5. New York Giants

The New York Giants could be a sneaky team as far as a squad that will be looking to add to its offense going into the 2020 campaign this season. On the offensive side of the ball, the Giants are an intriguing team that is led by young quarterback Daniel Jones and star running back Saquon Barkley.

The only thing that is still missing in New York within the offense though is a stud wide receiver to pair with that duo. That alone could persuade the Giants to look into Stefon Diggs as an option in that role via the trade market.

Since the departure and trade of wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who is now in Cleveland with the Browns, New York hasn’t really had a star wide receiver featured within its offense.

Diggs could step into that role immediately and provide the offense with a nice balance of both a potent passing game and a dominant running game led by Barkley and company. The other intriguing part of this would be that Diggs is still young enough that the Giants could build around the trio of Jones, Barkley and Diggs for multiple seasons.

During the 2019 season, New York contained wide receiving targets of Sterling Shepard, Cody Latimer and Golden Tate, along with dominant tight end target Evan Engram. But the addition of a star wide receiver like Diggs could further propel that offense and help take things to the next level in New York. His personality would fit well in the Big Apple as well.

One team to watch as far as a potential landing spot if Diggs is traded by Minnesota this offseason could very well be New York.
