Position Preview: Giants wide receiver spot is all about Odell Beckham

Last season, wide receivers named Tavaress King, Travis Rudolph, Hunter Sharp, Darius Powe, Marquis Bundy, Kalif Raymond and Ed Eagan caught a combined 36 passes, four for touchdowns, for the New York Giants in 79 targets. That’s a 45.6 percent completion rate.

You want to identify reasons why the offense wasn’t very good last season, that’s a big one.

Beckham, thanks to a preseason ankle injury and a season-ending fractured ankle, was far behind the 158 targets he had in 2015 and the 169 targets that went his way in 2016.
