We're the ones going to be hit with the singing bonus.

Mr. Chubb!!!

salary cap move. And possibly Betcher doesn't think he's a great fit in our new scheme?

Shocking news. How much of a cap hit are they taking for the trade?

hello Chubb.

which doesn�t excite me, but I get it

Not at #2. So possible trade down.

what... Chubb is now REALLY in play.

.

makes no sense at all.

Now we have a glaring hole at RDE.

.

?

How much cap space does this save us ?

that signed a second contract here. Good luck, JPP!

The #Bucs give up a third-round pick and swap fourth round picks with the #Giants in exchange for JPP. A whole new world with the #Giants.

Actually, I'm pretty sure we're going to take a big cap hit.

Beckham and Collins need to be signed.

endorsed.

Tomlinson Snacks and Vernon...JPP was expendible with the new 3-4 look, no?

THIS

Take the hit and move on for the future. Short term pain for long term gain.

to 1 for Darnold.

That was not going to be a good contract for us. I wish we traded earlier in FA, could have gotten some better guys.

Plus with the move to a 3-4 he just didn't fit. Chubb too is not a 3-4 guy. One of the benefits of running a 3-4 is we can get tweeners later in the draft and we just signed a bunch of guys. TB looks better with the move.

Makes more sense now that we are interested in Chubb. We couldn't tie so much money up with 3 DE's like that.

I bet we move down to 4. Cleveland can get their QB and RB 1 and 2.

move rather than a "we're trading a DE because we want to draft a DE" move?

So #NYG trade JPP for a 3rd.

Edwards may make more sense in the 3-4.

JPP was never going to be a 3-4 OLB. if anything they could have tried him at DE

the OLB are going to be vernon and martin no? If the plan was to draft Chubb at 2, why sign martin to the deal that they did?

If we pass up a potential franchise QB or Barkley for Chubb. Especially with the 2nd pick. Better trade down now if looking at Chubb

So the Giants get No. 69 overall from the Bucs. Now have No. 66 and 69 in the third round. And they gave up No. 102 overall in exchange for No. 108 overall in the fourth round

for a 3rd rounder.

it looks.

Live cap would have been 12.5.

Dead cap is 11.25

Small saving indeed but not an actual hit.

Doubt it. Chubb is not. 3-4 DE and All signs are that Giants are switching to 3-4.

I think it was just a salary dump. JPP is not a 3-4 DE either and really had no place on the team that could justify his salary

free up salary

excited to see the new 34 defense though. Im sure JPP will love being back in FL.

how so? It just means we are officially moving to a 3-4 and JPP is a prototype 4-3 DE...

it won't keep me awake at night. Got a 3rd...frees up the cap bla bla...

I never complain when you take a big salary and exchange it for even a limited asset in return.

I did question whether JPP could play 3-4 end. He seeems too long for that role. This seems to confirm it.

I'm happy we have Vernon here. We need him more than ever and I suspect he's much better served for the 3-4 edge rusher than JPP was.

Go Terps was right!

don't want JPP at 3-4 OLB and he's wasted at 3-4 DE.

#69 and #108? assuming the picks are all this year.
