FireChans Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Giants can save $13M against the cap if they traded him today. Obviously his contract is a BAD one and he had a bad year but Joe Judge and them boys made everyone look bad. He may be the best #3 outside WR in the league though. And the Giants may have to offload him for a 7th rounder in 2028. 5 3 1 1 3 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToGoGo Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I always thought he was a great talent, but he may not have his head in the game. Along with the terrible contract and the excellent depth we have, it just doesn't make sense. OBJ makes sense for a 1 year contract and arrives near the trade deadline for a Super Bowl run. He proved last year he can do that. Golladay could backfire. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let them cut him and then sign him for a fraction of that if you want - if not oh well. Don’t let teams off the hook for stupid contracts for below average players. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddaryl Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) Why would we want demote Shakir? Who I view as WR3... He showed way to much to think there's an expensive upgrade on the downside that would play better. I would find ways to get Shakir more touches before blowing stupid money or draft picks on what I view as a downgrade.

While it is true that the Giants would save $13M in cap space this season (despite $8.15M in dead cap), they’d also have to eat another $10.2M in dead cap next season. I have to think that it is worth $2.8M for them to see how he does with the new coaches. Even if he has a bad season, he will have another chance next year with a different QB. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/new-york-giants/kenny-golladay-21838/ Edited August 23, 2022 by BarleyNY 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetermansRedemption Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 If you really want another WR, just sign OBJ and then keep one of the WR’s currently on the roster. No need to get Golloday, guy has been horrendous since leaving Detroit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthomas Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 anyone who does fantasy football knows how poorly Kenny G's career has gone in recent times. IF we wanted to pick up a wr, wouldnt OBJ be cheaper from an asset & cost perspective? And with a better pedigree of work, without the injury concern & high price tag? Never against trying to make the roster better but dont think KG is the one for us imho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKenzie and Crowder will likely be the #3 and 3A if you have to label them. I consider Crowder primarily a slot receiver and expect McKenzie to line up all over. Then ,some targets will go to Shakir and Cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rc2catch Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I am probably one of Gollodays biggest fans. But Gettleman gave him a ridiculous contract considering his injury history. He’s going to need a 1 year prove it deal when he’s done in jersey after his last couple years of injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They "could" fit nearly anyone, with consequences hurting them down the road, major consequences in the case of Golladay. The right question to ask is generally, "Should they fit ...?" In the case of Golladay I think the answer is hell no. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKenzie and Crowder are slots ... both of whom can play outside. Crowder in particular has done so a bunch in the past. I personally expect Shakir to be the most frequent #3 outside guy late in the year, but early I think it'll be a mix-up of Crowder, McKenzie, Shakir and even Kumerow sometimes giving them a lot of different talent options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
