With RB Ahmad Bradshaw sidelined by a minor hand injury, RB David Wilson drew the start in the Giants' preseason game against the Bears on Friday night. Simply put, the rookie was electrifying. He broke off runs of 20 and 15 yards and took a catch for 29. Wilson finished with 5 carries for 49 yards and 2 catches for 26 yards. He displayed big-time burst and impressive balance. While Bradshaw will open the season as the lead back, the Giants are going to get Wilson on the field. And he's plenty capable of pushing Bradshaw more lead back duties over the course of the season. The rookie is worth targeting as an upside RB3. We just updated our projections for the Giants' backfield.
