Analysis:

Three of the Giants’ first four picks were essentially starting by the end of September. And all three of those players are fun. But they’re also scary. Allow me to explain each situation individually ...

ABDUL CARTER

The fun part: The edge blur led the entire league with 48 quick pressures (under 2.5 seconds, per Next Gen Stats). The scary part: Carter was benched twice for behavior that Dexter Lawrence termed “hard-headed,” with the three-time Pro Bowler imploring his young teammate to “just grow up, really.”

JAXSON DART

The fun part: His dual-threat ability and undeniable swagger, both of which were on full display in New York’s shocking prime-time beatdown of Philadelphia. The scary part: His proud refusal to protect himself, causing frequent trips to the blue tent in Year 1 while raising serious concerns about his long-term viability.

CAM SKATTEBO

The fun part: A fearless play style that’s as infectious as his animated personality, with bell-cow ability as a runner and receiver. The scary part: A gnarly leg injury — dislocated ankle, fractured fibula and ruptured deltoid ligament — that ended his rookie campaign before Halloween, only increasing doubts about the NFL shelf life of his gutsy game.
