I dont understand what people wanted DG to do in that situation. Pitts, Chase and Waddle were long gone before they even had a chance. The Eagles traded up for Smith to keep him from the Giants. But trading up for the player, unless a QB, has been widely criticized. The draft is a crapshoot and its better to have more picks than less. I hope nobody seriously wanted DG to trade up for Smith, right?
The top 10 went as poorly as it could have for the Giants. 3 QBs taken and all 4 skills gone before they originally picked. Trading back was the right move. Was 20 deep? Sure. But NE wasnt trading up and Washington was unlikely as well. They secured a first round pick from a team that will probably have some issues with their QB position.
I would have liked Slater or Parsons but trading back was the right decision.

I think receivers are ultra critical, but I generally agree that trading up to get one is not necessary. Julio Jones aside, I think I can stand by that sentiment pretty confidently.

My 2 favorite teams next year. Giants (obviously) and every opponent the Bears face. here’s to having the 1st and 32nd picks 😉 Yeah, lets hope its the right way though, Bears 1st pick, Giants 32nd. The other way would be awful.

My gut tells me it was the right move to move back and get that 1st from the Bears. Doesnt help much this year however. I think its just the sting of seeing Smith get jumped for to the hated Eagles right in front of us that has people flustered. Not the fact we moved back so much.

Speculation always has some truth to it. Again, how is getting top players at their position dumb? The Cowboys got their defensive player, who by all accounts they were enamored with . And got a 3rd round pick in return. The Eagles, got their receiver, knowing he would have been drafted by us at 11. Rational thinking took the night off if anyone thinks this didn’t benefit both clubs. What should the Giants have done? Draft Parsons or Slater. Take one of the best players off the board. It’s clear that the Giants didn’t value both players as much, and that their contingency plan if Smith was gone was to trade back. Because they could have gotten their top player and not gifted their rival theirs had they stayed put. What's more valuable, Smith not on the Eagles or a 3rd round pick? I'm with Morehead, honestly. The only way this makes sense is if they fear the Giants more than the Eagles, and figured if Smith was gonna go to one of the teams, Eagles was the safer one and they get the 3rd round pick. However, it's not something we could have anticipated to guarantee smith to us. We would have had to have traded up to ensure that. Trading up would have been silly. You wanna say as a fan, stay put and take parsons or slater? I can totally understand that perspective. What it does tell me is three things: 1. Giants are high on the oline players in the building and the rd 2 to 4 options. 2. They are high on their coaching overhaul for the oline and 3. They really wanted a receiver (for good reason) and Toney's gap on the board from the top guys wasn't really big, and maybe they valued the skill position player more than the backer or oline based on need. To me all of this is layered, sound strategic thinking. And we got a first round pick for next year out of it. There is no way I slice it where I think the Giants did something stupid or got fleeced. Evidence doesn't point to that at all. Perfect post. I agree 100%. Only thing that would have made me mad is if they still did what they did and Sewell was there. He wasn't so am fine with this. Toney gives them that guy they have been desperately missing at WR. Putting all your eggs in the basket on John Ross to be that Toney type guy is lunacy. This was an excellent result and now the extra first rounder next year. Beautiful! I wish we could have gotten a 3 or 4 instead of a 5 for this year but what can you do. Overall it is a great deal and result thus far imho.

I can understand some fans being a little salty last night bc they had their hopes up on players they've watched and studied for awhile and wanted on the giants, but saw them end up on other teams. How any fan can dislike this pick and the trade with the bears is beyond me. This will be a good player, and we have two first round picks next year. Great day for the giants yesterday.

I also don’t buy the Cowboys fear us more than the Eagles. We have lost more than any franchise over the past three seasons. We finally snapped a losing streak to the Cowboys that dated back to 2016. Unless, they fear offseason additions, there’s nothing to be afraid of with us. We’re on the same page of this was sound thinking on the Giants part. I believe it was Smith or trade back. They probably had a deal in place with Chicago if Smith was to be drafted before us. I am curious though how high Toney was on their big board.

Unfortunately, the Giants cant control what other teams do. The positive is that unlike the 2016 draft, they used it to their benefit and gained capital by trading back. The funny thing to me is Dallas lost out on the top CBs and just let a division rival trade ahead of another division rival for a new weapon. Dallas will need to cover Smith just as the Giants do but the Giants have the better secondary. We will see how it goes. Smith is a great talent but there are still question marks with Hurts as well.

