We all feel the same way. We traded away one of the most valuable assets in the NFL for what seems like peanuts.
This is my alternate view point:
What if Gettleman and Shumur looked at the last 4 games and decided the Giants can score without Odell? Scores for the last 4 games of the season:
40-16 W
0-17 L
27-28 L
35-36 L
Minus the 0-17 loss to the Titans the Giants were able to move the ball without Odell. If they proved they can be productive without him while having a shaky right side of the offensive line, why not listen to trade offers? With Odell the Giants wouldn’t be good enough to compete for a Superbowl so why not get assets so the Giants can build through the draft and get ready for 2020? They’ll have a ton of cap space in 2020 with Eli coming off the books, the makings of a pretty good offensive line and whoever they draft in 2019. There’s a chance the Giants aren’t in a long rebuild. Maybe its not all bad. What say you?
