Russell Wilson in the big apple helping the NY Giants return to glory. The storyline is almost too good to be true.

A trade for Wilson would cost the Giants nearly all their draft capital, plus more.

In order to get the 32-year old quarterback, they would have to be willing to part with multiple first and second-round picks and at least 2-3 starters.

But, could a trade package that mortgages your whole future be worth it for Wilson?

In the past decade, he has been one of the most prolific quarterbacks in the NFL. He elevates the players around him and can utilize everyone on the field. He flourishes when given time and thrives off of using playaction.

An offense built around Wilson, with other explosive pieces such as Saquon Barkley and Kadarius Toney could be what finally allows this offense to become modern. The gamble on Wilson would be huge, and there’s no guarantee that it would work out. But adding a playmaker of this caliber to this poster would make the Giants must-watch TV. And perhaps even drag the franchise out of its recent doldrums, back to respectability.