Dallas nets an additional 3rd and 5th this year and an additional 1st and 4th next year, while sitting at 20 with plenty of good players still available. Let that sink in for a moment... Now do you still feel bad that the Giants didn't jump up to get Smith?

What I do find comforting is that the Giants didn’t panic. They had a plan, and they didn’t waver from it once a trade was made. So, to their credit they did their homework. I just would have rather of had the players I liked. Smith and Parsons are extremely talented players in our division.

So, it was a bad thing to have a plan B in place? No. I was just responding to a view that we weren't going after Smith. It was clear that Smith was who we coveted. He was one of them.

I mean, who wouldn't draft a QB in the second round after your QB just won a 2nd SB, was SB MVP and threw for almost 5k yards and 29 TDs at the age of 31. Definitely sounds like the moment to start grooming a replacement... Maybe he should apply for a job in GB.

Also, Parsons going to Dallas is still a little weird to me. I know Vander Esch has been injured, but if he comes back and is able to stay injury free(big ifs, i know) how does Parsons fit in? As much as I hate to say this, VE and J. Smith are really good. Where and how much of the field does he see? Dallas just extended J. Smith and VE still has a 5th year option Dallas can exercise if he stays healthy. Do they put him over on the strong side? Move VE there? Swap J. Smith to that side? If they find a way to have all 3 on the field...damn.

I hate the fact that Parsons went to the Cowboys because we will be watching him make plays against us for years.. Parsons was my #1 pick. I was disappointed when the trade was announced and I knew Dallas going to take him. BUT.....it's obvious that he didn't convince Judge that his "immaturity" was a thing of the past. Then I heard him speak at the podium. We may have dodged a bullet.Means nothing. Trey Lance said the word “excited.” More than I’ve heard a person use in a few sentences. Not easy to answer stupid questions in front of millions of people. Mark my words, Parsons is going to be a problem for years to come. He’s got a chip the size of Rhode Island on his shoulder.

Based on the information at hand too, if Parsons really was their only guy after surtain was off the board, pretty risky to trade behind the Giants if you're giving the Eagles Smith. Could have missed the CB and then missed their guy by doing that while giving the birds Smith. Seems silly to me. So I either call BS on Parsons being the guy the Cowboys coveted, if that were true, they would have taken him at 10, not risk him being taken by the Giants.

I think we got a pretty got return from the bears, and am looking forward to watching Toney lined up opposite to Golloway. I don't think Toney lines up opposite Golladay as much as he lines up in the slot and in the back field. Those are going to be his strengths IMO.

Here is the way I look at the 3 way wonder...
Dallas. They figured Smith was going to either the Giants or Eagles, thus staying in East no matter what. Probably rather have to go to Eagles with that team being less of a threat (likely) than Giants. They also knew that Parsons (after loss of CBs) was theirs in either spot, with the possible exception of Giants taking him at 11. So taking all that, made good sense to let Eagles jump Giants, keeping their guy and gaining a 3rd. That's a win for them.
Giants. So assuming they would have taken Smith at 11 if available, when they see he is gone plan B or C must kick in. So in my mind, I think they look at the equation (previously stated by poster here) Slater ? =/</> Toney/5th/1st and 4th next year? Hmmm. Even if you think Slater is awesome, that equation seems an easy that Slater <. That's a win for Giants.
Eagles. Most questionable of the bunch. They may have obtained their guy (and prevented Giant from doing so), but gave another 3rd this year to a rival team. Possible win for them.
Overall, not bad for a group in the worst division in the league last year...

If I was a cowboys fan, I'd be furious about that trade. Eagles as a most hated division rival and you gift them smith, to take the same guy you were gonna take at 10 after surtain and horn were gone. Doesn't make a lick of sense and never will. Howie dunked on Jerry. I'm telling you, the Cowboys don't fear Philly. They are rebuilding. They DO fear the Giants. That's why they made that trade. I doubt it had anything to do with them fearing us more than Philly. They wanted Parsons and knew Smith was going to a division rival either way. They could stay put and take Parsons or trade and get Parsons plus a 3rd rounder. Sounds like a no brainer to me.
