Giants' Draft Strategy: Trade Down for Multiple Picks

0:00On March 24th, the nearer Giants hold the 5th pick in next month's NFL draft, putting them in prime position, but not locked into grabbing a top 5 talent. Many see them as a strong, trade-down option to stockpile more picks this year and beyond, especially with plenty of defensive standouts expected. Early, Notre Dame running back Jeremiah Love stands out as the premier offensive prospect, and if the Tennessee Titans pass on him at number 4, the Giants might not bite either. Back at open the door for a team like the Cincinnati Bengals to jump up and snack him. The Bengals could use a fresh running back with Chase Brown in his final contract year, and their picks are close enough to the Giants that a swap. Wouldn't dilute New York's value too much. Teams have made similar moves recently, like last-use trade for a Heisman winner. In a potential deal, Cincinnati might send their 10th pick, 41st overall, 110th, and next year's 1st rounder to New York in. Change for the 5th spot plus a couple later Giants picks.

1:00That would net the Giants three selections in the 1st 41, letting them target multiple starters, perhaps even a defensive back like Mansour. Delayne. This kind of move would supercharge the Giants rebuild, turning one high pick into a hall of immediate contributors across the roster.
