Giants Have Faith In Eli Manning, Open To Trading Down

Feb 28, 2018 4:47 PM

The New York Giants are open to trading down from the No. 2 overall slot in the 2018 NFL Draft.

The Giants believe Manning has several years remaining in his career.

"Are we open for business? You know, whatever," said Dave Gettleman. "Any decision I make is going to be in the best interest of the New York Football Giants. Plain and simple. So if someone makes me an offer I can't refuse, would I move back? Depends on who is there.

"Again, if there is a guy worthy of being the second pick of the draft and what we're basically saying and answering that question to the affirmative, you're drafting what you think is going to be a Hall of Fame player. So you can't get too cute about that thing."

The Browns could select a quarterback first overall, while the Broncos and Jets also have interest in a quarterback.

"It's an interesting class. All shapes, sizes. All flavors," Gettleman said. "It's like Howard Johnson's back in the day. I'm excited about meeting some of these guys here. It will be fun. Obviously we'll be busy once the combine is over visiting and you have your 30 private visits. So that will be part of the process. It's a really interesting, eclectic group."

Odell Beckham Hopeful Of Signing Extension With Giants

Feb 4, 2018 3:45 PM

Odell Beckham Jr. is hopeful of signing a contract extension with the New York Giants this offseason.

Beckham wants to make more than Antonio Brown's $17 million per season.

"Hopefully to get it done," Beckham said of his mindset about the contract issue Saturday, per NJ.com. "It's that time just to get it over with. I really want to do it so I can move past it.

"It's too much sitting around thinking, 'Where am I going to be at?' I need to know where I can start buying furniture for a house. I want to have a place set where I know, 'OK, this is home. I can always go back to home.' So it's just a little intermediate process right now. I'm sure it will get worked out."

John Mara said last week the team would "get something done at the appropriate time" when discussing Beckham's contract.
