The NY Giants just might have found the big-bodied WR they’re looking for

The NY Giants have a solid group of skill position players, but the group is sorely lacking a bigger target; could the team have already found one in camp?

It’s been well discussed on this platform already that the NY Giants’ offenses biggest hole when it comes to its WR group is in the size department.

Right now, there isn’t a wideout taller than 6’1” in the starting trio of receivers and two of the three of them are well under 6 feet tall. While Daniel Jones shouldn’t have much of a problem matriculating the ball down the field with his current ensemble of skill guys, the cherry on top would be Big Blue finding a bigger wideout that can make a difference in the red zone.

When primary special teamer Cody Core went down with a torn Achilles earlier in training camp it further opened the door for the NY Giants to give an opportunity to one of their younger, bigger receivers.

From the beginning, the two players I’ve been the highest on are David Sills V who is in his second year out of West Virginia and Binjimen Victor who is a rookie out of Ohio State.

Both wideouts stand 6’4” tall and have shown the ability to rack up touchdowns in college. New offensive coordinator Jason Garrett always favored taller recievers in Dallas so you can bet he’s going to make sure at least one of these giants (pun intended) makes the final roster.

Both players have performed well at camp and Sills V especially stood out during the team’s first intrasquad scrimmage last Friday.

Sills V was a converterd quarterback that ended up making his mark as one of the most prolific wideouts in all of college football when he transferred back to West Virginia after his failed bid to win the QB job as a freshman.

His college career saw him amass 35 TD’s in two seasons – including leading the entire nation once – so his acumen when it comes to reeling in touchdowns – especially in 1-1 situations – is almost unparrelled at the college level.

Former Ohio State Buckeye Binjimen Victor has also made some noise at camp, showing he can be that 1-1 red zone threat that the team so direly needs. Even though he played in a spread offense at Ohio State that routinely saw the offense line up in 4 or even 5 WR sets, Victor ended his OSU career in the top-ten all-time in touchdowns.

You don’t have to watch further than the first 10 seconds of the above video to understand the element Victor brings to the NY Giants.

While no one is arguing that Big Blue’s skill position group as a whole is a bad one, it surely is lacking size on the boundary.

From what we’ve seen so far in camp, David Sills V, Binjimen Victor, or possibly now even both with the Cody Core injury will attempt to solve that problem for the offense.
