NEW YORK — Giants GM Joe Schoen stayed put at Tuesday’s NFL trade deadline for the right reasons.
Prices were too high on the players he was aiming to acquire. And his team’s 6-2 start has not moved Schoen off his realistic evaluation of the Giants as a long-term rebuild.
“You have to step back and honestly evaluate the roster,” Schoen said Tuesday afternoon at the team facility in East Rutherford. “You can’t get caught up in the, ‘Hey, we won the game.’ Yeah, but we were also down 17-3 in the game at some point. You gotta step back and look at it for what it is.”
