The New York Giants’ main priority this offseason is to find themselves both a short-term and long-term solution at quarterback.
Their other priority is to find that quarterback some more weapons to work with. Offensive lineman Jermaine Eluemunor has one particular wide receiver in mind in the upcoming NFL draft — Iowa State’s Jayden Higgins.

The Giants have Rookie of the Year candidate Malik Nabers and chain mover Wan’Dale Robinson already in the fold but could use that big, imposing receiver who can line up anywhere and make plays.
Enter the 6-foot-4, 217-pound Higgins appears to have it all. The Bleacher Report Scouting Department listed the following positives:
-
High football IQ; can play all three wide receiver positions.
-
Soft and reliable hands, rarely drops passes.
-
Grass finder against zone coverages, identifies weak points in coverage.
-
Winning contested catches with body position, late hands, and ball tracking.
Higgins’ production in college rose every year. Last season, he caught 87 passes for 1,183 yards and nine touchdowns.
A senior finance major who is no relation to Tee Higgins of the Cincinnati Bengals, Higgins is currently being projected as a Day 2 pick in the draft, but that can all change if Higgins continues to shine this week and beyond.
