Chubb at #2 doesnt make much sense, trading a 43DE to draft one for a 34D? He could transition, but there are more natural fits and that is a projection.

 

Adding Jerry Hughes is not ideal (especially contractually) schematically, but has 34 experience and would give them depth as an edge rusher, or options. 

Shaq L. would be a better fit as a SAM backer for them...

 

Trading down to 12 and 22 (plus) and taking Harold Landry (34WOLB) at 12 or McGlinchey (RT) then, McGlinchey(RT)/I.Wynn(LG)/Guice(RB)/Michel(RB)/Jackson(CB)/Hughes(CB)/Evans(LB) at 22 would go a long way to helping them "win now" and in the future.

Adding Shaq Lawson to play SAM backer would fit this mold as well.

You sold me, lets sign the papers. LOL

it's too bad we couldn't have gotten in with them on this deal.

 

Bills get 2nd overall pick

Bucs get JPP, Bills 12th, 2019 2nd

Giants get Bucs 7th, 69, Bills 22, 53, 65

 

I don't even know if something like that even makes any sense, but I'm just saying too bad we couldn't have worked something out where we end up with 2 and Giants only have to move down to the Bucs' pick 7

Allen is like Rothlisberger in 04. Small school, some questions, but most likely a top tier.

 

IIRC, Big Ben was a much more accomplished prospect than Allen, with twice the passing yards and nearly double the TDs...

Another blockbuster trade: Giants trading DE Jason Pierre-Paul and a 2018 fourth-round pick to Buccaneers for a 2018 third-round pick and a fourth-round pick, source tells ESPN.

 

 

this might impact our chances of trading up if they already have an extra 3rd round pick.  they might want Chubb as a replacement so they will need to stay in the top 5 to ensure that.  but my hope is they are conceding that they will not be selecting a QB so the smart move is to trade down

A "blockbuster" trade?

 

Tone it down Schefter.

Or if the Buccaneers are willing to give up a 3r for JJP it's too bad we couldn't have done Hughes or Lawson & #12 for #7

I wonder if Barkley falls to Jets I wonder if they take him or not. And hope for Bridgewater to get healthy.

 

To me this trade helps Bill's increase to trade up. But IMO.

I don't think that having Bridgewater would give them any pause at all regarding drafting a QB.  Bridgewater signed for a very small contract (relative to NFL QBs) and I imagine that was the best deal he could get given the great deal of uncertainty about his knee.

#7 would have been a great spot to get to if the price wasn't too much.  Then we could be telling the Giants with a straight face they are very likely looking at one of Barkley / Nelson / Chubb in a trade down.

 

The supposed impediment of the Colts trade (the "elite" player argument) is still very much there.

Sure, it's not a perfect analogy, just drawing lines. The questions on Ben were about the competition he faced. It's not an exact science.

I thought Big Ben was the #1 QB in that draft, way cleaner coming out (your right, accomplished as well) than Allen is and its not even close. The small school thing is the reason he didnt go #1 IMO (then and now).

This has some ramifications and I think everyone covered most of the ideas in this thread. 

 

1. This could mean they want Chubb, which would push a quarterback down the board to 4 at the very least, making a trade up into that 7 area possible for Allen, Mayfield, or Rosen...whomever the Jets and Broncos pass on. 

 

2. This could mean that they are acquiring Jerry Hughes in a trade down scenario. James Bettcher is a 3-4 coach, but his is a very hybrid front. It has some similarities to what we saw when Mike Pettine was here, and Jerry excelled in that defense. Jerry was always a pretty poor fit for McDermott's defense who typically uses bigger defensive ends. We could also offer them pieces they could use like Adolphus Washington, Ryan Groy stuff like that. They could get a player like Edmunds or Davenport at 12, or even Sam Hubbard at 22. 

 

3. This could mean that the Giants are going into more of a re-build and they are going to take a quarterback, so we would have to trade to 4 for the fourth best guy. 

 

4. This could mean the Giants knew JPP was a really poor fit and had the opportunity to get out of a really bad contract, so they went for it. This would put pass rusher up at the top of their needs though. There isn't much in free agency (maybe Dee Ford?) so they may need to work a trade. Even Olivier Vernon's fit is a bit of a question mark. 

 

So yeah it is probably just #4. This could make a trade down more likely, or less likely. We really have no way of knowing.

I have a feeling if we move up it is going to happen quickly now that NYG seem to be making moves....

Lol, thank you, now I just need to make the conference call with Beane and Gettleman!!

 

I do seriously think the Giants would be able to significantly help their team and overall roster by trading with the Bills more so than anyone else, especially given the scheme shift and lack of talent still that fits the D and offensive line. IMO the "not getting a premium talent" or drop off in talent arguement is flawed, Davenports ceiling is higher than Chubbs IMO, Nelson alone is not greater than getting say McGlinchey and Wynn. Thants not even taking into account the 2nd and 3rd rounders for instance.

Maybe we package picks with Hughes.

Or Lawson, who is cheaper, younger and fits their D better

if things stay the same i think the top 5 goes,

 

1.Darnold

2. Chubb

3. Mayfield

4. Barkley/Fitzpatrick? not qb tho

5. Allen - I think Denver will take a kid that is close to home and can sit behind Keenum, plus lots of upside

 

6. Colts, i think we may trade up here, they said they were willing to trade down again
