Honestly don't know what you mean by "that's really hard to justify . . ." I 'm not justifying anything; literally just telling at it was spoken by Veach, Andy, Clark Hunt and Kadarius himself, in televised pressers. That was always the plan, according to those that make those kinds of decisions, but it fell through when NYG picked him up at 20.

The Giants actually traded down, they had the 11th pick, but traded down to the 20th pick with the Bears. But if the Giants didn’t take Toney with the 20th pick, the Jaguars would have taken him at 25.
Regarding Skyy Moore, since he actually never played wide receiver until his freshman year in college (he was recruited as a cornerback but was switched to WR), it’s easily understandable if it takes him a little more time to excel at the NFL level.
