Giants fake NFL Draft trade sends Twitter into hysteria
NY Post
With the 2021 NFL Draft on Thursday, it’s that time of year when fake accounts conjure up trades that send social media into a frenzy.
What happened Monday morning was one of the more bizarre and successful instances of a phony trade making the rounds on Twitter. A fake announcement from what looked to be the Chargers’ Twitter account said the team was packaging a third-round pick (No. 77 overall) with the 13th selection to the Giants in order to move up to No. 11. While trades do happen before draft night, the timing of this one would have been curious considering nobody has any idea who will be available at No. 11 vs. No. 13. A trade like this from Los Angeles would usually be done with a particular player in mind.More Related News
