GIANTS MIGHT DECIDE TO TRADE OSI UMENYIORA

"According to ESPN’s John Clayton, even though the New York Giants are talking
about extending Osi Umenyiora’s contract, it’s still not out of the question
that he could end up being traded. I believe the Giants will try to work out a
way to compensate Umenyiora for his stellar play over the past few seasons, but
he might have to wait a couple of months as the Giants work on getting under the
salary cap for 2012. They’re currently $9 million over the cap and have quite a
few free agents to sign. At the end of teh daay, I don’t see the Giants trading
Umenyiora since he has one year left on his current deal. He also realized that
holding out last season wasn’t the answer, so he might just quietly play out his
contract and then move on.

9 MILLION OVER!!!?? As it sits we can't: Sign rookies, re-sign any of our FAs, can't bring in any new FAs.......do we have to have 53 men on the roster? Can we play with say 40?

Please do something so we can stop talking about this lol. Has been going on for years.

I want to keep him -- he's inexpensive for 1 more year.

BUT, it would be nice to get some picks for him especially considering our cap problems now and probably for the next few years.

I can understand either way JR wants to go.

It's an exaggerated figure. We still have cuts and restructures to do.

Listening to Sirius today they where saying that teams already know what they have to do. I trust Reese has been working on this since the day after the Super Bowl and maybe even before it.

I could see Osi being traded and also possibly cutting Jacobs and Diehl. There will be other cuts and restructuring as well.

Could be a lot worse. The Raiders are like $43 million over the cap and only have 2 late round picks in the draft.

Why is the end of "Umenyiora" in the thread title censored?
