Hakeem Nicks has gigantic hands
He said they measured over 10 inches at the scouting combine, which is believed to be the biggest of any receiver in this year's draft. It's obviously a big advantage for the first-round receiver.
"I catch great with my hands," Nicks said. "You won't see me making many body catches."
Nicks wears size 4XL gloves, and had a tough time locating a pair that fit him.
As for the NFL receiver Nicks respects the most: It's Carolina's Steve Smith.
"I've watched him a lot growing up," Nicks says. "He's not a big guy, but he's got heart."
Smith called Nicks shortly after the draft and offered him some advice as he begins his NFL career.
"He just said go after it," Nicks said. "Just play the game the way you know how."

Nicks looks like a player. If everyone stays healthy the Giants will have a talented group at WR.
Does Newsday still have a crime beat reporter? Curious if anyone is hearing the courthouse whispers re Plax? Once upon a time the Gambino specialist would have bought friendly court officers a couple pops and he'd come away with a scoop. Wally strikes me as a guy who knows his way around a bar, maybe this is his calling.
Tough part for Plax on a plea with jail time, it is likely to be served at Rikers. Better to do 60 days upstate than spend a week on Rikers.
Big hands? great.....
Are you trolling Lohan, Hilton and Spears for him?

Hello everyone. Never eat more than you can lift. Help me! Help to find sites on the: Hand held vacuum cleaners. I found only this - vacuum cleaner brush. So, buying something like a vacuum cleaner will surely need a lot of pondering. The vacuum cleaner should not have a complicated switch system and should be easy to use, access and handle. :cool: Thanks in advance. Jock from Mali.
