was traded for a conditional 7th round pick and he does't meet the criteria, would he revert back to the GIANTS
No.

Generally, if the player doesn't meet the condition, the new team gets him for free.
well I guess it's better than nothing

b/c the Giants would have cut him anyway...

I guess the Broncos wanted to assure that they got him before he went to waivers?

Has a trade reverted back based on performance conditions? Not sure how this could enter your mind as a possibility
with McManus

gone, who will run Em city?

Seriously, the condition is dependent on how long McManus remains on the Broncos roster. So with Prater suspended 4 games it's probably something like if McManus spends 4 active games with the Bronco's the Giants get a 7th round pick.

if he doesn't spend 4 active games on the bronco's roster he's been cut.

those are the options (my guess at the conditions, serious question about em city though).
In that scenario, the Giants would get

Has to be on the Broncos roster after Week 4 for us to get a pick.
Well week 5

is their bye, and then Prater returns so a pick is unlikely.

I don't care about the pick too much, but apparently the Giants traded him to Denver to keep him out of Philly who coveted him.

It would have been nice if it was simply 4 games, and not after 4 games.

this way the Giants can get another 7th round pick and acquire an OL, beason was a 7th, why not an OL.

I don't think the trade was made to keep him away from Philly ... HE WAS BEING WAIVED ... The Giants management has a good relationship with Denver and were being helpful to them in their time of need ... the conditional 7th round pick is incidental towards strengthening the relationship they have with Denver ...

I haven't seen the conditions of the trade posted anywhere. It could be a simple as making the opening day roster

That conditional pick is apparently tied to how long McManus remains on the Denver roster. Multiple reports have indicated that the Giants made the move to keep McManus away from the Philadelphia Eagles, who were believed to be interested in signing him.


sure he was being waived, but the Eagles needed a kicker and the Giants got to keep him away from the Eagles, not sure why you don't see how those two things can be mutually exclusive.
PJ - where did you hear that Philly coveted McManus?
