The Giants selected Engram in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft, 23rd overall.
Tight end was a need for the Giants, and they get one here who can really run. Engram is small for a tight end at 6-foot-3, 234 pounds, but you can get over it when you note his 4.42-second 40-yard dash, 36-inch vertical, 125-inch broad jump and 6.92-second three-cone. Indeed, even if you compare his athletic metrics to wide receivers, Engram grades among the absolute best at that position. Brandon Marshall's addition to the Giants means there are likely fewer tight end targets up for grabs this year, but Engram can't be ruled out as a 2017 impact player if he can displace Will Tye. An impact in 2018 and beyond is generally the better bet for a rookie tight end, however.
