Until the Giants know the financial investment they must make to keep these two major cogs in the offensive machinery, all other expenditures are difficult to project.
in the offensive machinery, all other expenditures are difficult to project. The bottom line is this: Jones will be back, one way or another. Barkley’s status is very much up in the air and depends on how willing he is to not get paid as one of the top players at his position.
The Barkley negotiations have the potential to be far more uncomfortable for both sides. During the bye week, the Giants offered a contract that averaged $12.5 million on what is believed to be a three-year deal. Barkley’s camp rejected that and the team and the player at this point are not close in where they believe the new deal should fall.
If the Giants do not need to use the franchise tag on Jones, they can apply it to Barkley for $10 million in 2023, but using $10 million in cap space on a running back is not a direction the Giants seem to be headed . If Jones gets a megadeal, he, and not a running back, will be the centerpiece of the offense.
This is all about roster-building for the Giants, who need loads of help at inside linebacker, wide receiver and depth along the defensive line. They also could use a No. 1 cornerback. Allocating too much money for one running back runs counter to this. Allocating loads of cap space on a quarterback is a more sound strategy, but if the conversation with Jones starts at $40 million a year the Giants can fall back on the franchise tag.
