New York Giants urged to explore trade for CB Marlon Humphrey

Yahoo Sports

Baltimore Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey is a trade the New York Giants are once again being urged to explore.

The New York Giants were active in free agency, reshaping the roster in the first offseason under head coach John Harbaugh. They still have plenty of needs ahead of the draft and can certainly add valuable players through unsigned free agents or even via the trade market. Although the team has already stated that the offensive line is a work in progress, there are other areas of the roster that could also use an upgrade.

FOX Sports compiled a list of one trade that every NFC team should explore ahead of the NFL draft. In this potential trade for the Giants, they would add yet another former Baltimore Ravens player. Acquire: CB Marlon Humphrey from the Baltimore Ravens Cost: 2026 fourth-round pick (105th), 2027 conditional seventh-round pick The thinnest position on the Giants’ roster might be corner, where veteran Paulson Adebo has battled injuries the past two seasons, Deonte Banks has been a bust, and they’re counting a lot on the flier they took on Greg Newsome.

Humphrey, a four-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro, will be 30 and carries a $15. 25 million salary, so he might not cost more than a Day 3 pick. The Ravens will be OK in the secondary without him.

And they could make this a win-win trade if they can entice Baltimore with edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux in a blockbuster deal, too. This is not the first time the Giants have been connected to Humphrey in trade rumors. Earlier this offseason, Bleacher Report listed trade possibilities for each team and had the Giants targeting Humphrey while giving up only slightly more draft capital.
