Three teams in play for Aiyuk. Washington offered pick 35 for Aiyuk. Patriots offered pick 34. Giants are also in play. If Aiyuk is traded, expect it to be to NE, WAS or NYG #FTTB #HTTC #Aiyuk #NYGiants #ForeverNE
Our BBI Rickey back on twitter, for now. Not sure Giants match this unless 2025 picks are involved.
You are giving up a second round pick and paying someone top 7 wr salary? 1) we don’t have that cap flexibility, 2) we have too many holes, and 3) I am not convinced Aiyuk would be worth that even if 1 and 2 weren’t an issue.
Why don't you think an ascending player be worth that? He's gotten better every year he's been in the league. He was already a 2nd team All-Pro last year. Which would mean he's currently a top 5-6 WR in the NFL.
and it'd be cheaper to move up in the second to grab an even better one. Aiyuk is a good player but you'd have to pay him right away. It'd be another weird "win now" move for a team with so many needs.

The Giants' biggest concern for getting who they want (signs point to Maye) is Patriots take him at 3 or another team trades up to 4 or 5 in front of them. Vikings have had productive talks with Cardinals about trading picks.

Expect the Pats to walk away from the draft with either Maye or McCarthy. Dream scenario for me would be trading up for 3 to get Maye. Giants love him. Pats then get JJ. Only concern is Vikings or Broncos taking JJ before 6.

Giants are being very mum on who they like and are picking. However they've done a ton of work on all the QBs and I expect them to take a QB in the first two rounds. They've done extensive homework and expect them to walk away from the draft with a new QB
Funny how every team looking to get Aiyuk is also likely to end up drafting a QB at the top of the first.
.
Although I don't think Aiyuk is a true No. 1 receiver, I don't know if the Niners would go for a 'conditional pick' in 2025. The Giants might have to do a little more there. I am a little conflicted about whether Giants should make this kind of move?

This! The Patriots have to come away with Maye or McCarthy, and the only risk free way is to stick and pick at 3. In the end I believe they’ll decide on Maye.
I’d give our 2nd and 3rd for Aiyuk with this logic.
You’d turn 2 2nds and a 3rd into Burns/Aiyuk, and wash the salary via having a QB on a rookie contract (Jones gets cut next year).
The reality is you’re not getting Aiyuk/Burns level players out of 2 2nds and a 3rd. And I’m someone that LOVES hanging on to picks…
Falls to 6…. Don’t know why I typed 3.
I would love that, it sounds like it's Maye or bust for us. 2 asshat leaks have both said we would not take JJM even if he made it to 6. Maybe Penix after trade down? I'm feeling like Schoen might be willing to pay what it takes to get Maye, if that's the case then you gotta love the conviction. I wonder how the Patriots or Cardinals would value KT in a trade? They both need a pass rusher. I would hope he could be worth a 2025 1st coming off a 12.5 sack season with 2 years left on rookie deal plus fifth year option.

Highly unlikely they trade away KT after just acquiring Burns with the thought of both playing under the new DC.

I wonder if we see a situation play out similar to when the Giants for Eli. Patriots take our guy, Maye, at 3 but then the trade doesn't happen until later.
Potentially they come to an agreement with New England that is contingent on McCarthy still being there at 6 when the Giants pick.

I'm sure they would do it for Maye.
I don’t.
I prefer JJM, but if they have conviction in Maye trading KT would not get in the way if it came down to that. Guaranteed. I wouldn't want to myself, hell I don't like the idea of trading a king's ransom for anyone besides cw and jd.
The most ridiculous rumor/scenario is the Pats wanting a QB (more McCarthy than Maye) then trade back to the Giants so we can select Maye at 3 and the Pats go back to 6 and risk the Vikings jumping ahead of them so the Pats trade up to for or 5 to get him.
It’s the most idiotic scenario I’ve ever heard. You don’t get with a QB. Especially when it’s just a few draft slot difference. If they want McCarthy, take him at 3. If they want Maye take him at 3. If they don’t want a QB, trade down and get a haul.
that a team wanting and needing a QB at the top of the draft had the one they most covet in their laps and decided to trade down a few spots and have the risk of losing him? Or even more ridiculous trade down then trade back up to a few spots behind their original pick to take them?
This isn’t the movie Draft Day. Some of you watched it too many times.

