LW trade and 3rd round pick

Thegratefulhead : 1/16/2020 2:08 pm
If we get a compensatory 3rd round pick for Landon Collins can we give that to the Jets instead of our top of the third round pick. I can't find the official trade wording. If we could give the the compensatory 3rd rounder, I am less distressed by the trade.
probably not, but don't know if it's been 100% confirmed anywhere

if that was the case it probably would have been surfaced by a reporter by now.

BJ Hill and Carter, may never be anything like LW.

Besides, if we get another 3rd as a comp pick it's a wash,

Name one 3rd round pick the last 15 years besides Tuck who has done anything worth a second contract? I would say chances are the majority of them were busts.

Not True. That use to be the case, but has since been changed.

Incorrect, they can be traded BUT they have to be awarded first. I don't think there has been anything official from the NFL stating the Giants definitely got a 3rd comp pick FOR 2020.

I believe they changed that rule. Now they can be traded.

The Jets...  
bw in dc : 1/16/2020 2:29 pm : link
wouldn't do the trade without knowing specifically what the 3rd pick was. The Collins pick is still undeclared.

But, yes, we could theoretically use the Collins pick as a conditional part of the trade. The trading partner - the Jets - would have to agree...

That may be the worst logic I've ever seen. 3rd round picks are premium picks, even though we have sucked at them the past few years. Should we give away top 10 picks because we drafted Apple and Flowers in consecutive years, and they busted? The point is you need picks like those to rebuild. They are cheap players, and successful teams hit on those picks. Good teams don't give them away for impending FAs.

Even late round picks are important to hoard. Because they are dart throws. Sure, most 5th round picks are going to stink. But once in a while you get a George Kittle or Richard Sherman or other guys that become all pros. The more dart throws you have, the better chance you have of hitting a bullseye.

And when you are speaking about 3rd round picks, guys like Mario Manningham and Justin Tuck were 3rd round picks for us that played major roles in us winning our two SB titles.

And getting a comp pick is not a trade off, because we are dropping about 35 spots from the top of the 3rd to the bottom of the 3rd.
You can now trade compensatory picks  
Mike from Ohio : 1/16/2020 2:30 pm : link
but I would doubt the wording of the trade allowed for any 3rd round pick the Giants could come up with, including a compensatory pick. It will be the 68th overall pick they get.

And as mentioned many times before, you don't get x pick for y player. Compensatory picks are assigned using a formula that nets who you lost in free agency with who you signed and the relative value of their contracts. It is not as simple as losing a high priced free agent give you a 3rd round comp pick.

If people want to argue that LW is not worth both a 3rd RD pick and the cost of the contract, then they have a case. But despite the exceptions (which has happened in every round of the draft) a team does NOT usually get a player as talented as LW in RD 3.

Didn't the Rams  
Thegratefulhead : 1/16/2020 3:10 pm : link
Use a compensatory pick in this manner a few years ago?

"It is essentially the Rams' karmic payback for fleecing the Redskins back in 2012 for a treasure trove of picks that led to the selection of Robert Griffin III. The terms are as follows: Tennessee gets: Rams' first-round pick (2016), two second-round picks (2016), a third-round pick (2016), a first-round pick (2017) and another third-round pick (2017)."

I thought one those thirds was one the Rams received because we signed Jenkins.

It's far from a wash. It's the 68th pick vs. somewhere around #98.

Super, when you have posters describing a trade which has elicited legitimate debate among some, as “horrific” there is really no sense in debating it further with that party.

I have always found it incredibly frustrating to discuss issues with people who speak in absolutes, their closed mindedness makes objective dialogue next to impossible.

This is what I am talking about. TY for the link. I have not seen the official wording of the trade. When it was announced I remember reading "a 3rd round pick" I don't remember the the language of the "the Giants first pick in the 3rd round"

People here say the question of the 3rd round pick has been answered many times but i have seen nothing from either team that speaks to your question. The people who have given the answers have most definitely not seen the wording of the trade and are making assumptions. Maybe they are right. But until i hear something official, I’ll keep hoping

Maybe we're due?

We got a "known quantity" that will cost more than his market value because he knows he has ahold of DGs nuts.
