Cards get a decent backup for Murry. Giants can move on and start anew with a rookie.

The only catch is that the Cards pick at 4, so the Giants could not be guaranteed to get one of the three QBs there . . .

So close.

What about something like-

Cards acquire Wilson, Jeudy and a Broncos 2nd for a 5th. The Broncos eat some amount of his guaranteed money(20 mil?) but not all of it. Wilson gets 2-3 million additional to accept the trade with the understanding he will be subsequently traded to a team of his choice. Arizona then gets a conditional 2025 4th for warehousing 20 mill or so retained salary on him in a trade when they ship him to Pitts or Min. Pick upgrades 1 round for Playoffs and elevates 1 more round for each playoff victory.

Cards end up with a usable WR, a second and an upside 2025 pick for 32 mil or so in cap space.
