Kadarius Toney was selected by the New York Giants with the No. 20 pick in the 2021 NFL draft. He’ll offer a Percy Harvin-like complement to Kenny Golladay as the Giants continue to build around Daniel Jones.
The Giants receiving corps struggled in 2020. Sterling Shepard missed four games and was little more than an underneath threat. Darius Slayton led the team with 751 receiving yards and reprised his role as the deep threat, yet caught barely 50% of his targets. No one found the end zone with any regularity.
New York began to rehabilitate their passing offense with the signing of the underrated Kenny Golladay. He and Jones offered early drafters an excellent value in best ball, but does that change now that they’ve added a first-round WR?
I explain the extreme risk with Toney but also a strategy for aggressive dynasty owners to make a big profit on the Florida star.
