NFL Rumors: NFC Contender Interested In Denver Wide Receiver

The New York Giants may have fallen in Week 8, but they remain 6-2 on the season and in strong contention for an NFC playoff spot, and although they believe their future is bright, there's a chance that they may look to improve their team in a big way in 2022 for a potential playoff run. One player that they continue to have interest in is Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, who would be a perfect fit on a team looking to fill a major void, especially after losing Sterling Shepherd for the year and moving Kadarius Toney to the Chiefs.

Around the NFC East on Trading Deadline Eve:

The Giants really want to add a WR. They called about Brandin Cooks (HOU). I'm told they like Jerry Jeudy (DEN). Cooks won't cost as much, but comes with $18M guaranteed in 2023. I doubt GM Joe Schoen would pay more than a Day 3 pick.

The only problem for New York is the asking price for Jeudy, as the Broncos would be understandable coveting a prime pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, and despite the Giants solid start to the year, they would be better off keeping their top picks to continue to grow for the future.

It's tough to see if they would be willing to meet Denver's asking price, but after a solid start to the season, the Giants may look to make a run in 2022, and that involves plenty of getting better at the trade deadline. There's other options out there, but right now, the Giants need a big play threat, and Jeudy is just that, so we will see how this plays out over the next two days.
