New York Giants' asking price in Kayvon Thibodeaux trade revealed

There was some speculation that the New York Giants would trade star edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux during the 2026 NFL Draft. The New Orleans Saints were reported as the most interested suitor. 

No deal ever came to fruition, but not because the Giants weren't willing to deal, but because the Saints didn't meet their asking price. 

Giants wanted a second-round pick in exchange for Kayvon Thibodeaux

That asking price was a second-round pick, according to The Athletic's Dan Duggan. 

"The Saints were the team most interested in trading for Thibodeaux, however, according to a league source. The problem was the sides weren’t close on potential compensation," Duggan wrote.

"The Saints’ best offer is believed to have been a fourth-round pick (No. 132), while the Giants were seeking a second-round pick — the Saints had the 42nd selection."
