The Giants do run a 3-4 and need depth at OLB. But it doesn't seem that Barwin has much left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKTexans Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 He had a few good and a couple very good seasons. I guess he's a solid rotation/camp body guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're expecting him to play starter snaps, you're going to have a bad time. Get him as part of a rotation/situational pass rush, he could be valuable.

Shanedorf Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Here's the full list of NYGs with more sacks than Connor Barwin over the last 2 seasons 1) Olivier Vernon JPP did better than Barwin in 2016, but he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EaglesPeteC Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 One of my favorite Eagles has to sully his good name by signing with the NFCE basement dwellers. Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not worth the contract he was getting and not an ideal fit in a 4-3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, it's funny, for whatever reason I always did confuse those two players (Barwin and Reed), and I have no idea why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmen Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 He's always been a thorn in the Giants side. The Giants are going to be doing a lot of rotation at OLB this year in the 3-4. Vernon will have one side locked down, but Barwin will rotate with rookie Lorenzo Carter and Kareem Martin who played for Bettcher in Arizona.

frenchie Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Surprised Barwin had to wait this long; Looking at the Giants' roster, he should easily take the OLB spot opposite Vernon, unless they put him at DE, again though, not much competition there either.
