On top of the intrigue of the sixth overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, the Giants have a lot of decisions to be made of the current NFL roster. The Giants are going to need to clear up some cap space for offseason additions, especially if general manager Dave Gettleman wants to keep $8-$10 million freed up for the regular season as he told reporters at the combine. With about $28 million in cap space now, per Over The Cap Eli Manning Color Rush Jersey , and around $11 million needed to sign the draft class, that doesn’t leave a lot of money to spend elsewhere.That left the impression cuts and restructures are likely to come. The problem is the Giants do not have a lot of outlets to move money around and only few contracts allow cap space to be freed. One of them belongs to Olivier Vernon and a report from NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo suggests the Giants are exploring trades for the pass rusher.Vernon has been a polarizing player for the Giants since he signed his massive five-year/$85 million contract with $40- million guaranteed in 2016. Between injuries and a lack of sacks, many believe Vernon has not lived up to that deal, though it could and should be argued his value is more than just sack numbers.Trading Vernon before June 1 would free up $11.5 million with $8 million left in dead money. If kept, he is set to have a $19.5 million cap hit in 2019. The trade would free up $15.5 million in cap space with $4 million in dead money if it takes places post June 1. If traded Connor Barwin Color Rush Jersey , Vernon would count as just a $15.5 million cap hit over the next two seasons with no guaranteed money left on his deal.A Vernon trade might be more appealing for other teams after a potential deep group of free agent edge rushers becomes more shallow. Top players like Demarcus Lawrence and Dee Ford are not expected to hit the open market and earlier on Friday, the Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a new contract with Brandon Graham.The Giants would not have an easy time replacing Vernon’s production on a defense that was not as bad as perceived at creating pressure against opposing quarterbacks last year.There will surely be more to come over the next few weeks. There are scenarios where that could happen"WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections New York Giants NewsGiants Training Camp 2016Giants vs. Eagles 2015, Week 172019 NFL DraftCould Alabama DT Quinnen Williams fall to Giants at No. 6?New,118commentsThere are scenarios where that could happenEDTShareTweetShareShareCould Alabama DT Quinnen Williams fall to Giants at No. 6?Quinnen WilliamsMatthew Emmons-USA TODAY SportsCould Alabama defensive lineman Quinnen Williams, generally considered one of the two best defensive players in the 2019 NFL Draft class Saquon Barkley Color Rush Jersey , really land with the New York Giants with the No. 6 overall pick? It’s not as far-fetched as you might think.Here is what I wrote last Sunday about that possibility: Let’s expand on that a little bit. In a scenario where Murray goes No. 2, Bosa goes second and a team trades up with the Jets at No. 3 for Dwayne Haskins or Drew Lock, the Raiders should probably snag Williams at No. 4. That’s what SB Nation’s mock draft database expects Mike Mayock and Jon Gruden to do. Does anyone, though, really know what Oakland will do? They are a wild-card. Maybe they take Williams. Maybe they take edge Josh Allen as a Khalil Mack replacement. Maybe they trade out of there.Truthfully Sterling Shepard Color Rush Jersey , at this point the third and fourth spots in the upcoming draft are completely unpredictable.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers at No. 5 are expected to take linebacker Devin White. SB Nation’s mock database leans that way, and a well-connected scout told me recently that the Bucs are “locked in” on White.So, no, it’s not unrealistic to think Williams could find his way to the Giants at 6.
