upside; could be Giants WR1 if Nabers doesn't return.
Third-round WR pick for the Giants with a skill set to be a contested-catch option for Jaxson Dart; could form a thunder-and-lightning combination with Malik Nabers and has enough upside to be the WR1 if Nabers cannot return from his ACL injury. Despite modest college production (5 TDs in each of last three years, never more than 811 yards), Fields showed good contact ability and size; positioned behind Nabers in a receiver room that includes aging veterans like Darius Slayton, Calvin Austin III, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Darnell Mooney, Odell Beckham Jr., and Isaiah Hodgins.
