The New York Giants appear to be getting rid of everything on their defense that has any semblance of value. In just the past 24 hours, general manager Dave Gettleman has traded former first-round cornerback Eli Apple and big-contract nose tackle Damon Harrison, the latter of whom is among the best players at his position in the NFL. Gettleman got back in return three draft picks: one in the fourth round and one in the fifth round, both in 2019, and a seventh-rounder in 2020.
That’s practically peanuts in exchange for an Apple and some snacks.
