We get him for anything less than #9 and John Lynch will become a legend around here and I'll be over that highway robbery.
How do we trade a 2 for a FQB then justify trading #9 for a top WR? Would love to get OBJ but not for our #9 pick.
Because Jimmy was still a backup with potential when we dealt for him and with his pending free agency, the Patriots weren't dealing from a position of strength.
The Giants don't have to trade Beckham and have the ability to control his rights for multiple years. He's also a top 3 player at his position and has yet to turn 26 years old.
It's probably a dream to think you'll get him from them for less than a first round pick. Beckham is also a better player than every single player we could get at #9, so I'm good with moving the pick if that's what it takes to secure him and keeps him away from the Rams/Cards/Seahawks.
