This will be one of the top-five or so camp battles to watch for fantasy. Manningham held off Nicks for most of last season, but it wasn't deserved. Mario tied for the league lead in drops, and Nicks was superior as a blocker, after-catch threat, and in yards per reception. Lacking physicality in his game, Manningham's best fit is as a situational deep threat off the bench.
