Giants’ possibility of getting Matthew Stafford gaining steam | NJ.com

During a media availability Thursday ahead of next week’s scouting combine, NFL Network analyst Daniel Jeremiah was asked about the quarterback situations for the Giants and Jets. He mentioned Ward and Sanders but also discussed the potential availability of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford.

“There has been a lot of chatter in talking to guys around the league with the Stafford stuff,” Jeremiah said. “I don’t know if there’s legs to it, but I know that it has got a lot of people in personnel departments and general managers intrigued in seeing what’s going to transpire there with him and the Rams. The fact that they didn’t just come out and say he’s not going anywhere has led people to believe that that’s a possibility.”

Enter Cam Ward, a dynamic playmaker with a cannon for an arm. Ward produced 31 big-time throws in 2024 alone, surpassing Jones’ four-year total in a single season. His 31.5% positive throw rate ranked second in the nation, showcasing his ability to push the ball downfield. While he still needs refinement, Ward brings the spark and explosiveness the Giants have been missing at quarterback.

Would Rams really trade Matthew Stafford to Giants? Examining a potential deal | The Athletic

The Athletic’s Rams beat writer Jourdan Rodrigue discusses what the Rams would be looking for if they trade Matthew Stafford:

They don’t have a second-round pick in 2025 because they used it to trade up last year for Braden Fiske. They also don’t like where they’re sitting in the first round (No. 26); GM Les Snead refers to picking in the 20s as “purgatory.”

In a deal for Stafford, acquiring a pick high enough to package and move up for a top receiver or offensive lineman, or acquiring enough picks to package together to go after a few need positions would probably be worth listening to. In this case, I look less at that tasty No. 3 overall pick and more at No. 34 (and then some) … though you’ve got to at least ask, right?!
