NY Giants football: Top 3 trade down scenarios from #4 Overall
By Ross O'Keefe
Giants Receive: Jaguars first-round pick No. 9, Jaguars first-round pick No. 20
Jaguars Receive: Giants first-round pick No. 4, Giants fourth-round pick No. 110
Trade Net Value: +326 draft points
The NY Giants make the riskiest trade with the most reward yet here, as they nab an extra first-round pick. This scenario likely requires Tua Tagovailoa to fall to four, which will happen provided no one trades ahead of the Giants, which may be unlikely.
The reason this is the riskiest trade is that some value will come off the board before the Giants pick at nine, unlike the past two trades. So they may have to settle for their second choices in Louisville offensive tackle Mekhi Becton or Georgia tackle Andrew Thomas.
Grabbing another first-round pick gives them a great opportunity to grab a player like Lousiana State University pass-rusher K’Lavon Chaisson without reaching. A theoretical first-round mix of Becton and Chaisson is a very nice early duo with a second-round pick still incoming.

The Giants have a lot of needs, and this trade would help fill the two most important ones.
