Wan’Dale Robinson, Micah McFadden contract decisions loom before season — what it might cost Giants
NY Post
As easy as it was to say “no” to Evan Neal and “yes” to Kayvon Thibodeaux, that’s how difficult the next two decisions are for Giants GM Joe Schoen regarding his 2022 draft class.
If the Giants are interested in extending receiver Wan’Dale Robinson and linebacker Micah McFadden, then the logical time is over the next three weeks — prior to the start of their walk years.
Unlike first-round picks Neal (option declined) and Thibodeaux (option exercised) there were no fifth-year contract options available on these two starters, so their futures must be forecast now.
Robinson, 24, easily could make a case for No. 2 receiver money, and more than teammate Darius Slayton (three years, $36 million).
PORT ST. LUCIE — The Mets’ 2025 failing (one of them anyway) might be their big strength now.
The discourse has gone on for two seasons now. But it doesn’t exactly match reality.

The Rangers reconvened after the Olympic stoppage wanting to find some successful combinations that had been largely absent through much of a disappointing last-place season.

The deal that brought Aidan Thompson to the Rangers didn’t create the ripple effects that the Artemi Panarin trade did because of who departed the organization. That was only Derrick Pouliot, a 32-year-old defenseman more than two years removed from his last NHL game. It didn’t create the waves like one for, say, Vincent Trocheck, would have because of current NHL players or draft capital the Blueshirts received in return, either.
