40 days til the draft...let's generate some discussion...What would it take to trade up to take DE Myles Garrett?
Different scenarios include trading up with Cleveland or, if Cleveland maybe takes a QB, trading up to the #2 or #3 spots.
Cleveland has a bunch of high picks this year and next so why would they want more. This could be a problem unless we had a player we could tempt them with.
SF and Chicago could also use QBs so maybe we're talking about trading up to the top 5.
If we somehow managed to swing for the fences while Eli still has a few years left, re-established the pass rush, protected ourselves against JPP not performing, and possibly creating a shut down defense, we wouldn't need that many more pieces on offense to push this team over the hump.
What would it cost and would you do it? Would you play the hit-a-home-run-or-strike-out game or okay it safe and add 7 more players via the draft?
Give me Okwara, Andrew Adams, Sterling Shepard, 1st round and 2nd round both this year and next year...
I wouldn't do it, obviously, if I were the Giants but I would if I were Cleveland...
Why would you give up OBJ?

A stroke of genius...for the 'Skins.
I'll go out on a limb and predict that the Giants do in fact trade up -- maybe in round 2, like they did for Collins. Thing is some positons are so deep there might not be a need to trade up in this draft, just stand pat and take the corner or rb in round 2. There will be a some there worth taking.
Maybe round 1 sees the Giants trade up for the TE. I don't think they trade up for a rb or ol. Passrusher? Doesn't seem to be likely.
Now you're talking
