Gotta admire him for getting his guy, if true. Those rooting for losses were doing so with Caleb, Maye and Daniels in mind, so if we land one without giving up the farm, all's well that ends well.
the Rico tweet is cryptic about who is taking Maye at #3. I don't blame him, but it is confusing. Hopefully, we can get some clarification.
If we included our negotiations with AZ (which would make sense and be smart of Schoen), then this could essentially be via a 3 team trade and possibly allow us to keep 47 and 2025 1st which was Schoen's goal.

I hope you're right, but I don't think so. It sounds like we dealt directly with NE.
As I've said, I think all of this is a huge mistake. But if we did this, Schoen owns it. It's the "Pottery Barn" rule. "You break it, you bought it." "You trade up for the player, you own that decision." I hate these massive move ups. Fifty percent fail, and I see nothing so special about Maye to justify doing it for hIm. Schoen's personnel decisions, especially regarding QBs, aren't good enough to justify allowing him to do this IMO. He was at least partially responsible for the Jones contract, and STILL hasn't fixed the OL.

Eric, are you cancelling the post-draft drinking bender?
Great question!!

So NE is taking Maye and we take McCarthy at 4?

As in, Giants trade up to 3?
Now that would be funny

Eric -
Is that New England taking him at 3?
Or us trading up with them to take him at 3?
You seemed to be happy before- I thought you wanted us to take Maye over JJMC. This would be a bummer, no?

Or whom?
Giants.
three team trade? NE goes to 4?

Giants.
Lol at the folks questioning if it's Pats or us after you excitedly said you got big news then Rico says maye at 3
Quote:
Or whom?
Giants.
Is Rico who told you or someone else? Just curious if it's two separate people sharing the same info
Don't shoot the messenger.
According to source, yes.
Connecting the dots, yes.
It sounds like NYG and NE have a deal in place that sends the Giants #3 pick. Giants will use this to select Maye.
No idea what we're sending back besides the obvious #6 pick.
Quote:
Did we trade up to the 3rd pick?
According to source, yes.
And boom goes the dynamite!

Yes!!! Maye the force be with us!!

Thank you sir. Hope it didn't cost a Brink's truck.
So I wouldn't celebrate or complain just yet.

3 1sts to move up 3 spots? Hahaha I mean come on now.
No way. Schoen had all the leverage knowing NE wanted JJM and with a deal in place for 4. No way in hell

no way we did this without "giving up the farm." Multiple #1's in all likelihood. This year, next year, and probably 2026 as well.
Better not be two. This isn’t Payton Manning.
3 1sts to move up 3 spots? Hahaha I mean come on now.
Could feasibly be pick 70 and 4 to NE, our 2025 2nd to AZ, and we get pick 3.
The Panthers didn't give up that much and they moved from 9 to 1 last year
I'm thinking we give up pick 70, 107 and 2025 2nd or less. Schoen had all the leverage knowing NE wanted JJM and having a deal in place with AZ.
"OMG! There's something else!"

So 6, 70, and 2025 2nd.... that isn't bad.
