Giants WR Malik Nabers drew 18 targets on 28 Daniel Jones pass attempts in the Week 2 loss to the Commanders. That's a massive 64.3% target share. The rookie turned that volume into 10 catches, 127 yards, and his first career TD. Nabers was running free against a bad Washington secondary all game long, and Jones was accurate for the most part. Nabers did have a bad drop on fourth down late in the fourth quarter that potentially cost the Giants the game. But fantasy owners have nothing to complain about after this big game.
Nabers is up to 25 targets and a 35.7% target share through his first two career games. He won't maintain that pace -- but Nabers could threaten a 30% target share. His competition for looks is weak, and HC Brian Daboll is doing a nice job scheming the rookie open.
QB Daniel Jones remains the biggest risk factor for Nabers going forward. But if he can get just decent QB play, Nabers could push for a WR1 finish this year.
He gets a tough Week 3 draw against the Browns, but Nabers' strong target projection will keep him inside the top-20 WRs. That's followed by a matchup with a Cowboys defense that just got smoked for 44 points by the Saints.
