LAKE BUENA VISTA, FL - FEBRUARY 6: In this handout image provided by Disney Parks, Super Bowl XLVI MVP and New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning throws a pass to a fan during a celebratory ride with Mickey Mouse on February 6, 2012 at the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. The celebration at the theme park took place only one day after Manning led his team to a 21-17 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis. Immediately following the game, Manning looked into TV cameras and shouted "I'm Going to Disney World!" He is the latest star in the famous Disney commercial series.

96 Giants Defeat Patriots Again in Super Bowl XLVI, 21-17

by Chris Pokorny from Dawgs By Nature on Feb 5, 2012 10:28 PM EST

We didn't know if we'd even have a football season this year as the NFL lockout dominated the offseason a little under a year ago. Today, the lockout is a distant thought as the New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI by a final score of 21-17.

Scouting Report

Assets

Great possession receiver with sneaky-good speed. Runs excellent option routes because he reads the defense and knows how to get open. Great hands. A fine blocker and return man.

Flaws

Lacks elite speed though he surprises the secondary more often than not. Much of his production is the result of facing nickel defenders and linebackers in a wide-open scheme.

Career Potential

Pro Bowl wideout.
