Message: [QUOTE="intlzncster, post: 2703208, member: 56"] I've no inside info on that, but I've zero doubt a team would never admit they could have traded. 'we had no choice' is normal cover for these sorts of things. I don't think any of us could know exactly what was on offer, or if the Giants priced it too high to begin with. I mean you got a great player, but you'll be sacrificing on the Oline/Dline/backfield etc to pay him. When all those positions are far more important than running back in the modern game. There's a lot of what ifs. If he gets hurt, you're cooked. In order to meet the salary requirements, you need to hit multiple homeruns in the Draft at those other positions over the next few years. Which is next to impossible without a run of fantastic luck. It will be fascinating to watch it all play out over the next few years. That's the thing that's most interesting about football imo.
