Fantasy Alert: Giants' Malik Nabers Will Be 'At Least' Non-QB OROY, Says NFL Insider

New York Giants rookie receiver Malik Nabers is projected to put up some major numbers this year, and fantasy football managers should take note.

Per The Athletic's Mike Sando, one panelist in a group of 50 NFL coaches and executives believes Nabers could be in the running to receive some hardware by the end of the season.

"I do think Malik Nabers is going to be Offensive Rookie of the Year, at least among non-quarterbacks," the voter said.

Nabers had a quiet preseason with four catches for 54 yards, but he's made numerous plays throughout training camp that have many believing he will be the No. 1 target of Giants quarterback Daniel Jones.

The LSU product made an impression on two-time All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner of the New York Jets during joint practices last week.

"He nice," Gardner said. "He's very sudden, when it comes to getting in and out of his breaks. ... He reminds me of an LSU receiver. A little Ja'Marr Chase. A little bit. A little Justin Jefferson. A little. Subtle. I'm not going to compare him to anybody because at the end of the day, he's Malik. ... He's going to be a pretty good player."

As New York's likely No. 1 receiver, Nabers should be in consideration to be selected early in fantasy football drafts this year. He could be a steal if he's still available in the third round or later.
