‘Things I think’: Dave Gettleman gets “Kudos” for his first-ever trade down
GM explains how the trade back to No. 20 came about
“I’m not getting fleeced.”
That was New York Giants GM Dave Gettleman talking last week about one of the many reasons he had never made a trade down in eight previous draft with as a GM with the Giants or Carolina Panthers.
When Gettleman finally made a trade down Thursday night in his ninth draft as a GM, he definitely did not get fleeced.
After watching the four players presumably at the top of the Giants’ board, wide receivers Jaylen Waddle and DeVonta Smith and cornerbacks Patrick Surtain II and Jaycee Horn, go in the first 10 picks, Gettleman swapped places to No. 20 with the quarterback-hungry Chicago Bears.
