Re: Rumours: Ravens offer a third round pick for Osi
What do they need cap space for? Who is it they have to sign? It's true that the comp pick would be in 2014 but if any player has a shot at a 3rd round comp pick it's Osi who will get good money and produces a ton of sacks. The only possible reason the Giants would trade Osi would be if they got a deal they couldn't refuse.

Re: Rumours: Ravens offer a third round pick for Osi
Jerry Reese holds all of the cards and isn't going to move Osi unless it's a deal that they can't refuse.
In fact, Osi and his agent can spout off all they want. They did the same thing last year and the year before IIRC. Jerry Reese and Tom Coughlin didn't blink and they got a SB out of it.
I doubt they move him at all. They don't have to.Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Re: Rumours: Ravens offer a third round pick for Osi
They will need cap space as they will want to sign Cruz ASAP before his price goes through the roof and if they trade him now they get a pick in 2013 vs 2014. There may be some other players they need to sign as well who have expiring contracts.
My only concern is that Osi does not fit our system and we have young guys who have shown that they can play.

Re: Rumours: Ravens offer a third round pick for Osi
Has Jerry Reese ever panicked or screwed up his cap? He's the best GM in the NFL. Why do you think they set up Eli's contract the way they did? Every time they need cap space all they have to do is restructure. It's exactly what the Steelers do with Ben. The only difference is that the Giants pretty much only do it with Eli so they never get into a horrible cap situation while the Steelers do it with many players.
If Reese had to move Osi he'd be actively shopping him which he isn't but I'm sure he'll listen to all offers. The NY media is enormous. It's by far the largest in the country. They talk and print every possibility. Tim Tebow had over 100 media just at his locker day last week. Just because they say this was offered does not mean there is any truth to it.
