Of course ESPN's idea is to trade Kayvon Thibodeaux.

A year ago, I suggested that the Giants should trade away Thibodeaux. They didn't do it, so I'm going to suggest it again. The Giants plan to play rookieArvell Reeseas the weakside linebacker, but they certainly could move him down to an edge position some of the time. Along withBrian BurnsandAbdul Carter, that gives them a lot of flexibility at the position.

Thibodeaux is now in the final year of his contract, and the Giants could get some draft capital for him now instead of waiting. If they keep Thibodeaux this season, they also then need to stay out of next year's free agent market to make sure they could get a compensatory pick when Thibodeaux inevitably leaves. Given how many teams need another pass rusher - check out the NFC North below - the Giants could build more for their future by sending Thibodeaux elsewhere.

For the Giants, it is Malik Nsbers' health.

Nabers tore his ACL during quarterback Jaxson Dart's first career start last September. And after clean-up surgery in the spring to remove scar tissue, the third-year receiver's status remains uncertain for the start of the season. Nabers' availability and production are integral to Dart's development as New York's hopeful franchise quarterback.
