Both teams are looking to improve in this position. He needed CB help, I needed OL help.

I am going to open this up to the other members of the trade committee before I give an answer. At first glance, I feel like the two players at these positions is too far off. An OG with those attributes (especially an 88 RBK) is quite valuable and a 78 CB doesn't really come close. And I don't feel a 5th helps. But I will wait and see thoughts of the other members.

I'm with firedup24. The OG has some impressive run and pass blocking numbers. 88-86. The Corner only has 72 man coverage and 88 speed. The 5th round pick doesn't really mean much in terms of offsetting the difference in the players. As it stands I have to say no.

So now I'm even more confused... Why would the Giants trade Pugh with only 3 OGs on the roster when making this trade forces them to start a 72 OVR OG. And the Broncos have 3 OGs with them being 82 and 86 respectively. I vote no here. Trade doesn't make sense and puts the Giants in a bad way on the offensive line.

I'm gonna have to say no on this one. Pugh is a very good offensive lineman, something that was hard to come by if you watched the progression of the offseason. If his awareness goes up just a little he'd be mid 80's. All of his blocking stats are mid 80's while the corner being traded is no where near his level of skill and a 5th round pick is almost useless in a regular draft without creating our own rookies.

That's definitely a defining factor as well. Not really sure it makes sense to take a big piece off the Giants line and replace with that low of a player. Plus the Giants would have to sign another guard. League minimum for guards is 3
