matt79511 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Very good deal. I would've thought 3 years, $14-15M range. Doesn't preclude us from going OL in Round 1 at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roysmyboy31 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Sweet deal for a new swing tackle. Addresses needed depth in that area. Still expect us to address G in the draft (I would prefer after Round 1 personally). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dallas94Ware Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Fleming is a huge boost. Not because he can "swing" left or right, or fill in for Smith if his back becomes a problem again... But because he also has the skills to play guard. His feet move like a tackle, and his upper half plays like a guard. Sound like someone similar on this team? Yep, Zach Martin and La'el Collins both fit that description too. And while Collins was moved to RT when Free retired, he began as a guard and looked better at guard for a reason. The way this team blocks requires lateral agility from the inside threesome, and Fleming could bring that back to LG. I think Fleming is your starting left guard by week 1.
