[size=7]Giants in trade talks for Browns' tackle [/size] Tuesday, May 1st 2007, 4:00 AM The Giants have two options at left tackle this season, David Diehl or Guy Whimper. But they haven't ruled out adding a third. During the draft over the weekend, they had discussions with the Browns about trading for Cleveland's starting left tackle last season, Kevin Shaffer. The Browns called the Giants soon after drafting Wisconsin tackle Joe Thomas with the third pick in the first round, according to a league source, but the Giants felt the price - reportedly a fourth-round pick - was way too high for a player entering just the second year of a six-year, $36.5 million deal. If the Browns' asking price goes down, talks for the 27-year-old Shaffer could be revived. The Giants have been looking for a veteran left tackle since they cut Luke Petitgout in February. So far they've been reluctant to move Diehl from left guard, and on Sunday both GM Jerry Reese and Tom Coughlin indicated that Whimper, last year's fourth-round pick, has had a good offseason and is now a candidate, too. "There are still some things that we can do at left tackle," Reese said Sunday. "But right now if we had to go we would go with who we have." I'd rather we talk about getting Joe Thomas... LOL |
