Is it time for the New York Giants to make a significant move under the leadership of general manager Joe Schoen and head coach Brian Daboll?

Maurice Moton of Bleacher Report appears to believe so, having recently proposed a blockbuster trade for Buffalo Bills superstar wide receiver Stefon Diggs on February 5. The hypothetical pitch to send Pro Bowl defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence to the AFC East rival for the six-time 1,000-yard wide out is detailed below.

This speculation arises from Diggs’ remarks during the 2024 Pro Bowl Games, in which the $96 million playmaker expressed concern about his future in Buffalo.

Moton’s package above is a bold notion, but the NFL writer supported it with ample facts. He went on to explain “a few reasons or motives” for why Big Blue may seek to acquire Diggs in 2024.

Daboll and Diggs had a successful partnership with the Bills in northern New York. Would the same chemistry carry over to the New York City area?

“First and foremost, the Giants desperately need help in the passing game,” Moton stated after breaking down the plan. “Neither of their pass catchers finished the 2023 season with more than 60 receptions or four receiving touchdowns. Wide receiver Darius Slayton led the club in receiving yards (770).

He went on to say that “New York may have whiffed on its trade with the Las Vegas Raiders for tight end Darren Waller, who caught 52 passes for 552 yards and a touchdown in his first year with the Giants.” And according to ESPN, “quarterback Daniel Jones will go into the second term of his four-year, $160 million contract that includes $81 million in guaranteed money.”

“Assuming the Giants continue to build around Jones with the costly investment in him, they must add a high-level pass-catcher,” Moton said. “Daboll is familiar with Diggs from his time as the Buffalo Bills’ offensive coordinator from 2018 to 2021.” Diggs won his first and only All-Pro nod in 2020 while Daboll was the Bills’ playcaller.
