Malik Nabers: Elite Fantasy WR in 2025?

Giants WR Malik Nabers capped off the fantasy season with an incredible two-TD game. He caught seven of eight targets for 171 yards as the Giants beat the Colts. If the team upgrades the QB position, Nabers could be primed to become an elite fantasy WR in 2025 and will likely be drafted as such.

What They're Saying

Ralph Vacciano of Fox Sports: "So the Giants are going to win. The Raiders are going to win. And the Jaguars beat the Titans.

So the new Top 5 of the 2025 NFL Draft should be:

1.Patriots (3-13)
2.Titans (3-13)
3.Giants (3-13)
4.Browns (3-12 ... vs. Miami at 4:05 p.m.)
5.Jaguars (4-12)"

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

The Giants victory over the Colts did worsen their draft position from #1 overall to third. 

The Patriots, currently picking first, don't need a QB however.

Nabers getting a QB upgrade would be massive for his value as he has top-five fantasy WR potential in an offense that features him along with an accurate passer.

Dynasty Impact

Getting a rookie QB who could grow with Nabers would be ideal.

Currently Miami's Cam Ward and Colorado's Shedeur Sanders are the top potential QBs in the 2025 NFL Draft class.

Nabers showed that even with Drew Lock, he has the skill set to be elite when healthy.
