Nabers ranked WR20 Week 1; elite target share and efficiency metrics support WR1 upside.

Nabers is ranked as WR20 in Week 1 expert consensus rankings. Last year before his torn ACL with subsequent meniscus damage, he was the WR9 in fantasy points per game. In Weeks 1-3 of last season, he drew a 26.4% target share with 83.7 receiving yards per game, 2.15 yards per route run, and a 41.5% first-read share—all elite WR1 per-game numbers. Derek Brown notes that if Nabers is even 80% of his normal performance, he expects him to be the clear target hog for the Giants in Week 1.
