Hearing #Giants have expressed interest in G/T D.J. Fluker.
That's the kind of move they're looking at up front, and it'd be a good one.

Fluker has a visit scheduled with the Giants



Don't let him leave the building. Short ride to Foxboro.
Not to mention the Pats have $60m of available cap space and perennial favorites to go to the SB
Do it

Don't let the Pats get him
Watson to Denver

May the Fluke be with us.
NYG apparently had a high grade on him in the Pugh draft

It would be a good gamble on upside, but Fluker has the body type that doesn't age well. I wonder if he's gained weight since college that might be slowing him down.
The last team I'd want to compete for players

with are the Pats..Who wouldn't want to play for them..Our chances of signing him are slim and none, imo..If the Pats are serious about him, that is
They have to sign this guy

Goes along with the mantra of last offseason of signing players going into their second contract.

I think the Pats are set at the tackle positions, so they would most likely want him at OG. And it could be the Giants are projecting him at Right Tackle, which could be his preference. In other words, there could be more to his decision than a better shot at a Super Bowl trophy and who's to say that Belichick will offer him any more money than Reese.
Really hope we sign him on the cheap

Reminds me of when we got Shawn Andrews.

Put Fluker at RG and move FLowers to RT as mentioned above for power right side.
DJ Fluker

Looks like DJ Fluker is coming for a visit.
Link - ( New Window )
They have to close the deal on this guy..  
prdave73 : 3/10/2017 6:19 pm : link
This will really improve their line. It's a must move at this point.
Signing Fluker

Signing Fluker upgrades our Oline depth.

I see it as something of a similar style of signing to Shawn Andrews in that it would be reasonably low risk with upside.

Fluker seems to fit the style of OL that Solari likes.
I know its early in FA

but if the Giants are looking to sign Fluker they are waiting too long to do it...
Fluker to this point in his career has shown about the same as Jerry  
PatersonPlank : 3/11/2017 10:39 am : link
and Newhouse. Thinking he is a big upgrade is not accurate. Others castoffs aren't automatically good. Having said that I would assume as a former #1 he may have more upside if the lightbulb goes off. At this point we are painted into a corner. We'll likely add another guy with #23.
