BREAKING: Giants looking to trade for Brian Burns

They aren't giving up their 1st this year, so unless we get their 1st next year as part of a deal, I'm going to be furious.

Two 2nd's is not the trade to make, I'd rather trade him for 1 pick towards the end of the 1st round than the two 2nd's

It's the exact same mistake we made with the CMC trade in taking the point value based on the stupid draft chart.  You can't do that with players of this caliber, it doesn't add up on the field.

That warrant was signed as Fitterer turned down the Rams haul.

This^^^  Turning down that trade was a colossal mistake. They were never going to get anything even close to that offer ever again.  That ship not only sailed, it sank to the bottom of the ocean.

a quarter takes 1 roster spot, and three dimes takes three.  Maybe that was what he meant.

i take the Gettleman quote (its paraphrased of course) as the point being if you have a true difference maker at one spot, it overcomes three guys who are say shaq thompson types. great is so hard to find its carries premium value. a top five/ten guy at a position changes the whole team.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
