Make the Case: Options for Giants at No. 6?

NABERS-McCARTHY-MTC

"Make the Case" is officially back on Giants.com for the 2024 NFL Draft.

In this series, we look at projections provided by analysts and then ask you, the fans, to weigh in on what the Giants should do in the draft.

Next up is a debate between The Athletic's Dane Brugler and NFL Media's Charles Davis.

Pick: Malik Nabers, WR, LSU

Height: 6-foot-0 | Weight: 200

2023 Stats: 89 receptions for 1,569 yards (17.6 avg.) and 14 touchdowns. Led the nation in receiving yards per game (120.7), 20-plus yard plays (34) and 30-plus yard plays (17)

Accolades: Unanimous All-American (2023), First-Team All-SEC (2023)

"General manager Joe Schoen won't be able to hide his smile if Nabers is still available at No. 6. Regardless of who's playing quarterback for the Giants, this offense drastically needs a true X receiver who changes how defenses game plan against it. Nabers is that, and more."

Pick: J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan

Height: 6-foot-2 | Weight: 219

2023 Stats: 15 games, 2,991 passing yards, 72.3 completion percentage, 22 touchdowns, four interceptions, 202 rushing yards, three rushing touchdowns

Accolades: First-Team All-Big Ten (2023), CFP National Champion (2023), Griese-Brees Quarterback of the Year, Second-Team All-Big Ten (2022)

"In a slight surprise, the Giants grab McCarthy to eventually start over again at QB. He might very well sit behind Daniel Jones in 2024 before getting the ball in 2025."
