Jul 14, 2016 at 6:18 comment added Jean Raimbault If you want estimates on the degree you can get a quantitative version of this using the proof of finite residuality. Namely, $\pi_1 N$ embeds in $SL(2,R)$ for some finitely generated integral domain $R$ (in this case it can be taken to be a ring of $S$-integers for some finite ser $S$). Then taking the covers corresponding to the morphisms $\pi_1 N \to SL_2(R/nR)$ for non-invertible integers $n \in R$ you get a sequence of manifolds with injectivity radius $\ge \epsilon \log n$ (the volume is of order some power of $n$).
