Dave 'Te with a juicy Giants Rumor

The NFL Draft Report
PRO DAY RUMOR MILL
Chatter today at Tide Pro Day-Giants serious in talks with Raiders in attempt to move up for Quinnen Williams. No details, but it obviously will include #6 & other goodies

BleedBlue : 3/19/2019 3:29 pm : link
they are moving up but not for Q williams.


IF they get williams, i think a trade for rosen is almost a given considering there will be no #17 this year and waiting is a massive risk.

if they can move up for williams using a 2020 1st, then trade for rosen and go williams at 4 and dev bush at 17
Q Williams  
Thegratefulhead : 3/19/2019 3:30 pm : link
Is the best player in this draft...End of story. If we can get him, 2 years in row we will draft he best player in the draft. I think he will be better than Jerome Brown.
What "goodies?"  
Beezer : 3/19/2019 3:30 pm : link
The 17? No.

The Round 2 pick? No.

Either of the thirds? No.

After that, we can talk. Maybe.
That doesn't make any sense.

Yes... Quinnen Williams is elite and if you don't get Nick Bosa, Josh Allen, or Big Q then you are getting a top player not an elite player. He would be a monster for us and I would trade all day ever day as long as it doesn't include #17
I find it doubtful

George from PA : 3/19/2019 3:30 pm : link
Secures one of the top 3....of Bosa, Allen and Williams.....which are the best in draft.

But Where does he play in a 3-4?

I happen to think Quinnen Williams is the best player in the Draft. His quickness and dominance on the inside is truly reminiscent of Aaron Donald. Quinnen is truly a player you build your defense around.

With that being said, Quinnen is really a 3T. I'm not sure if Bettcher would really commit to a 4-3 that's built around Quinnen. We don't exactly have a lot of pieces, but if we're going to trade up for Quinnen, we must switch over to the 4-3. It would bring out the best in Quinnen.

I would assume that we are after one of the top 4 players in the draft. Kyler Murray, Nick Bosa, Josh Allen, and probably the top Giant want in Quinnen Williams.
The Giants can’t be stupid enough to give away ...

This is false  
Sammo85 : 3/19/2019 3:38 pm : link
There is no chance Raiders pass up taking Williams themselves. Also again Giants are in no position to be trading up in Round 1.

We have limited ammunition in Rounds 4,5,7 to use in trading up but that opportunity applies in Rounds 3,4,5.

We need to nail all three picks in the top 40. Heck some of our third and some of our fours and fives need to be immediate contributors on defense.

They traded up from 6 to 3 last year and it cost 3 2nd rounders. This would probably cost us less as A) it is from 6 to 4. Also this isn't a QB heavy draft like last year.

Without a specific target in mind that they knew they could land

Being okay with one of the top 2-3 QBs (Jets trading up to #3, Eagles trading to #2, Washington to #2) is one thing...

Being comfortable enough with either a QB, DT or EDGE just seems very farfetched, IMO
Maybe they think that QW, Bosa, and Allen are the elite 3!

You realize to be a team player Williams played out of position as a NG last year. How many NG have 19.5 TFL and 8 sacks! He was amazing and has big time pass rush and run stopping ability. That is why he is being called elite.

What if they have Murray as the only QB they'd take, and then Bosa, Allen, and Williams as their only blue chips? It makes sense in that case, because no matter what they're getting the elite talent.

Can't knock this move. This would mean we would get a stud on the DL either at ER or DL proper. 6, 37, and a future 3rd to guarantee Allen or Williams over White? That's a tough call...

It's not a simple calculation like that. It'd either cost more or less depending on which team wants it done more. But usually the team buying has to give up more. I think it'd be at least a second round pick in addition to the first swap.

Who? You don't play chances. If you have a player that fits what you want on this team then getting him isn't a problem. But who is trading up for a QB? Jax? No way. If Haskins falls to them then that is different but still see them going in a different direction. Miami? Not according to their reports of tanking this year and everything they have done so far has supported that claim? Cincinnati? Maybe. But now we are talking about a big drop down from 3 or 4 or 5. Why would NYJ, Oak, or TB want to drop down that far? It isn't like Cincinnati is desperate like other teams. So, what team will trade up and will give up an insane amount of picks to make it worthwhile for a team in the top 5 to tradd down?

We want our QB from next year group and not Rosen. We have a a way now with the new cap dollars and picks to get it done. Early posts indicated DG likes next years QBs a lot better and ELI is going to be here. Great plan by DG if it plays out.

I have a lot more respect for the target a player and trade up approach than I do for the "I can't believe this guy was still there when we picked. too much value for us to pass up" passive approach.

I'd still rather giving up all the picks from the 5th round and later (in addition to our #6). Let Mayock get his jollies drafting a shit-ton of fringe players while DG gets a stud while catching up on his sleep by leaving Nashville early.

That is pretty definitive. Mayock is a draft geek and would love the mental gymnastics of being able to jockey around the draft with the additional ammo. The total value is a 20 point overpay so it is fair in value. They still get a premium pick with our #6.

Why? They need all the help they can get rushing the passer. They have spent a ton of high picks on DL already. They need to build up that pass rush.

and not on the situation. It doesn't matter exactly who the Giants want at 1 overall. It matters who they can get at 6 and who they can get at 4.

If they have 4 blue chip prospects, they're not getting one at 6. At 4, you're getting at least 1. That's the whole point of the deal.

