Bballbkd Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 A much needed thread. Post players, positions of need and even cuts from the team. Four lineman I want to see us go after: Ju'waun James, RT, Miami Nate Solder, LT, Patriots Alex Boone, guard, Cardinals Norwell, lg, Carolina All could be huge upgrades for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all-in on Andrew Norwell- not only would he be the cornerstone of a great line, but he hasn't missed a game in 2 years, contrary to the oft-injured Pugh and Richburg. One caveat: Nate Solder, being the only left tackle available in free-agency, is going to be offered a contract by somebody in excess of the Gross National Product of Luxembourg- especially after the impact that Andrew Whitworth had for the Rams last year. And I feel that this will be a monstrous overpayment. Nate Solder is a guy I once wanted the Giants to draft, and he's been a good NFL left tackle. Now, however, he's already on the downside of his career; this would be a classic case of paying for past performance, rather than future returns. Someone's going to make a cap-crippling mistake on this former good player- I just hope it's not the Giants. Good idea- the O-line in free-agnecy- otherwise.

Bballbkd Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 Solder is my least favorite of those four as well. But like you said... Only LT available. I'd rather get 4/5th of the line set up with norwell/Brett Jones/Hernandez/James (or Cappa) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMENNATION Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Doug Martin available now. I'd give him a prove it contract to have some veteran experience on our depth chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YogiBiz Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I really like Jensen, but doubt we pay that money to bring him on. We might look to draft a center which I don't mind. But also would like to see us go after Breahaud Breeland. Would make a nice tandem with Jenkins and would make Apple expendable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmen Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 With the amount of roster slots to fill, and the impending gigantic contract OBJ is going to get, I can't imagine we make anything but value signings in free agency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Bettcher asserts himself and actually pulls JPP and Vernon for a few reps every game to keep them fresh. I expect us to sign a lot of LBs. Quantity over quality at this point. We barely have enough bodies to play some positions in Bettcher's defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
