2024 and 2025 1st plus Dexter

“for the qb they want to draft”

solves some Cap issues and ots the price you pay to get what you want
The time to trade Dexter (or Andrew Thomas) was before they got paid

If you want to trade players to move up, it's probably going to be guys on rookie deals.
Everybody on the roster can be put on the table  
nygiantfan : 2/21/2024 3:46 pm : link
except Dex and Thomas.
Nope that’s way too much

to trade up how high?
I really have to watch  
Biteymax22 : 2/21/2024 3:53 pm : link
a lot more of Williams tape to make a decision.

If I really, really felt strongly about a QB, yeah I'd make this trade and Dex is by far my favorite player on this team.

If Williams is the next Mahomes, the only player I wouldn't give up for him is Thomas because Williams/Mahomes can't play QB on their backs.

Agreed. The player would probably be KT or Wandale. Still way too much to give up IMHO.
Someone asked me

if Harbaugh really wants JJ McCarthy and offered Justin Herbert for Pick 6, next years 1st, Daniel Jones (To make Money work), and Dexter Lawerence would I do it.

I don't think I would but that is tempting to be set at QB for the next 10 years.
Swap out Dexter  
Jay on the Island : 2/21/2024 4:00 pm : link
for anyone on the roster besides Andrew Thomas.
If they are sold on one of the top guys  
widmerseyebrow : 2/21/2024 4:00 pm : link
I think you have to do it. Dexter is one competitive advantage we have over other teams wanting to trade up. Only having to drop down to #6 is the other.
To the Bears, I’m assuming?  
The_Boss : 2/21/2024 4:00 pm : link
I might be inclined.

Agreed. But even it was possible with the cap, there is no way I would trade Dexter or Thomas.
Trade 1 of the only 2 great players the Giants have....plus an extra 1  
George from PA : 2/21/2024 4:22 pm : link
For a flyer at QB.

OMG!!!!!

If you think draft picks are just "flyers," why do the Giants have so many scouts and personnel people? Why do other teams?

You may want to consider there is some skill and expertise that goes into the process.

For the QB THEY want.. the 1st is worth 3000 "Points" the 6 is worth 1600...so, you're making yourself the winner pf the pick...if THEY want it.

It allows you space to acomodate saquon and bring in talent...or ditch saquon and bring in talent

As for DEex...GREAT Player in his prime. Yes, gettinmg paid but young and tip top. It's a big sacrifice, and it's a realistic way to win a pick

Or maybe they LOVE JJ at 6?..I do if They do

Bears have a lot of cap space  
bceagle05 : 2/21/2024 4:36 pm : link
so they’d probably be receptive to Dex’s contract, but that’s a bit much from the Giants end of things.
Ok … let me get this straight … trade THE best player on the roster  
Spider56 : 2/21/2024 4:40 pm : link
for a bonafide ‘maybe’ … and are you suggesting the guy who’s going into the draft without an agent? Surely you jest …
No for me. Big know.  
Giantimistic : 2/21/2024 4:47 pm : link
The best way to win on defense is pressure up the middle. Look what Chris Jones did to the Niners. Just as much responsible for the chiefs win as Mahomes in that game.

Dex + 2 firsts is essentially 4 firsts  
j_rud : 2/21/2024 4:55 pm : link
Not feeling it.
Dex is our only All-Pro caliber defensive player  
mfsd : 2/21/2024 4:56 pm : link
on a team desperately short of elite talent. Yeah, QB is the most important position, but if they want to make a trade up for a guy they love, trade current and future picks
For all of you that watched the movie  
Earl the goat : 2/21/2024 5:35 pm : link
Draft Day 2014. Kevin Costner. I think Bo Callahan is a bust

Well I think Caleb Williams is a bust

Does it solve the salary cap issues or make them worst?  
Beer Man : 2/21/2024 5:53 pm : link
Let the cap experts speak, but I believe if they trade him, all of his remaining prorated signing bonus accelerates to 2024 as that part of his compensation remains the responsibility of the Giants.
Not dex

Picks I could swallow
No

No way!  
MNP70 : 2/21/2024 7:19 pm : link
Since '98 (Peyton) there is no other #1 overall pick that made their franchise turn around 180 degrees and even then, it was a 50/50 pick because Leaf was a consideration at the draft also. Luck was on his way but still didn't work out. QB's are very difficult to pick thinking it should be a sure thing.
How many other Ring of Honor players should we trade  
BrianC : 2/21/2024 7:30 pm : link
The most shocking thing about Sexy Dexy is that he is still actually underrated by many in this league. He will be in the Ring of Honor someday as long as we're not stupid enough to trade him away. There are so many other trade options open to us if we want to move up for a QB.
The Giants aren't doing this.  
FStubbs : 2/21/2024 8:16 pm : link
Moreover, if you're talking decisions that Mara would interfere in, that would be one of them. Dexter's on the path for being a lifetime Giant.
GTF outttta heeeereeee

Im assuming that they would see the guy they want. I have no strong opinion. I so thibk they need to draft a Qb who is at least quickly projectible, if not a “lottery pick”. any example applies to the Top pick, or oerhaps the 2nd/3rd
I love Dex!  
Rafflee : 2/21/2024 10:38 pm : link
For the record, when they drafted him I feltbhe had a chance to be the best Defensive Player of his Draft… pretty close
Not trading Dex and Thomas for anyone  
PatersonPlank : 2/21/2024 11:07 pm : link
Can't trade away your best young players, you will never get better.
Yes,  
Fifty Six : 2/22/2024 12:02 am : link
Let's trade one of the only 2 building block players th8s team has in the roster lol

Yeah, i'm not really sure about that, after having like 3 good picks in the first round from the last 10 drafts.
