To be fair, the Giants need to hope that their changes on the offensive line lead to some serious improvement. However, the bigger concern could be at wide receiver with Odell Beckham Jr. getting traded away. Without Beckham, Shepard will have an even bigger role in the offense. People will be looking for him to take on the no. 1 receiver spot, so if things don’t go well, he’ll take the heat.

The addition of Golden Tate will help, but Shepard is younger and has shown enough promise to make people think he can help to fill Beckham’s shoes. Obviously, that’s asking a lot, but the Giants have no one else they can turn to in the passing game. That makes Shepard critical to their success this season.
