The Third Rider Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Can he play LT? I like this trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only played there once, maybe two games last year when Staley went out with an eye injury. He was okay - no glaring issues during that time, but obviously you're talking highly limited sample as he's never played there at any other time with us since we've always had Staley.

SirA1 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I think he's likely a replacement for Cameron Fleming in the rotation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1ForTheThumb Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Interesting. Cannon and Brown are solid RT's. I don't see how this move makes sense unless they want to try Brown at LT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpulse Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Extremely solid pick up at a good value coming off injury. He grades out well in Pass Pro and could be viewed as a fall back plan as a starter at worst or a great back up at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluemushrooms Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Trading down 50 picks for a guy that can crush Pass Pro? Hell yeah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't understand what the plan is with this trade and the Wynn selection. Maybe they're unhappy with Thuney or think Mason is going to walk after this season (he's certainly played his way into an elite positional contract) but taking a guard in the 1st round with the intention of redshirting him as a rookie would be very much against type for Belichick.

Soko Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Cannon, Garcia, Waddle, Brown, and Wynn as OT depth. Can’t complain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played LT in limited action but I think he will be just fine there. This a talented pass protector regardless where he lines up. Keep Cannon at RT, play Brown at LT and Wynn could play guard.

I'm not questioning Brown's talent, but there's a reason some guys are suited purely for the right side of the line. Some guys just can't adjust to basically having to invert their technique. We'll see if that's the case with Brown. But either way, I question the value of taking Wynn in the first round to play guard, given how strong a position it was for the Pats last year.

J-ALL-DAY Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Well, one reason he was playing RT is because we have had one of the best tackles of his era playing LT in Staley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP3MVP Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I’d prefer the moves they’ve made instead of paying Solder like he’s Anthony Munoz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannon: Coming off a season ending injury, been awful at LT Garcia: Never played a snap in the NFL, coming off a very serious career threatening injury. Waddle: Career back-up who played averagely for us at both spots Brown: Coming off a serious injury and has serious weight concerns Wynn: 6'2" Rookie I wish I could share your optimism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
