Per Raanan, Giants discuss Kenny Golladay with Lions

The Dude : 10/28/2020 7:13 pm

Not sure how much stock you put into Jordan Raanan confirming something, but per twitter ( I don’t listen to his podcast), confirms at the very least a discussion was had.

Unless Giants are trading their own expiring players straight up, i don’t see this rebuilding team trading for a future high priced WR. Zero chance any picks should be involved and much like LW last year, why give up assets for someone you can pay in FA. i can only see this happening if A) Lions have no intention of paying Kenny and B) Ironically, LW would have to be involved..or maybe Zeitler/Peppers or other players whose names have popped up in rumors.

The Lions would never let him go

for less than a 3rd, because that's the comp pick they would get if he opted for FA and signed elsewhere.

One the other hand, any team trading for him should have a contract agreement in place BEFORE the trade. Only Gettleman would do it ass backwards.

We have to go ER in Round 1 this year -- and we need a solid #1 WR -- so I don't have a problem with losing a draft pick to get a receiver like Golladay as long as it's not a 1, 2 or 3

.

They could also use a CB desperately.

God almighty

Doesn't Gettleman ever learn from his mistakes? Please, no more trades and can his ass 10 seconds after the season is over.

That’s assuming the Lions don’t sign any free agents. Who they sign will impact the comp pick formula

I don’t believe for a second that DG would consider making a trade

like this unless Judge was firmly onboard. So what would motivate them to consider this if they could get him for the right price? Perhaps Judge believes having a better wr is the only way for him to fully evaluate Jones prior to the draft in order to determine whether or not they consider drafting another qb.

We definitely need to improve our WR Corp and KG is still young

PatersonPlank : 10/30/2020 12:02 pm : link

He can be part of the future plan. I'd definitely consider him in a player-for-player trade (someone like Zeitler or EE), and I would absolutely consider giving a 3rd for him. Its unlikely we can get a proven WR of his caliber in Rd 3 anyway (at least it would be a guy who's unproven and more of a risk).

All this is of course dependent on getting him signed as part of the deal. I would not let him remain a FA at the end of the year.

Player for player is one thing. But to you all that keep thinking

LBH15 : 10/30/2020 12:12 pm : link

a winning strategy is to trade our draft picks for another team's relatively good player that they don't want to keep is eye-rolling to say the least.

Have some of you taken a class from Gettleman on how not to rebuild a roster?

but I'd agree he's not the player to pay #1 dollars.

disagree. he's every bit a top wr in this league.

that being said, i wouldn't give up anything earlier than a 4 and if you do the 4 you need to have a contract extension agreed on before the trade

If he's a top WR in the NFL, the price tag is much higher, like a #1 draft pick and more.
