You can not make your neck larger but you can make your traps larger which will make your neck and jaw line look larger and more masculine.
The best exercise for traps is shrugs. I like to use DB shrugs because you have the best range of motion and get a really good stretch at the bottom of the movement.
I would add shrugs into every shoulder and back workout you do. The traps respond best to high reps. I would do 4-5 work sets with around 20 repetitions.

I diagree. The neck if composed of the same muscle tissue that's in your arms. Large muscles like the sterno-mastoid can be made larger (I've done it). The problem is thick neck girths, whether muscle or fat, are linked to sleep apnea (I have it). You're then stuck having to sleep hooked up to a machine for the rest of your life.
Make sure you are doing your heavy deadlifts and work traps more directly with heavy shrugs.
Shrugs will definitely help with the muscles surrounding your neck.
However what some people do (especially rugby and football players) is that they give direct tension to the neck muscles.
1. Take a towel and hold each side of it in your hands
2. Place the towel on the back of your head
3. Lean down with your head and try to push it back up, by giving resistance with the towel you are holding
You can incorporate this once in a while to strengthen your neck. But doubt that you really need it that bad.

A 3 way neck machine always works. Grew my neck thick as f in college football. Else the sell head sets with an attached chain(old school) to attach weights. Similar to a dip belt. Or as J Scott mentioned, a towel and a partner also works. Or a towel folded on the head with a weight on it works to an extent.
