While I want a QB, I would also be happy with a trade down. For example, the Bills trade their two first round picks to the Broncos for the 5th pick. The Bills then trade the 5th pick and two subsequent first rounders to the Giants for the second pick (similar to the RG3 trade). With the fifth pick, the Giants would be in position to take Chubb or Nelson and would be set up with two first rounders in the next two drafts.

I agreed with your assessment at the time.  I was highly suspicious of Sean Peyton's motives.  It's not like him to trash a QB class -- and so he did for a reason -- he wants one of them.

Agreed. It’s a good class

Problem is you potentially have a great RB there too. Interesting to see the name called tonight

The only spot IMO to trade back to is 5 with Denver. If Browns truly go with Mayfield all reports say Elway's 2 guys are Mayfield and Darnold. Trade the 2nd pick for the 5th pick plus Denver's 2nd, one of their 3rd's one of their 4th's and a future 1st. Giants then get to pick from the 2 guys left over from Barkley/Chubb/Nelson that Cleveland takes with the 4th. That's the only spot i'm comfortable with trade back to since it still lands us one of the best talents in the draft while collecting some big time draft capital.

Is there a legit source for this or is it just another one out of the thousand draft rumors going on today? What makes this rumor more believable than the others? It’s funny how when you hear a rumor that you agree with, it all of a sudden becomes true.

Just have to wonder how plausible this scenario is:

Browns choose someone other than Darnold # 1 overall. If Giants really dont want Darnold, they then threaten the Jets that they will trade with Buffalo. Jets trade Giants their 3rd round pick to swap with Giants and keep Bills from stealing the QB they crave. Giants walk away with additional high 3rd rounder for nothing...

Watching the red carpet stuff but haven't seen Sequen Barkley. I may have missed it. A couple of observations. Michael Irvin sucks at what he does. Melissa Starks too much make-up, trying to hide her age. She just tried to talk to one of the little kids on the red carpet and the little kid didn't answer her back. NFL Network really stinks at programming.

The big issue concerning the pre-draft stuff is Sequen Barkley's father. Did his probation officer allow him to travel to Dallas. Were the Dallas police notified? Did the NFL hire more security due to his presence?  I'm waiting to see if Sequen Barkley's father is there.

Bummer, I see Josh Allen, and his parents, but his hot girlfriend isn't with him on the red carpet.  Josh Allen is a likeable fellow.  If the Giants take him at 2, I would be so happy.

Wow! Baker Mayfield is the first pick. That leaves us Darnold! C'mon Gettleman don't get cute!

jdub19: @blu4everli Are you being serious in your contention that the Giants should have drafted Becton over Thomas or are you just trolling? Asking for a friend... Mar 25, 2024 0:39:26 GMT -5
sufferinggmenfan: your telling me, we sucked last year and now we will suck even more. 2 crappy oline men added is all we have to show for letting the best safety and a top RB walk. Saquon will rush for 1500 yard behind a real line. Sickening how bad year after year we are. Mar 11, 2024 18:24:05 GMT -5

56801steve: the WR Wilson looks like a total stud and A.Lucas is better than Neal.

The Giants could have walked away with both of them, Wilson in round 1 (instead of Neal) and Lucas in round 3.

That would have been awesome drafting but Schoen blew it.

ncgiantsfan: Jones is way better than Taylor and any notion that the latter will be the started next year is flawed at best. Dec 9, 2022 7:07:20 GMT -5
