The trade rumor mill has been cold thus far for the New York Giants but ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that teams could be looking to move up to No. 7 and have spoken to the Giants about a possible trade.
The Giants have the No. 5 pick, as well, and will use that to secure a stud at offensive tackle, cornerback or edge rusher. A trade down to No. 9 or even in the top 15 gets them more draft capital, and they still get to keep a high pick in Round 1.
Currently, there is no clear-cut No. 1 overall selection, so the draft is wide open. Giants general manager Joe Schoen has said that he has complied a list of the top seven players in this draft class and will take whatever two fall to him at Nos. 5 and 7.
The Giants have nine picks in this draft: two firsts, a second, two thirds, a fourth, two fifths and a sixth. They do not have a seventh-round selection.
