The latest 'Hard Knocks' showed what GM Joe Schoen told Saquon Barkley ahead of free agency and New York's thoughts to move up in the draft.
New York Giants general manager Joe Schoen wanted to keep Saquon Barkley, but he also wanted to make sure he wasn't paying him too much relative to the running back market. The second episode of 'Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants' detailed how Schoen approached contract negotiations with Barkley once the team ruled out franchise-tagging him for a second straight year.
75 million deal with $26 million guaranteed with the Philadelphia Eagles when free agency opened. The episode didn't show whether the Giants had a chance to match the offer or not. Much of the second episode was focused on the Giants' approach to evaluating and interviewing prospects at the combine.
