about the 1 year deal and how Brewer could bolt for more money after the season, or is that just a BBI phenomenon?

We signed who?
Rumor has it they signed him not to play tackle....  
Bluenatic : 3/19/2015 12:07 pm : link
.... but instead to serve as an extra turnstile outside of Met Life on game days.

Biggest letdown on the OL  
Joey in VA : 3/19/2015 12:08 pm : link
For me in years. He has size, power, hand punch, good feet and he could never put it all together. He should have been able to be the heir apparent to McKenzie with his size and power and he just flopped.
so glad he is finally off this team  
GiantsFan84 : 3/19/2015 12:09 pm : link
should have happened long ago
I'd be surprised if he made it to their final cuts after August.

Brewer completely and utterly stinks.
4 years ...  
Floyd The Barber : 3/19/2015 12:10 pm : link
too late, what a piece of garbage, I remember watching his very first play his rookie season, preseason, and knew instantly this guy didn't have it ... nice job whoever scouted him out
Where  
Joey in VA : 3/19/2015 12:12 pm : link
Did this guy go???
Feet, lateral quickness, balance, size...sigh - ( New Window )
you know what, that was harsh ...  
Floyd The Barber : 3/19/2015 12:13 pm : link
I take that back, he was not a piece of garbage, he just wasn't a football player ... who I take up issue with is whoever scouted and said this is our man ...

Go look at his Indiana tapes, he had everything you want in an OT. He just flopped, this is more on coaching than scouting
Nah he sucked

watch the GIANTS tapes. It was on him.

You said a whole lot of nothing. The question is, did the scouts fail? I don't think so at all, you seem to just want to say something to talk.

yes, the scouts absolutely failed ... they should know what it takes when they see an athlete and make a pretty darned good case and say this guy has what it will take at the next level ... whoever scouted him must of been very hungover, maybe did not want to be on the trip, could be a family friend of the Brewers, maybe $$ played a roll ... there is no way a pro nfl scout would declare this guy a football player ... he did master the art of collecting a nice paycheck for 4+ years with no services rendered ... for that I am impressed

You're pleased with Bennett and Thurmond deals? You think Brewer is as good a player as those two?
i did get a kick and a knott ...  
Floyd The Barber : 3/19/2015 12:32 pm : link
in my stomach every time over the past 4 years they tried to insert this guy into the lineup, and would just play himself right out of it ... talk about forcing an issue ... again, who was responsible for scouting and saying we need him ...

Brewer wont make it out of Jets summer camp ...

we've managed to lose Brewer ...  
Floyd The Barber : 3/19/2015 12:38 pm : link
but gain Newhorse, who is equally as bad a football player ... net/net we lost nothing ...
Yeah OK it was on the coaches that Brewer sucked  
Speak : 3/19/2015 12:38 pm : link
The Giants have had the same offensive line coach for 11 years now but it's his fault Brewer got out muscled and couldn't block anyone?
Great signing by the Jets  
Giants2012 : 3/19/2015 12:40 pm : link

Com'on, the kid couldn't break into the Giants OL.
Watch the Seahawks game from 2013

He just looked lost and got knocked around, like he wasn't even there
Wouldn't it be something,  
Doomster : 3/19/2015 12:41 pm : link
if he ACTUALLY played?
Adios  
BLUATHRT : 3/19/2015 12:43 pm : link

Still the same old Jets

Speak : 3/19/2015 12:49 pm : link
credibility into question in hindsight drafting Brewer because he rarely saw the field and was a useless roster spot/wasted draft pick because HE couldn't handle the fundamentals of being an NFL product. Plain and simple.
Thank God!

Now ReeCe can't force Tom to have to use this turnstile!

Brewer  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 3/19/2015 2:04 pm : link
did play in 2013. He started eight games. He's just a soft player.
...  
GP : 3/19/2015 2:10 pm : link
Can we end the whole teddy bear thing being a symbol of his softness? ... at least in the sense that he was carrying the bear because he loves how snuggly it is. It's something the Giants OL members pass around to one another to possess and carry around.
I hate labeling players as "soft" or whatnot  
Ten Ton Hammer : 3/19/2015 2:15 pm : link
but it's really hard to stop yourself from thinking it with him, and that has nothing to do with him carrying around a teddy bear.

Yes and how many OL has Flaherty developed in those 11 years? He inherited Diehl, Seubert, O'Hara and McKenzie was already an established RT when he signed with the Giants.
Brewer is very athletic for a guy his size  
Jay on the Island : 3/19/2015 2:29 pm : link
but he lacks the toughness to be a good OL.

Floyd, my point is, that at Indiana he looked very good, that talent did not show up in New York. Plenty of blame to go around, most of it probably on Brewer but athletically and on game days in college, he was a very very good player with a lot of tools scouts drool over. He just flopped.
From the signing interview ...
