Iceman_NYG Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Why the hell are not we not making a push for this guy?? He would clearly be an upgrade and will help the OL tremendously. Im not hearing anything about the Giants pursuing him. Plus he comes from the Dallas school of O-linemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 His medical history scares the heck out of teams and no one is willing to trade a third/fourth for a guy who might not even play more then four games. I mean Dallas tries to ship his out before the Draft, some reports say they were practically willing to give him away for extra picks. No one wants the guy.

BlueInCanada Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Oh not to mention if you put any faith into that profootball focus grading system he was one of the worth lineman starting in the nfl despite having some of the best talent around him. I mean there's a reason why the Dallas has no problem trading the guy and replacing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 I thought he is on a 1 year 2.35 mill contract? We should probably just pick the contract up without anything to do with draft picks right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a Cowboy this year, he's been replaced and wants put via trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 Yes by Lael Collins - the Tunsil of last year. Hmm....my mistake. I thought he might come cheap. Are we looking to shore up the right side of the OL at all?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we looking to shore up the right side of the OL at all?? The difference is Collins would of been drafted if he didn't tell teams he was gonna sit out the year if he wasn't drafted in round 1. Tunsil at least kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything so stupid. Honesty I have no problem with the lack of addressing Oline. To me this year was one if the worst for FA Oline players, just trash talent who were overpaid because there was no one else. I mean the Giants have invested heavily in the Oline the last couple of years in the Draft and FA,.gonna take more then one year with the glaring holes at every position,.

We paid heavily for Baas and Schwartz, for instance, because they were the best available, not, as it turned out, because they were all that good.

Tempest Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Oh to climb into the head of Jerry Reese.... Not pushing for him probably because we are set on the offensive line. Sure he is probably better than John Jerry but is he significantly better? Then there is the hope that a young player already on the roster steps up and out plays John Jerry. That statement alone should depress you when thinking about the quality of our backup offensive linemen. Fortunately we have been injury free for the last 5 months with two exceptions and if you have made it through the first five months this year, should easily manage to remain so the next 7.

Mr. P Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 If he gets released then sure, but do we really expect a trade to go down between the Giants and the cowboys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
