Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsWe are deep in the heart of the silliest part of the NFL’s silly season with less than seven hours (as of this writing) remaining until the 2019 NFL Draft opens. We are likely about eight hours away from the New York Giants making their first selection of the draft. But rather than diving back into the “will they or won’t they?” of the draft prospects, let’s take some time out for some truly wild draft speculation. Could the Giants trade for Arizona Cardinals All-Pro cornerback Patrick Peterson? And quarterback Josh Rosen? In one big, crazy trade?Giants’ cornerback Janoris Jenkins is already campaigning to try and make the Peterson move happen.As much heat as the Giants’ seven took for their lack of a pass rush last year, as our own Dan Pizzuta has pointed out, the Giants’ depleted secondary played a big role in their defensive failures. Adding a player like Peterson would be an immediate infusion of talent, and talent that already knows James Bettcher and has played well under him. It’s worth noting that most of the Giants’ defensive additions over the last year or so have been former Cardinals with whom Bettcher is familiar. Oh, and the Giants did just free up $5 million in cap space this year by restructuring Kevin Zeitler’s contract. Adding another layer of fatigue is this from Charles Robinson from Yahoo! news: But wait, weren’t the Giants going to trade for QB Josh Rosen? Well, Giants’ great Carl Banks has a way for the Giants to get both players.Earlier Thursday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter said that the only two teams the Cardinals have had real talks with about Rosen have been the Miami Dolphins and the Giants. Schefter added that the Cardinals and Dolphins haven’t talked “in a couple days,” but inferred that the Giants and Cardinals have been in more recent contact, saying that the Giants “are waiting to see where and how the draft falls.” Dave Gettleman as much as said that he will not be making 12 selections over the next three days and that he will be making trades. He also said “No guts, no glory” with respect to finding the Giants’ next franchise quarterback. Trading for Josh Rosen and Patrick Peterson would certainly be a gutsy move.Would you have the guts to make the deal Carl Banks proposed? EAST RUTHERFORD https://www.giantsfanshop.com/hats , N.J. (AP) — Giants rookie quarterback Kyle Lauletta apologized Tuesday morning, a week after he was arrested for motor vehicle violations near his home in Weehawken, N.J."First things first, I want to apologize to the New York Giants organization, my teammates, the fans and my family," Lauletta said. "The incident that happened last week is a terrible representation of who I am and what I stand for. Right is right and wrong is wrong. My parents raised me better than that."According to Weehawken police accounts, Lauletta, the Giants' fourth-round pick from Richmond, was driving his 2017 Jaguar on Tuesday morning, Oct. 30, when he was stopped for failing to obey a police officer's order to continue driving straight. The report says Lauletta almost hit a police officer while making an illegal turn. He was stopped by a second police officer and refused to produce a driver's license or exit the car.The incident happened close to renovations near the Lincoln Tunnel, which connects New Jersey with midtown Manhattan.Police say he was arrested and charged with eluding police, obstructing administration of law and resisting arrest. He was also charged with reckless driving New York Giants Hoodie , disregarding an officer's directions, improper turn and failure to remain in a marked lane.Police said Lauletta's car was involved in a similar incident Monday, but summons were mailed because the vehicle did not stay at the scene.The Giants were on their bye week, so he did not have to report to any organized practices until Tuesday.After practice, Lauletta said he was apologetic about the incident."I understand the cops have a very tough job and it was very chaotic at that location," Lauletta said. "I respect these officers and I can't say that I'm sorry enough. I have to prove myself worthy through my work ethic and put it all behind me. That's all I can control and I hope to move forward from this."Giants coach Pat Shurmur said that Lauletta will not face any suspension for his actions."It's being handled internally," Shurmur said. "I'm very disappointed with the way it went down. I spoke to Kyle and this is not the way we want our players to act. The whole incident is disappointing. He's back to work today and we'll deal with it."Shurmur said that Lauletta's problems with the police stemmed from him being late for meetings prior to practices both Monday and Tuesday."The way I look at it, quarterbacks should be early," Shurmur said. "He's working to be in a position to play. There is a lot to learn in order to prepare to play in the NFL."Lauletta said that he immediately spoke with Shurmur after his arrest."I know he was disappointed and I know I can't put myself in that situation again," Lauletta said. "I have to deal with the consequences."In other quarterback news, Shurmur also said that Eli Manning will remain the starter for Monday night's game against the San Francisco 49ers."He's starting Monday with the idea that he is going to get us on a run here and win some games," said Shurmur, whose team is 1-7.Veteran Alex Tanney has been listed as the No. 2 quarterback on the Giants' depth chart all season. There was a possibility Lauletta would be given the opportunity to start a few games once the Giants were out of playoff contention. Now, Lauletta's chances to start have greatly diminished with this arrest."The first thing I thought of was that I was leaving (home) later that I should have Deandre Baker Jersey ," Lauletta said. "It's my fault. I will take this as a lesson. I can't put myself in these situations moving forward. I don't know if I'm worried about (not getting the chance to play). I can't afford to worry about it. I just have to do everything I can to prove that I can play. I'm going to give it everything I have, keep my head down and keep moving forward."Lauletta said that he did not want to "talk about the details of the incident," especially after he was asked about going through the same traffic pattern illegally two days in a row."I was wrong," Lauletta said. "I know that. It's a horrible feeling. I stand with what happened. I made a decision I'll regret for the rest of my life. I have to show up early every day from now on. Hopefully, this all will be part of my past and I'll never allow what happened to happen ever again. I woke up late and put myself in that situation."Lauletta said that he has spoken with Manning about the incident."Eli has always been supportive of me," Lauletta said. "He's there for me. Right now, my goal, my main focus is to help Eli."NOTES: The Giants announced that rookie defensive tackle R.J. McIntosh, the team's fifth-round draft pick out of Miami, has been cleared to play and will be activated in time to play Monday night. A roster spot will have to be created for McIntosh, who has been on the team's non-football illness list. McIntosh's illness has yet to be addressed. … Shurmur also said that offensive guard Jamon Brown, acquired via waivers from the Los Angeles Rams last week, will more than likely be activated and see action. Brown could actually be a starter at guard if he can learn quickly in practice this week.
