Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
The Giants traded up six spots in the 2013 fourth round for quarterback Ryan Nassib, sending Arizona picks No. 116 and No. 187. Nassib remained a reserve behind Eli Manning and started no regular-season games for New York. The Cardinals turned the return into lineman Earl Watford and running back Andre Ellington, who became an explosive multi-year offensive contributor. Arizona’s two-player return clearly surpassed the Giants’ backup-quarterback value.
Trade 2 of 2
The Giants sent picks 116 and 187 to Arizona to move up six spots in the 2013 fourth round for quarterback Ryan Nassib. Nassib spent four seasons as Eli Manning's backup but barely played. Arizona selected guard Earl Watford and running back Andre Ellington, who became one of the Cardinals' most productive offensive players for several seasons. The Cardinals clearly received more usable value from the two selections.
