They need to find a way to keep him without over paying him. When he is healthy he is a monster and is a very big asset to have on offense. I doubt anyone gives up much more than a 3rd for him though as his injuries have really taken him down a peg.

Well this depends on how you view the Giants long term. Obviously 0-5 is a terrible start, and they have a very good chance at a top 10 or top 5 pick. Are the Giants in position to sign him long term and continue to build on there team? I know Eli has a huge salary next season, Cruz has a fairly big salary, Antrell Rolle has a fairly big salary. Usually teams arnt good long term when they have 3 or 4 players taking up the majority of there salary cap. Realistically you arnt going to get more than a mid round draft pick for a player in this situation. I think most teams looking to trade for him would be looking at him as a 1 year rental, and then would consider resigning him during the offseason. There really arnt a lot of contenders that I can think of that would be willing to make this trade. I guess if you can get rid of him, and get a mid round pick go for it. Honestly the Giants may want to consider taking any offer they can get. I just dont see him being there long term, with 1 receiver already locked up to a big deal. Actually I can see Baltimore in league for a WR. They aren't really a contender right now, but they still can make the playoffs in the weak division (as it stands now). Philly also could use another WR as a depth signing / potential starter to pull pressure off of DJax. I forgot about Baltimore. I could see that happening, although that really would be 1 year rental because I dont see them being able to afford him this offseason. I guess the Eagles are technically tied for first in there division. I could see that as a fit, but would the Giants consider trading him in division? Usually in division trades are worth a draft pick 1 round higher.

I'm sure if they offered fair value this year and a compensation pick next they could get the Giants to budge, but they would need more than other teams.

I can tell ya this, H.Nicks will not sign for anything less than what they gave to Cruz. I've seen some crazy stuff happen in the NFL but if Nicks is traded it will not be to a team in their division. Nick's has had some problems the last couple years with injuries,but seems to be okay so far this year. There are teams who could use a WR like Nicks, they need to put it out there and see what kind of responses they get from other teams. Plax I agree the Giants need help on offense & defense, they should be able to get some good value out of Nicks. Teams go through this every year with players, Randle has shown he has the talent it's time to let him show what he's got. Sure they may miss Nicks if they trade him or let him walk but as they say next man up....
