ESPN is halfway through unveiling its 2013 NFL Player Rankings, and two Giants were listed in the 50s – one offense and one defense. The media outlet polled 63 experts to rate each player on a 0-to-10 scale to come up with the top 100 players on each side of the ball (100 offense and 100 defense).
Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks ranked No. 56 offensively in the NFL, and defensive end Justin Tuck came in at No. 52:
