"Giants are looking to trade down"

So that gives me some comfort that maybe, just maybe, we'll be going QB tonight.

And we trade out of it to fill 'multiple (short term) needs' ... I will not be happy

If we had a "like" button, I would click it.

the Browns want out of #4, and the Broncos want out of #5?

Got it.

I agree completely..

Very true unfortunately.

And, if we really have multiple needs, what the heck are we doing even considering a RB

How far back though?

Taking Barkley with Rosen and Darnold on the board wouldn't.

Take advantage of the value you have with the #2 pick!

It'd be awesome if we got future first rounders back


And with Darnold being available at #2, we should be able to get a king's ransom

picking at 2 is a chance to get a game changer - A top QB, or a guy like SB, could very well be game changers.

if Darnold is available, take him.

That's if you think Sam Darnold is a future franchise QB. If you think he's going to be like Blake Bortles or JaMarcus Russell, then you trade with a team that believes in his talent.

Better include a 2019 1st at a minimum.

Barkley, or a trade down for me.

I rather take Darnold, if he is there. If he is not, I rather trade down over taking Barkley, but they to hit on these picks, which is no sure thing given the recent draft history.

Realize, DG is not JR, but it is still a crapshoot.

But if Darnold is there, that'd be very difficult to pass on.

Amen.

I want a franchise QB.

But if the Giants are not convinced there is such a guy there, they have a ton of holes: RB, WR, OL, DL, LB, DB.

IF the Browns take Mayfield, and Jets will take QB at 3...

#Giants could trade with the #Broncos (who want Sam Darnold), drop down to #5, and still land Saquon Barkley.

If Giants could get to pick 4 and still get Barkley and another 1st this would be outstanding.

This is my hope.

..

We should be looking at an RG3-type of haul. That's the precedent.

IDK Eric. If a QB they feel could be the next franchise guy is there, they should just pull the trigger.

If they don't trading back makes more sense than taking a RB no matter how good he is at #2 or a DE that doesn't seem to be a great fit for the new defense we expect.

If they want a good back, Chubb will be a good one and available later.

If they can get 2 picks in the first and come away with both Notre Dame OL and Chubb later, that wil likely do more to solve the long term running game issues that Barkley alone.

That said, I would really enjoy watching that kid run for the Giants. OBJ, Barkley and Engram will provide some very exciting play together.

LOL

and passing on both to trade down would be the textbook definition of getting "too cute."

I don't know how many times I hear this and get so grumpy about it. You have no idea who the Giants have listed as the best of the draft #1 and what the Giants feel is their best way to build and win now.

I've read they're interested in trading down.

Barkley could go to the Browns at 4 though. So it could be Chubb as well.

now has QB and RB covered as well as the trade down. Still time for the DE speculation so she can have all her bases covered.

can take a RB who may end up the greatest running back in Giants history.

Or a QB who starts for 10+ years.

Or a DE who has a shot to break Strahan's sack record.

My "perfect" draft is trade down for a ransom, then perhaps trade back up a few spots to land a prime target.

...since the end of last season. Thank goodness, the draft is today. Maybe then, some semblance of sanity returns.

Yeah, not sure I'm taking this 'report' seriously, tbh.

The Cleveland Browns say hi.

that would set up up for a couple of years - LOL

Again, don't make the assumption they love a QB. They might. They might not.

Or we could wind up like the Browns

"their guy" isn't there. So if their guy is Darnold perhaps this has some legs.

If the Jints don't have a "bang on the table" QB on their Board, I would be ecstatic trading with Denver.

I'm not sure I would take Barkley at 5 either. If someone in the top 10 then is desperate for Barkley, I might trade again, but doubt that 'don't get cute' DG would.

Eric: The question is why would the Giants not consider there to be a potential franchise out there when all 31 other teams in the NFL do and you have as many as a half dozen other teams all desperately trying to get up closer to the top 5 to get one of them. Just doesn't make sense that we'd be the one outlier.

Yes, but if DG doesn't BELIEVE they are franchise QBs, why would he take them? You have to be in love with your guy.

Spoke to a Giants source. He said the feeling in this building today is the Giants are looking to trade down. When I asked why? He said �we have a ton of needs�
