Summary

Running Back Rank: #20All Players: #45

The Giants found their new No. 2 back in the draft, taking Wilson with their first pick in the draft. He'll be the top backup to oft-injured Ahmad Bradshaw. Wilson is an explosive back. He has electric speed and great moves in space. He also is a top receiver out of the backfield, making him an ideal third-down back. He isn't a great inside runner, though, and lacks some patience, which will need to get better if he wants to be a No. 1 back in the NFL.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Wilson has some value his rookie season. The Giants will get him some playing time, especially if you consider how they have used backs in the past. It wouldn't surprise to see Wilson get around 1,000 total yards and six touchdowns his rookie season. He has value as a No. 3 or 4 back for fantasy teams. He could have even more value in the coming years, though.

'With his expanded role (in the offense), we'll see where it leads,' Quinn said. 'He said he'd like to do both, but it all depends on the game and his carries and what his role is in the offense.'

So those are going to be assets he needs right down the stretch here,' Coughlin said.
