The upcoming offseason will promise to provide entertainment in abundance with no shortage of star quarterbacks potentially swapping uniforms in pursuit of greener pastures. No storyline may be worth following with a greater sense of wonder than the future of Seattle Seahawks franchise quarterback Russell Wilson.

Rumors swirled months ago regarding Wilson potentially wanting out of Seattle ahead of the 2021 campaign, and Seattle's current form has likely done little to nothing to change his mind. The 4-8 Seahawks appear poised to miss the postseason for the first time since 2009, and sweeping changes are likely on the way. Those changes could include a blockbuster deal involving Wilson.

According to a report from Jordan Schultz, Wilson would be willing to waive his no-trade clause in order to help facilitate a trade to one of three teams: the New York Giants, Denver Broncos, and New Orleans Saints.

Although the Broncos should easily represent the most appealing destination on paper, given their excellent group of skill position players, the Giants will find themselves in the best spot to make a remarkable offseason move for Wilson. Should Seahawks general manager John Schneider admit defeat on his attempt to salvage the organization's relationship with Wilson and become open to moving his Super Bowl champion and eight-time Pro Bowl quarterback, the Seahawks’ general manager will undoubtedly seek several first-round picks in return for Wilson's services. The Giants currently own not one, but two 2022 premium first-round selections. The Giants of course possess their own pick, which is currently seventh overall and will likely remain in that range based on their continued underwhelming performances and injuries at the quarterback position. New York also owns Chicago's first-round pick, which as of now is set to be the sixth-overall selection.

A pair of top-10 picks in the 2022 NFL Draft equips the Giants with the ammo necessary to acquire Wilson and serves as an excellent conversation starter with Schneider. Seattle would likely request at least another intriguing mid-round pick in exchange for Wilson and whoever the Giants’ general manager will be (it won’t be Dave Gettleman) will have 11 picks in 2022 to work with. The Giants are currently scheduled to own a pair of third-rounders in 2022, due in part to a 2021 draft-day trade with the Dolphins that allowed Miami to move up in order to draft former Notre Dame offensive tackle Liam Eichenberg. One (or both) of these selections may be of particular intrigue as the sweetener should trade talks commence.

The Giants' offense has largely been a mess all throughout 2021, but replacing below-average starter Daniel Jones with Wilson would help the unit take a considerable step forward. Although they've been underwhelming, the potential to work with the likes of Kenny Golladay, Saquon Barkley, Kadarius Toney, and Sterling Shepard may be enough to draw Wilson to the Big Apple. All four players are talented offensive weapons and are under contract for 2022.

There's always a downside that must be recognized. The Giants could undeniably use their plethora of draft picks to upgrade an offensive line that has been in shambles for several seasons now. Gettleman has poured resources into the offensive line to no avail, and the Giants require several upgrades across the starting five. Wilson is no stranger to playing behind below-average pass protection, but it's one hang-up worth mentioning. Acquiring Wilson would rob the Giants of the majority of the resources that could reasonably be used to beef up their front, but the quarterback position is ultimately king and the Giants should remain steadfast in their hopes of acquiring a franchise-altering signal-caller.

Acquiring a quarterback of Wilson's talents would be undeniably expensive. New York has what it takes to see it through.
