Defenderdawg : 8/19/2014 10:57 am
"EAST RUTHERFORD – Throughout the next three days, we'll dive into the offensive line competition, which focuses primarily on Geoff Schwartz, Weston Richburg and Brandon Mosley for the starting guard spots. Tom Coughlin said that nothing was set in stone the other day despite Schwartz and Mosley appearing like the odds-on favorites (and getting most of the practice reps with the 1's).

Good stuff