It's not about Williams per se. It's about Williams/Bosa/Allen/etc.

I'd be surprised if you applied that chart to trades involving draft picks if they correlated to the degree people seem to think they do.

Obviously, 6th round picks aren't worth as much as 2nd round picks. That doesn't mean teams use that value chart to determine how valuable their picks are. I'm sure it's much more complicated, with considerations payed to how deep the draft is, how valuable relatively the e.g. 165th pick in 2019 is compared to that same pick in 2020. Different drafts, different players, different value picks.

I wouldn't be surprised if teams used a similar way of ranking picks generally. But for actual trades, I'd be surprised if that chart explained them all (or even most).
A good beat writer could do a whole article on that pick chart  
adamg : 3/19/2019 4:23 pm : link
It's not like the trades teams do are secret. We can test how accurate that chart is. I would bet it's far from perfect.
So if you follow the chart  
The 12th Man : 3/19/2019 4:24 pm : link
We exchange their 1st the 4th pick and their 5th round pick

for our 6th pick overall our 3rd round pick

Would be exactly 1840 for 1840 this makes sense. This is definitely something I would do to get the best player in the draft 2 years in a row. It makes even more sense as they drafted Hall last year and Maurice Hurst. They love Bosa but they expect him to be taken by the 49ers. So they trade back and can still get something they want.
I would NOT make this trade with Raiders if they ask for too much  
SGMen : 3/19/2019 4:28 pm : link
At #6, we should land a stud defender, like my guy LB D. White.

Yes, Q. Williams will likely be an All-Pro in the NFL. You can't teach that kinda first step quickness and power to penetrate. Definitely a way better player than D. White.

I have Bosa, Q. Williams, J. Allen as my top 3 defensive players. All 3 should dominate in the NFL. If Murray goes #1 as perceived, well, if we trade for pick #4 we could end up with J. Allen, who in my mind is a notch below Q. Williams, if only because his high, high production was limited to really one big season.

If we send #6, our 2nd round and Shep I'm not sure that is good for us. I'd rather take D. White, a top interior OL in round 2, and send Shep to New England for their #2. We have too many holes to give up top 3 round picks. IMHO.

However, I do trade #6, our 2nd 3rd rounder and a 5th for #4 if it is Q. Williams for sure. That, well, yeah that is favorable to NYG's but not to Raiders. LOL
Not sure I'd want to even give up a 3rd rounder  
USAF NYG Fan : 3/19/2019 4:30 pm : link
with all the Giants' needs. I'd easily give away the 5th round picks as they won't likely amount to much. The 4th and 1 or 2 of the 5th rounders I'd probably be ok with.

Maybe a player is involved instead of a 3rd rounder?
The Jets traded 6, 37, 49, and a future second for the third pick  
adamg : 3/19/2019 4:32 pm : link
3 is worth 2,200

6 is worth 1,600
37 is worth 530
49 is worth 410
The value you assign a future pick is somewhat arbitrary but let's assume an average finish for the Jets at that time. The median value of a second round pick is 415.

Add that up you 2,955.

That would seem like a ridiculous overpay according to that chart. The Jets payed 34% more than the actual value according to that chart.

I'm just saying. There's really no good reason to use that chart as an indication of how teams value picks, because they don't value them in the way that chart indicates they should.
If you follow the chart the Jets overpaid  
The 12th Man : 3/19/2019 4:38 pm : link
for their trade by over 600 points but that was because the Bills were lurking and the Jets knew it. So they traded up into that spot to lock it in before the draft so no one could over whelm the Colts on draft day. They paid a premium to get to the position they wanted.

You're proving my point. Context matters much more than a chart of values that rarely ever captures the costs of doing business.
The chart was never

Do you read those?

I'm the same way.
if you move up

it needs to be for a QB this is a very strong defensive draft moving up isnt good value unless you have conviction in a QB.

gettleman has said several times he wants to follow the kansas city model this can only mean a trade up to secure haskins which will require a move up with either the jets or raiders who are also reportedly interested in haskins too

if murray does go 1 to arizona then bosa will almost certainly go 2 ,since neither 49ers or jets are going QB this is where you need to target first to beat oakland unless you trade with oakland or plan to take a trade with rosen where i wouldnt spend more than the second or third round pick given how fast he is being moved its a huge red flag

i never wanted him when they could have taken him either and nothing he has done on or off the field has changed to make him any better
To me it is a fallacy to take the strong

defense supply in the draft as an excuse to not draft D early.

The move is exactly the opposite, you go hard at the strength of supply and try to build abundant units.


and go for Offensive 'skills positions' (WRs, QBs, skinny people) in 2020.
can Qinnen Williams play QB ?

if he can't then my answer is no.

I've read a couple places where Williams is the best player in the draft. If I trade, I would much rather use an asset for Williams than Rosen.
we can have both, trade for Rosen and draft Williams, its all doable.

We could however move up in the 2nd round if someone we
covet slides . If were gonna start throwing picks around
then do it for a QB . We have plenty of holes to fill .
he isn't a nose tackle . He is a great prospect but
we should keep our assets and use them wisely .
we need to take our QB while we are in a position to do it without having to mortgage the franchise next year to get one.

Agreed. And we may be picking alot lower than 6 next year too. Even an 8-8 season could have us picking at 17. The cost will be pretty enormous to trade up for a top QB.
