3 trade deadline moves the NY Giants and Joe Schoen should stay away from

2. Trading for Carolina Panthers WR D.J. Moore

From the moment Matt Rhule was fired as head coach of the Panthers, D.J. Moore trade rumors started swirling. It’s looking like the Panthers are sellers, which was made more than clear when the team traded superstar running back Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers in exchange for a boatload of picks.

Could Moore be the next stud to be shipped to a new squad? He’d be a great addition for the Giants, there’s no question about that. The only issue here is that Carolina reportedly wants multiple draft picks and the asking price could be too high for the G-Men. If the price was right, however, then sure, go get Moore.

The Giants can’t afford to overpay for someone like Moore. He’s got all the talent in the world, but NY can’t let Carolina – or anyone for that matter – body them around. Yes, the NY wide receivers room isn’t healthy, but things could look promising if Kadarius Toney and Kenny Golladay are able to return to full health.

While they can’t be trusted to consistently deliver for Daniel Jones, the hope is they’ll be hungrier than ever when they do get back on the field. That could be a major bonus for this offense, but it remains to be seen if that will be the case. Regardless, if Carolina wants to play hard ball, they can do so with someone else.
