NFL Draft 2017: 10 Biggest Hits From First Round
By Jordan Luth
Tight End. New York Giants. Evan Engram. 8. player. 31.
Engram joins what is possibly the best receiving corps in the NFL. He will now be lining up next to Odell Beckham Jr., Brandon Marshall, and Sterling Shepard.
Engram is true receiving tight end who is huge. At 6’3 and 284 pounds, Engram is listed at tight end but plays like a massive wide receiver who can stretch the field.. This just gives Eli Manning another weapon, and with weak secondaries in Dallas and even in Philadelphia, Engram could have a big impact early.
Teams will look to take away Beckham and Marshall and Engram will be the guy Manning goes to. If he can develop into a better blocking tight end, he could become a huge asset for the Giants. He could end up running over some weaker secondaries in his first year.
