Old players, physically weak, easily manhandled. Our line isn't pathetic enough. Don't give any young, strong aggressive players a chance. A guy like this knows his assignments. We are not going to win a game. A GAME.
name personally for me. It is the same name as a student and track athlete that I had. He was a West Point graduate and a Captain in the United States Army who was killed in action in Iraq in December 2007.
Has played every position on the line and hasn't missed many games in his career. This is probably akin to brining back Diehl from a few years ago - he's no spring chicken and has some physical flaws but he'll at least know what he's doing.
I wouldn't be surprised if the compensating move is Schwartz to IR-Designated to Return.
Is a depth move and possible roster flexibility move. Pending his versatility and Browns readiness, it could mean brewer waived and Schwartz to short term IR. That frees one more spot for another player.
Adam Snyder - G - Free Agent
FOX Sports' Mike Garafolo reports the Giants are "working to sign" free agent OG Adam Snyder.
Snyder was released by the 49ers on Saturday. The 32-year-old has made 87 career starts, but has generally been bad for the past half-decade. With LG Geoff Schwartz (toe) sidelined, the Giants are looking for quality depth. Snyder would be nothing more than that as a versatile interior lineman.

Will you go the fuck away as soon as we do win a game? You suck.
An aging vet looking for one last ride into the sunset. We're supposed to be discarding, not collecting, these guys. Shows you how bad the OL is right not. If they get rid of someone, it could be Brewer, but my guess is that it's Brown. If so, it could be addition by subtraction, at least a little bit.
in a Google search, and reading articles coming out of SF and Arizona, he's played reasonably well when he's played guard, but has been horrible as a tackle. I don't see him replacing Brewer or Brown. I see him backing up at guard until Schwartz is back. He's a decent run blocker, but below average as a pass blocker. Right guard appears to be his best position. Schwartz is probably going on short term IR to make room.
signed a 5-year year deal with the Cardinals with a $3 million signing bonus and they cut him a year later, a move that kind of tells you he's near the end.
The Snyder signing was curious from the start. He came to the Cardinals after a subpar 2011 season with the San Francisco 49ers, who were eager to upgrade at the position themselves. Snyder struggled both in the passing and rushing game for the Cardinals. We're sure Jim Harbaugh wasn't surprised.
Snyder struggled in his first season with the Cardinals, first dealing with a nagging elbow injury, and playing poorly. Whether that injury affected him much has not been said, but he was considered by almost all fans as the weakest link on the offensive line (once D'Anthony Batiste was replaced in the starting lineup by Nate Potter) that allowed 58 sacks on the season.
His versatility and association with the successful San Francisco 49ers offensive line were likely big reasons why the Cardinals liked him in free agency. However, he was, even in San Fran, considered the weakest link there, which is why the Niners let him go.
According to Pro Football Focus, he was the fourth worst rated guard in the league. He earned a negative rating in 10 of the 14 games he played.
His versatility, though, came in handy late in the season. The only position on the line he had not played previously was center. When both Lyle Sendlein and Rich Ohrnberger suffered season-ending injuries, Snyder stepped in and started the final three games at center.
lectured again about how much value you have to place in a player being in the entire off-season program. Doesn't mean jack if you think the new guy is better. Snyder is a miserable player. That is what I like about him. He ain't heaven but I think he's on par with Schwartzie, who is also kinda like a Niners guard. They're not pretty.
Snyder would only be eligible to be on the active roster, obviously.

Hopefully bye bye Reynolds

Can confirm a report from @MikeGarafolo. The #Giants are on the verge of singing versatile G/T Adam Snyder.

Can he walk? Stand up? Move laterally?

But the 49ers did re-sign him to a 2-year deal before cutting him.
