Last week a report surfaced that the Giants would entertain trade offers for DE Osi Umenyiora if they were able to land DE Jason Pierre-Paul in the draft.
Giants GM: Osi Umenyiora Will Not Be Traded
Well, the Giants drafted Pierre-Paul, but they won’t be trading Umenyiora, according to Giants GM Jerry Reese.
“We’re not trading Osi,” Reese said. “You don’t even have to ask that question. I know that’s the question on everybody’s mind. ... We’re excited about having the defensive ends we have.”
Hmm...If I were the Giants GM -- and I was interested in trading Umenyiora -- the first thing I would do is publicly declare that he’s staying with the team in order to maintain leverage in any trade talks.
