The sixth pick of the New York Giants’ 2022 draft class has become something of a forgotten man in the offensive conversation.
Few Giants fans knew Daniel Bellinger when he was selected in the fourth round (112th overall) out of San Diego State. He was expected to be, at best, a depth piece and blocking tight end in 12-personnel packages.
Instead, Bellinger emerged as an important piece as a rookie, starting 11 of 12 games his first year. Of course, that year was interrupted by an eye injury, but Bellinger picked up where he left off after returning.
