With the way NY Giants general manager Joe Schoen operates, you never know what he might do ahead of the opening round of the 2023 NFL Draft. While plenty of fans are hoping that he uses the No. 25 overall pick on a wideout, could he trade away that selection for a veteran instead?
Over at the NFL team meetings, there's been a lot of buzz about the San Francisco 49ers potentially moving on from speedster Brandon Aiyuk. While the plan, for now, is for No. 11 to stay in San Francisco, teams are showing interest in potentially landing his services. The Giants would be wise to reach out and see what it would take to get him in East Rutherford.
#49ers have received interest in Brandon Aiyuk from teams hoping they can trade for him. But Niners intend to keep Aiyuk.

They could find themselves in a situation next offseason where they can’t afford two high end WRs (like OT this year) but those decisions will/can wait.
Could the NY Giants end up trading for Brandon Aiyuk?
Aiyuk is a game-changer, there's no doubt about that. However, it could take too much for the Giants to get him to town. Still, though, with teams showing interest in him, it could lead to San Francisco dangling him out there.
Another player to keep an eye on would definitely be Jerry Jeudy. At first, it was reported that the Broncos were looking for at least a first-round pick in exchange for him. Yeah, that's never going to happen.
However, the closer we get to the NFL Draft, the more likely it'd be for the Broncos to drop their asking price. Jeudy has long been linked with the Giants. The thought of him catching balls from Daniel Jones has a lot of fans excited. Denver is clearly shopping him. Once they come to their senses, then maybe they'll realize that a second-round pick or even a third would be enough.
Both Jeudy and Aiyuk would be huge additions for this offense. With Darren Waller and Paris Campbell being added for the aerial attack, Jones must be thrilled with what Schoen's been able to do. Danny Dimes' excitement will only skyrocket if Aiyuk or Jeudy joins the party as well.
