The New York Giants selected Kentucky wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson with the 43rd overall pick in this year’s NFL draft. Many felt they would seek to add a playmaker in this draft but few (if any) predicted they would take Robinson and even fewer had him pegged to go in the second round.
The Giants want to surround quarterback Daniel Jones with as many playmakers as they can as he enters a ‘prove-it’ season.
Robinson is a dynamic player, a ‘jack-of-all-trades’ so to speak, and there are doubts about his size (5’8″, 178) and his ability to lift up a receiving corps that contains an underachieving Kenny Golladay, the inconsistent rookie Kadarius Toney and oft-injured veteran Sterling Shepard.
