re: Team still shopping players, another deal expected soon

We can't give away all our value for 1 player. OBJ to the Saints would cripple us.

We are under the cap. We literally cannot go over the cap or the deals won't be approved.

We do need to clear money for the early round draft picks and for the 52nd and 53rd players + the PS once the start counting. Only three players save enough for that by themselves: Brees(ain't happening), Jordan(extremely unlikely), and Evans(who we were going to cut before discussing a pay cut that never happened).

Pretty clear we're trying to trade Evans but we are trying to get value. If it doesn't happen he'll get outright cut once we have to start signing our picks.

So that makes me think he may be more of a draft day trade unless someone ponies up now.

So we're likely looking at Bush being dealt soon.

Besides it would cost us, like Ditka-deal levels to get him

Yeah i feel you, I dont want to give up too much.

But we do have the picks now to pull something like this off...if that is what loomis and SP want to do

if Evans get traded, that's an awfully big contract some team will have to pick up.

not too many teams pay a guard that kind of bread.

i don't think Grubbs took a cut from the Chiefs when he got traded though.

did he?

please link us to even one of these rumors

we'll probably have to include a pick if we trade evans

The rumors are starting to spread now that the player we are targeting is OBJ

The pass blocking was about the same but Grubbs is a far inferior run blocker. He sucks at it.

Crazy thing was his strength was supposed to be run blocking while he was weaker in pass blocking. Kinda like Hawthorne was supposed to be good in coverage.

This is idiotic. There is no scenario in which the Giants trade OBJ.
