There’s a strange irony brewing with the New York Giants. The better Kayvon Thibodeaux plays, the louder the trade whispers around him get. The former No. 5 overall pick is finally starting to deliver on his disruptive promise, dragging his name right back into the rumor mill.
Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox dropped his Week 5 Trade Big Board, listing Thibodeaux at No. 3 with the suggestion that New York should consider flipping him for a second-round pick or a starting-caliber receiver. It’s the kind of speculative cannonball built to start debates, but also raises a fair question: Why is Thibs always the first one floated when it’s time to sell?
