Pro Bowl LT Eric Fisher is signing a one-year, $9.4 million deal with the Indianapolis Colts, per source. The former No. 1 overall pick now will be Carson Wentz’s blindside protector.

I'd rather use that $13.4 million to keep Ward and it's not particularly close. If Allegretti has the kind of trade value to be the principal in a trade for a solid starting CB, I'd simply try to move him for something else.
If the Giants want Allegretti, they can send us Darius Slayton for him. Slayton would be a guy I'd be interested in working on an extension with and at worst, he walks in the offseason w/ no real harm done after playing out his final year at $2.5 million.
With Golladay, Shepard and Toney, the Giants have some WR depth they can trade from and Slayton is unlikely to look to extend there in his current role.
That deal would make a lot of sense for both sides provided that the Giants actually put that level of value on Allegretti.

I think teams will value him than Chief Fan does, but I doubt many see him as a starter. [Reply]

Solid OL that are still young bring a premium.
Agree. He was better than most (myself included) thought he would be. He’s young and can play RG or RT. He’s not elite at either, but he is good enough that a team will pay decent money for that youth and versatility. [Reply]
Who’s that dude that got a surprising deal with Houston who wore glasses and SNR loved?
Herb something, right?
Might be a similar situation. Versatility and youth got him a much bigger bag than we expected. Then he kinda sucked but that’s neither here nor there. [Reply]

Okay so the accountant looking dude that SNR loved was Herb Taylor and he did not play for the Texans or really anyone else after KC. He mostly just sucked.
The person I’m thinking of is actually Wade Smith, who signed a 4 year, $12 million deal with Houston completely out of left field.
And in fact he did NOT suck after he left. He was a good 4-year starter fro them and even made a Pro Bowl. So I completely combined two people into one there.
