The New York Giants Should Go Get Jaylen Smith

The Dallas Cowboys surprisingly cut their start Middle Linebacker, Jaylen Smith. Dave Gettleman should go and get him.

Jaylen Smith will be guaranteed 7 million dollars this season, that the Cowboys would have to either pay if no one gets him, or pay the difference in what he gets picked up for. So if The Giants pay him 1.5 million for the rest of the season, Dallas would owe him 5.5 million.

Smith going to The Giants makes sense for both parties; The Giants need help in the run defense that Jaylen could provide. Jaylen can go to a franchise that is a big rival to the Cowboys and potentially play against them twice before the season is over. Jaylen Smith is an absolute liability in pass defense, but he also had 4 tackles short of 300 in the last two season. He also hits holes hard and does not allow Yards After Contact, something the Giants have struggled with all year and will only get worse without Martinez.
