Giants WR Mario Manningham Shines at Rookie Minicamp
The AP reports, “On the field with the New York Giants for the first time Friday, the troubled third-round draft pick from Michigan showed flashes of why he might have been one of the biggest steals in the NFL draft.” Full story here.
Monster Take: Manningham displayed confidence and athletic ability in his debut at minicamp. Concerns about failed drug tests while in college at Michigan will dog him for a while until he proves he can keep his act together in the NFL. WR’s typically don’t make a huge splash in their rookie seasons, so we would view Manningham as a potential late round sleeper until we see more.
