3) Hakeem Nicks

Years: 2009-2013

Legacy: Super Bowl Champion (XLVI)

Injuries derailed his career – but at his peak, Hakeem Nicks was one of the most dangerous receivers in the entire league.

While he continually balled out in his career, his greatest run came at the biggest time – the 2011 NFL playoffs. Nicks was unstoppable – hauling in 28 receptions for 444 yards and four touchdowns in four games.

He worked his way up to ninth on the Giants’ All-Time receiving yards list, but he could’ve been much higher had he remained healthy. Still, Nicks’ place in team history was etched – and he’ll always be looked back upon fondly.
