Jalin Hyatt

As a rookie, Hyatt had two great games. He had 89 yards in Week 2 and 109 yards in Week 12. As a player with excellent speed who can win downfield, those games weren’t a surprise. Otherwise, it should be noted that the Giants used three quarterbacks while also having one of the worst offensive lines in the league. Also, Darius Slayton played a similar role to Hyatt, but Slayton was more consistent. Those factors didn’t help Hyatt. Aside from the big games, the receiver had 10 or fewer yards in 10 games. Based on what we saw last year, projecting Hyatt to be a difference maker in 2024 may be a stretch.

Hyatt landed in an interesting situation when the Giants traded up to take him in the third round of this year's draft. On one hand, New York isn't exactly loaded with blue-chip wideouts -- Isaiah Hodgins, Darius Slayton and Parris Campbell appear to be the team's top options heading into camp. On the other hand, the team already has a young receiver who operates primarily out of the slot (as Hyatt did in college) in 2022 second-rounder Wan'Dale Robinson, and returning veteran Sterling Shepard also can play that role. That said, Hyatt is the most explosive playmaker of the bunch, running a 4.40 40 at 6-0, 176, so the Tennessee product could see plenty of targets as the vertical threat quarterback Daniel Jones sorely lacked last season.
