The New York Giants skip quarterback Abdul Carter’s injury causes a stir in the NFL Combine’s 2025 mock draft.
They won’t get Cooper Kupp or Matthew Stafford, but the New York Giants could be able to sign Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams instead, especially in light of the most recent information on the latter.
According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Adams was placed on the trading block on Sunday, March 2, but he will be released if the New York Jets are unable to find a partner to trade with.
The Giants should be interested in having a receiver of Adams’ caliber available. Especially considering where former Green Bay Packers teammate Rodgers plays football in 2025 may determine where he goes next.
Last season, Adams followed his quarterback to the Jets, and the 41-year-old passer will soon be available for purchase. The Giants would be less hurt by losing out on Stafford if they signed Rodgers.
Despite Big Blue’s rumored interest, the latter remained with the Los Angeles Rams. Although Stafford may have brought Kupp, a wide receiver and fellow trade chip, to MetLife Stadium, a Rodgers and Adams double act would have been equally effective.
“People were thinking Stafford + Kupp, but the Giants can add Rodgers + Davante & it comes at no draft cost,” said Dan Schneier of CBS Sports. The $$ is not a concern for me. There is a lot of short-term cap flexibility for the team. At three, leaves also make room for QB. Adams, Nabers, and Rodgers. There are worse ideas out there.
