He can go up and catch balls in traffic. The trend is towards larger
receivers as CB's get smaller and faster. If they try putting a safety on
him he is strong enough to get off the line. I see nothing wrong with the pick
at all. They wanted a Burress type. The got the body type that can
develop into one. Who were you looking for?

Hilarious. Hakeem Nicks, 6'1" 212 lbs. Plaxico Burress, 6'5" 232 lbs. Yeah, same player. I wasn't looking for anyone, I'm not a Giant fan, but Nicks is the best player in this draft? He's the definition of a possession receiver. That's not what Burress was. Burress was a dominant player.
