2. WR Kadarius Toney

In his rookie season a year ago, Kadarius Toney suffered an unfathomable seven injuries. His injury troubles started in rookie minicamp and carried over to training camp which he missed most of due to a hamstring injury. Toney suffered injuries to his hamstring, ankle, quad, abdomen and shoulder a season ago.

While there is no denying his electric ability with the ball in his hands, the Giants need to find a way to keep Toney on the field. Draftsharks appears to have little faith in him staying healthy, projecting Toney to miss 4.4 games next season, while having just a 15 percent chance to stay healthy all year.

It is hard to believe Toney could be as be as banged up as he was a season ago and, with Judge’s overly rigorous physical practices going out the window, it is likely there will be less injuries this season. With Shepard and Golladay both having significant track records of injuries, it’s pivotal that Toney stays healthy.
