John Harbaugh is putting the finishing touches on his New York Giants coaching staff, naming Matt Nagy as offensive coordinator and bringing in Greg Roman for an offensive role. With the coaching vacancies largely filled, the club must now make a decision on wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson.

ESPN‘s Jordan Raanan believes that Robinson “seems likely” to be re-signed by the Giants this offseason. One key reason for that is because New York’s general manager Joe Schoen drafted him and the young wideout has always been one of Schoen’s favorites.

Robinson, who turned 25 in January, is coming off a breakthrough season. The 5-foot-8 wideout recorded his first 1,000-yard campaign, setting career highs in targets, receptions, receiving yards, yards per reception, touchdowns, and first downs.

He proved essential to the Giants’ offense following the season-ending injury to Malik Nabers. From Week 6 through Week 17, Robinson averaged 6.3 receptions and 67.9 receiving yards per game—a 17-game pace of 106 receptions and nearly 1,200 receiving yards.

With Nabers unsure of when he will return from ACL surgery and the team planning to take a cautious approach with its star pass-catcher, there is even more incentive for New York to re-sign Robinson. Furthermore, Harbaugh’s tenure with the Baltimore Ravens and Nagy’s history as a play-caller highlight the importance of having a well-rounded receiving corps.

As for what it might cost to bring Robinson back, Spotrac estimates his market value will be $17.6 million this offseason. Considering New York’s starting quarterback, running back, and top receiver are all on rookie-scale contracts, that is a price the Giants can afford to pay.