They didn’t meet with Russell Wilson and Drew Lock didn’t sign without a good chance to compete for a starting job looks like that won’t be necessary.
Aiyuk instead of drafting a cost-controlled receiver. We all know there a lot of good ones in this draft.
Ask the Chargers how they feel about Quentin Johnson.
He was drafted 21, not a top 10 WR like MHjr, Nabers and Odunze.
I think the assumption here is Giants going QB in round 1 and getting WR in another round. Obviously the top 3 WR in this class are the safest bet, but there's obviously an argument that having a proven Aiyuk, while costly, is better than drafting an unproven WR later in draft.
Aiyuk instead of drafting a cost-controlled receiver. We all know there a lot of good ones in this draft.
Exactly
At pick 47 we are unlikely to have any outside threat receiver options. 10-15 will be gone before out pick. Plus, they are rookies and wouldn't provide the security blanket for a rookie qb.
This is a draft deep in WRs and OTs. Draft your WR, don't trade for him. Save money and gain years.
He’s a plant from Giants org. He puts out good info early in the off-season (Burns trade) to build his credibility as an asshat. Little do we know that there was a handshake agreement prior to the start of the new year, and that Burns trade had already been agreed to. So “Rickey” releasing this info does no harm to NYG but builds his credibility
Fast forward to draft week- Rickey is dishing out all sorts of takes. And we are believing them because he’s the guy who has been on the money.l already this off-season. Jones is finished, Aiyuk is a target.
All of this is to smokescreen the Giants true intention, drafting one of their top 2 WR on their board at #6.

This would be very dumb since they don't have to hide their intentions if they want one of the three top receivers. At least two of them will be there at six.

WR only lasts into late second early 3rd... after that you are just adding a body.

I don't think that's the case because he's been giving info on other signings across the league. We love you Rickey, but my guess is you are plugged in with a large agency, either directly or thru a friend, that is well sourced.

They could also trade down with us with a deal in place to go right back up to 4 for JJM (whom they like more in this scenario). They then net the QB they like plus our 2025 1st after trading up with AZ. AZ did the same thing last year. They traded down to 12 with the Texans with a deal in place to go right back up to 6 for Paris Johnson Jr.
Why don't you think an ascending player be worth that? He's gotten better every year he's been in the league. He was already a 2nd team All-Pro last year. Which would mean he's currently a top 5-6 WR in the NFL.

Patriots will be walking away from the draft with either Drake Maye or JJ McCarthy. Despite what Wolf said today, I don't expect them to move from the third pick. The first three picks of the drafts will be QBs. #NEPatriots #ForeverNE #Patriots
Why miss out on their 3rd QB choice for more draft picks, makes no sense. They most likely stick and pick and I’d be surprised if it’s not Maye.

Before Goodell and Schefter conspired to get my account deleted, I said that Daniel Jones is not part of the Giants future plans. Ownership bought into this as well. They're hoping he holds a clipboard all season. I believe he's essentially done as a Giant.

I pray that this is true.

They didn’t meet with Russell Wilson and Drew Lock didn’t sign without a good chance to compete for a starting job looks like that won’t be necessary.
Ask the Chargers how they feel about Quentin Johnson.

He was drafted 21, not a top 10 WR like MHjr, Nabers and Odunze.

I think the assumption here is Giants going QB in round 1 and getting WR in another round. Obviously the top 3 WR in this class are the safest bet, but there's obviously an argument that having a proven Aiyuk, while costly, is better than drafting an unproven WR later in draft.

Exactly
At pick 47 we are unlikely to have any outside threat receiver options. 10-15 will be gone before out pick. Plus, they are rookies and wouldn't provide the security blanket for a rookie qb.
This is a draft deep in WRs and OTs. Draft your WR, don't trade for him. Save money and gain years.
He’s a plant from Giants org. He puts out good info early in the off-season (Burns trade) to build his credibility as an asshat. Little do we know that there was a handshake agreement prior to the start of the new year, and that Burns trade had already been agreed to. So “Rickey” releasing this info does no harm to NYG but builds his credibility
Fast forward to draft week- Rickey is dishing out all sorts of takes. And we are believing them because he’s the guy who has been on the money.l already this off-season. Jones is finished, Aiyuk is a target.
All of this is to smokescreen the Giants true intention, drafting one of their top 2 WR on their board at #6.

This would be very dumb since they don't have to hide their intentions if they want one of the three top receivers. At least two of them will be there at six.

WR only lasts into late second early 3rd... after that you are just adding a body.

I don't think that's the case because he's been giving info on other signings across the league. We love you Rickey, but my guess is you are plugged in with a large agency, either directly or thru a friend, that is well sourced.

Expect the Pats to walk away from the draft with either Maye or McCarthy. Dream scenario for me would be trading up for 3 to get Maye. Giants love him. Pats then get JJ. Only concern is Vikings or Broncos taking JJ before 6.
This! The Patriots have to come away with Maye or McCarthy, and the only risk free way is to stick and pick at 3. In the end I believe they’ll decide on Maye.
They don't have to come away with Maye or JJ... they did a ton of homework on Penix. They could always move to 6 and see if JJ falls or take Penix at 6
I was being facetious

They could also trade down with us with a deal in place to go right back up to 4 for JJM (whom they like more in this scenario). They then net the QB they like plus our 2025 1st after trading up with AZ. AZ did the same thing last year. They traded down to 12 with the Texans with a deal in place to go right back up to 6 for Paris Johnson Jr.
