ESPN's Ryan Clark gives Malik Nabers the nod, says he could have 'immediate impact'

The sixth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, former LSU wideout Malik Nabers was selected by the New York Giants.

New York, who has been in desperate need for offensive superstars for many years but especially with the departure of running back Saquon Barkley, is a great fit for Nabers.

Most rookie receivers in the NFL aren't expected to produce that high of numbers, barring stars like Odell Beckham Jr. and Garrett Wilson.

However, many analysts are pointing to Nabers to break that mold and put up big numbers for the Giants during his first year in the league.

Most recently, ESPN's Ryan Clark said he believes that Nabers could have an "immediate impact" on the Giants offensive roster.

Clark played in the NFL for 13 seasons as a free safety, including eight years with Pittsburgh as well as his first two years in the league with the Giants.

And yes, Clark is a fellow LSU Tiger.

Nabers' new teammates have spoken highly of the rookie as well.

Darius Slayton, a wide receiver who is heading into his sixth season with New York, said that Nabers reminds him of elite NFL receiver Ja'Marr Chase.

In college, Nabers earned 21 receiving touchdowns on 3,003 yards through the air. He also had a passing touchdown in 2022 as well as 29 total rushing yards.
