Pretty Rickey on NYG-NE potential trade

Pretty Rickey 213
@PrettyRickey214
New England has agreed to trade the #3 pick in the 2024 draft, along with a 2025 4th round pick, to the Giants for #6, #47, 2025 1st and 3rd round picks and two players on rookie deals. No confirmation on the players yet, but it is presumed to be Azeez Ojulari and Evan Neal. Stay tuned

This could be a fake account claiming to be Rickey, so take it for what it's worth. But, I could see this being how the trade looks, especially the players.

The Chiefs - Colts trade involving L'Jarious Sneed is stalled, but not dead. The trade compensation is set at a swap of picks 15 and 32 and a 2025 3rd round pick. The hold up is over the contract the Colts will sign him to. Sneed wants 3 years $75 mill. #Colts @StampedeBlue

1 year of Ojulari and 2 years of Neal (assuming his options isn't picked up) translates to what in draft pick terms?

A lot of people though AT was terrible his first two years also. Errick Flowers was a horrible RT, but turned out to be a pretty good OG. There is still a good chance he can be a productive player. Some players take longer than others.

I’ve really come to feel that the difference between good front offices and bad ones isn’t as much making good picks, its realizing they’ve made a bad one and moving on quickly.

The odds in the draft are low as it is, you can’t feel bad about making a bad pick and double down on it like the Giants have been.

This would be the compensation to give to the Bears to move to the first pick in the draft.

Which I would do to get my pick of the litter.

This is way too much to possibly wind up with our third choice player.
This would be the worst trade in franchise history

You really want to trade for an unproven, crap shoot, 3rd QB in the draft for 2 players and 4 draft pucks? The Giants would have no impact draft picks for two years....where are they getting a WR, RB, SS, TE, DT, and 2 CBs at the LEAST in the next 2 years?

I am just so thirsty for a franchise QB. I'd probably give up a finger for one, Haha. This is the most beaten down I've been as a Giants fan in awhile. Just give me hope.


And whiffed on Neal. Gave Jones an insane deal. This roster is just as bad as when he took over. The best players on the team are Gettleman's picks. We have to be honest. We cannot just cherry pick what we want to fit out narrative. You're a good poster but saying we just give up whatever for a risky situation is not the answer. I don't want to get all into the statistics but Mahomes is the only 1st round QB to win a SB in the last X years. Imo, it is SB or bust. Just being a good team isn't good enough for me. We have seen it time after time after time. QBs need help. There was a statistic where no team has ever won a SB with taking up over a certain percentage of the cap. Yes, QB is the most important position in sports but that doesn't mean you do anything for that QB. It is the ultimate team sport. The other players matter too.

6 and 47 alone meets the "trade value" equivalent. Ok throw in next year's 2, or 1 if necessary but not 1 and 3.

I wouldn't mind Neal if they think he isn't going to turn it around - clears some cap if designated post June 1 trade - almost $3 mill

In all honesty, Maye may not be the #3 QB. We don't know who the #2 is after Williams. Just because Wash picks Daniels doesn't mean he is better or turns out better than Maye (or McCarthy).

Technically, this trade would just about match what the Jets gave up when they traded pick 6, 37 and 49 and a future 2nd. A future 1st value is basically a little better than pick 37 and the future 3rd plus 2 young players we don't believe in and the extra value of 2025 1st vs pick 37 basically equates to what the Jets traded. I was imagining we would have to trade pick 6, 47 and a future 1st, 2nd and maybe a 3rd to sweeten the deal. This is very similar only with a couple young, cheap players instead of the 2025 2nd. This is a very realistic trade package. I'd imagine we could have kept the 2025 1st if we dangled KT but Schoen didn't want to do that. Or maybe made it a 2025 2nd and Hyatt instead of the 2025 1st but once again he wouldn't want to do that as Hyatt has shown the potential to be a star. If we don't get the injury bug I think we could easily be around 9-8 with an much easier schedule so that 2025 1st could be around pick 20-25 imo.

Bruner4329 : 3/22/2024 8:34 pm : link

“But if Joe & Dabs think one of these QBs is a franchise QBs,  
Reese's Pieces : 3/22/2024 8:36 pm : link
Then move Heaven and earth….”

If Joe and Dabs think a quarterback is the franchise quarterback, and most other NFL talent evaluators feel the same, then give everything up for him. Peyton Manning, John Elway, Troy Aikman. But if the two of them don’t have a lot of company in their evaluation, then it is a big gamble. If you’re not taking the first or second off the board, it is a big gamble.

I haven’t done the research, but if you’re taking one of the quarterbacks generally thought to be the 3rd, 4th and 5th best available, they all probably have about the same chance of being the future Hall-of-Famer and you drastically cut your risk if you keep the 2nd rounder and next year’s 1st.

I think this is a fake prettyrickey, but I'm just responding to those whom think this is totally unrealistic. To get pick 3 realistic compensation without any players would be pick 6, 47, 2025 1st and 2nd imo. I know it would be a lot, but that is realistic compensation and it's only a mistake if the QB isn't good.
I don't think this is as unrealistic as some on here thing  
LW_Giants : 3/22/2024 8:57 pm : link
Probably will be less than this, but it may end up being close to this if we move up.

It's a bold move, but sometimes you have to take huge swings like this. If it backfires, we regroup in two years--which ironically is probably when the next class of QB's will come out that match this year's level of talent.
Also, I'd like to see a pie chart of the people

This is just not true. No offense but this is the burned out fan in you. Yes, plenty of franchises have been hindered by the cost of trading up for a QB. There are multiple ways to build up a team. Giving up this much pretty much guarantees this team isn't going anywhere because we have so many holes to fill and we will be limited on resources to do so. No QB ever does it on his own.


No offense, this post is the Pollyanna in you. The team has been terrible for more than a decade. It’s time to swing for the fences.

Eli trade was effectively 1st round swap between picks 1 and 4, 3rd and next years 1st and 5th. This is not that much different except for players and recently adding Elemuenor and Burns make both more expendable.

AcidTest : 3/22/2024 9:32 pm : link
how all the people saluting this idiocy are so convinced that the QB we would take after trading up to #3 would be a franchise QB. That certainly explains why they would be OK giving up every draft pick for the next three years to move up. Except that 50% of first-round QBs bust, and the guy making that decision is the same person who signed Jones to that ridiculous contract.

Somebody said they weren't allowed to do math at work. Here's some math:

Nix at #6 plus the players we'd take with the draft picks we'd lose, as well as Neal and Ojulari, is much more likely to help the Giants than JJM, Maye, or Daniels at #3. And I don't want to take Nix at #6.

Franchise QBs vs. Franchise WRs

The positional value of a QB is obviously higher than a WR. And franchise QBs tend to last a lot longer than franchise WRs.

Also, if a QB loses a step, it's not a big deal. When a WR loses a step, he's a JAG or out of the NFL. (Like OBJ after year 6.)

Here's a list of career lengths of some top Giants WRs and QBs

WRs

Amani Toomer 13-year career
Frank Gifford 12-year career
Plaxico Burress 11-year career
Kyle Rote 11-year career
Homer Jones 7-year career
Hakeem Nicks 7-year career
Mario Manningham 6-year career
Victor Cruz 6-year career
Steve Smith 6-year career

QBs
YA Title 17-year career
Eli Manning 16-year career
Phil Simms 15-year career
Charlie Conerly 14-year career
