The New York Giants have had issues with their offensive line with for several years, but that’s through no fault of at least two of their young stars.

Justin Pugh, a 2013 first-round pick, and Weston Richburg, a 2014 second-round pick, are each versatile and talented. In Richburg’s case, he’s arguably the best at his position league-wide.

It’s for that reason general manager Jerry Reese says the team has had internal discussions about locking them up long-term.

“Yeah, that is part of the process of what we do,” Reese told reporters on Sunday when asked if they planned to use extra cap space to lock the youngsters up. “We have had some discussion, but right now is not the time to talk about that.”

Pugh is currently entering the final deal of his rookie contract, although the Giants had previously picked up his fifth-year option. He’s slated to earn $1.57 million this season and $8.8 million in 2017. A long-term extension for Pugh could, potentially, trim that 2017 number a bit.

Richburg has two years remaining on his rookie deal, and will earn $863,000 in 2016 and $1.085 million in 2017.

Compared to other players at their positions, a long-term deal for Pugh could range between $8 million and $11.5 million annually, while Richburg is looking at between $7 million and $9 million annually.

However, depending on when negotiations with Richburg begin and how well he plays between now and then, his deal could grow to near $10 million annually, which would make him the highest-paid center in football.

However it ultimately shakes out, it would behoove the Giants to get both Pugh and Richburg locked up for the foreseeable future.
