2. WR Mecole Hardman

Mecole Hardman has blazing speed, elite athleticism, and a lot of untapped potential. Hardman has also stayed relatively healthy, playing in every game the first three seasons of his young career.

Hardman, who has a very similar playing style to Tyreek Hill, was due for a much larger role in 2023 because the Chiefs traded Hill to Miami, but he was limited to just eight games due to injuries. Hardman has 2,088 yards and 16 touchdowns in his career, and with more opportunity, his numbers will likely grow.

Hardman would add an explosive element to the Giants offense, something Big Blue has lacked since Odell Beckham Jr. was traded to Cleveland. His familiarity with Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka also makes Hardman an ideal fit. He’ll certainly be a name to watch over the next few days.
