The New York Giants are concerned about starting quarterback Daniel Jones’ future after he missed the majority of the 2023 season due to a damaged ACL. Since then, New York has conducted extensive scouting of the top quarterbacks in the upcoming draft class, as well as meetings with veteran signal-callers in free agency.
Elsewhere in the Empire State, turmoil has been developing. Following the trade of All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs, the Buffalo Bills appear to be in rebuilding mode. Could great quarterback Josh Allen be the next star to leave Buffalo?
This week on WFAN’s Evan & Tiki, co-host Evan Roberts suggested that the Giants trade for Allen as the Bills rebuild. Such a transaction would be a pipe dream come true for Giants fans, but an implausible nightmare for the Bills Mafia, who probably don’t need to worry too much.
A WFAN radio personality predicts a blockbuster trade that would send Josh Allen to the Giants.
While reacting to the Bills’ sale of Diggs, Roberts quickly suggested the blockbuster move that Giants general manager Joe Schoen should make in reaction.
“Schoen’s got to pick up the phone and ask about Josh Allen,” Roberts said to WFAN. “Why not?”
Roberts went on to describe how and why he believes such a transfer may occur:
“Josh has no toys anymore. “Josh is not happy,” Roberts stated. “Josh does not want to live in Buffalo any longer. Josh has a girlfriend who would rather shop on Fifth Avenue in New York City than waste time in Buffalo.
“Call your pal, Joe [Schoen, New York Giants general manager], and say, ‘What up’ to Josh Allen. Is he available? If you sink this ship, we have the sixth pick in the draft. We have Daniel Jones. We have other assets. “We’ll help you rebuild, and we’ll help Josh Allen.”
Could the Giants actually complete a trade for Allen?
Roberts proposes that the Giants trade the No. 6 overall choice in this year’s draft for Allen in what would be a historic transaction. However, he fails to recognize that the No. 6 choice is only the starting point in a negotiation for a player like Allen.
Allen is a perennial MVP candidate who is currently in the prime of his career. The Bills clearly regard him as an untouchable member of their roster. They recently signed him to a six-year contract worth $258 million. Allen has led Buffalo to the playoffs in each of the previous five seasons. The Bills are unlikely to consider dealing him this summer, and even if they did, the No. 6 choice in the draft would be insufficient to complete the transaction.
