Could Jeff Caldwell Be the Hidden Gem the NY Giants Need in the 2026 Draft?
Each of Caldwell’s weaknesses are easily traced back to poor technique. He has always been the biggest, strongest, fastest, and most explosive athlete on the field, and that has always been enough.
However, he will need to put in real work to hone his craft as a technician if he wants to reach his ceiling as a wide receiver.
As things stand now, Caldwell is sloppy in his execution. He trusts his size and explosiveness to beat tight or press-man coverage, which can lead to the timing of routes being disrupted early in the play. And even when he releases cleanly, there’s no hint of route savvy or misdirection in his route-running. He doesn’t (yet) show an understanding of how to tempo or manipulate his route stems to create opportunities for separation down the field.
And while Caldwell runs a relatively varied route tree, his routes are unrefined and imprecise. His breaks tend to be rounded, despite his surprising twitch and agility, which can make it easy for defenders to stay with him through his routes despite his elite athleticism.
