Brian Baldinger breaks down Giants Offensive Line

BigBlueHens : 11/21/2017 1:50 pm
Some interesting film and breakdowns on the Giants offensive line play this past week. The O line gave Eli time to make his reads and some good throws. Interesting stat is that Eli dropped back 35 times and was hit once all afternoon, according to Baldinger.

The link to his twitter account is posted, where the videos/breakdowns can be found.

There were guys to get. Castoffs that nobody thought much of. Which is exactly what the Vikings paid for with guys like Remmers.

The argument this offseason should be not going after an old but good player like Whitworth, not wildly overpaying for guys with bad track records then playing the hindsight game when they get a decent line out of it.
Reese does not get credit for Wheeler!!

Not when he gave up two picks for Bisnowaty.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in awhile - cautiously optimistic about Wheeler but it is only 1 game.

If Pugh and Hart hadn't got hurt, Fluker and Wheeler wouldn't have got a shot.

McAddo would have played the old "Consistency Card" all the way to a 1-15 record. Now Fluker's hurt, that's a real shame, he's a very good on-the-field teacher for Wheeler.

Looking at next year, #1 priority is Center; Richburg is a flop.
Jones has been a solid center

For all the griping you guys do about officiating, we got away with two right there.


You do realize that the refs could call holding on just about every single play, right? Every OL does it. Its about being smart about it, and getting your hands inside.

Accorsi did a great job signing offensive line castoffs: O'Hara, Glenn Parker, Zeigler, Lomas Brown, Kareem McKenzie to name a few.
I can't remember Parker or Brown  
Ten Ton Hammer : 11/21/2017 3:22 pm : link
But O'Hara was a scrap heap pickup with no risk attached.

Definitely a hold and it could be argued that the DT being held could have made the play if he wasn't being held. That seems to influence when the umpire throws the holding flag.

O'Hara  
giants#1 : 11/21/2017 3:29 pm : link
He was definitely an under the radar pickup, but he still got a 3 yr/$5M deal from the Giants initially. In today's NFL, that's probably comparable to the deal Jerry got this past offseason (i.e. low end starter/high end backup), especially considering center is usually the cheapest of the OL positions.

There's a clip in his play where Wheeler is one on one with Houston  
ajr2456 : 11/21/2017 3:43 pm : link
and he manhandles him. His ability to lock out and control his guy is impressive for an UDFA. Once his hand placement gets more consistent he'll be a very good tackle.

Flowers really has two major flaws that if corrected can turn him into an excellent tackle. That dip of the head out of his stance and his hand placement. When he's inside a guys shoulder pads and locked out he's very good. He's just inconsistent in both those areas.
clear that the coach/scheme was the issue  
hitdog42 : 11/21/2017 3:44 pm : link
playing hart as a starting point a terrible idea.
not playing fluker as a starting point... terrible idea

team could not run because of the OL choices... and the QB is immobile... so teams could just tee off on us.

we also were doing things like play action on 2nd and 12... and other nonsense.

so the scheme/coaching has improved a bit and we have players in better spots to allow the team to succeed.

the OL needs to add 1 stud via 1st round pick or FA... and we have 4 other players that would put together a solid OL.

An indication as to how good Chad Wheeler is.

Do you guys ever get tired of puffing up prospects? Herman, Bisnowaty, Hart etc etc etc etc these guys are all budding stars until cold reality sets in 2 or 3 years down the road. Wheeler was passed on by 32 teams for 6 rounds. We, who have not found a decent UDFA since Victor Cruz sign him and he's now "manhandling" veterans. Hopefully they get him out of there before other teams have some film on him, learn his weaknesses and kick his ass all over the field.

...on Chad Wheeler.
Quote:
Chad’s ability to recover and adjust and continue to trust his techniques along with his natural athletic talents shows maturity beyond most left tackles coming out in a draft. He has excellent lateral agility and foot speed to go out to the second level or be used on sweeps, screen plays or pulling...Chad is the real deal and should be considered as a top player to select in this draft very early except for his history of operations...If he can get stronger and healthier there could be pro bowls in his future...Because of his injuries he’s a boom or bust player but if you select him in the latter rounds of the draft that’s a chance of the bust portion being minimized.

Wheeler was passed over in the draft mainly for off the field issues. I believe he would have been a middle round pick without the issues. He started at left tackle for USC for 3 years and was all conference with good measurables.

There was a very legitimate discussion this offseason whether the Giants should have gone after Andrew Whitworth. Very good, highly regarded tackle. 36 years old.

In this thread, someone mentioned the Vikings signing a bunch of free agent linemen and now having a good line. The players they signed for a lot of money are players who have bounced around the league for a handful of teams, coming off mediocre individual seasons. I'm contending it's a bad point to make that the Giants should have known to sign such players.
I stand corrected.  
jbeintherockies : 11/21/2017 6:41 pm : link
I remember the signing. I remember saying to my brother, who is that? I didn't know his first contract with the Giants was for so long.

Regardless, I still feel Accorsi did a good job signing offensive linemen that contributed and were not embarrassments. Accorsi could build an offensive line; Reese can't.

Grey Ruegamer was another guy that comes to mind. He was a very solid backup that started games for the Giants during their 2007 Super Bowl run.

Ok, I understand now. Agreed, hind-sight is 20-20. Two things:
1. I really think Reese wanted them to play the guys they had. He wanted to see if they could do it. I really believe that.
2. One of the points I was trying to make is Accorsi did a great job signing offensive linemen that no one wanted and were relatively cheap (except McKenzie). But the guys he signed were all productive. Glenn Parker (KC) and Lomas Brown (DET), for example, were at the end of their careers. No one wanted them. But they came in a played well; they contributed. And they didn't break the bank doing it.

Signing expensive free agents that can come in and produce ... anyone can do that. You and I can do that.

Maybe times are different now then they were ten years ago. Maybe offensive linemen are more expensive now because there are fewer of them. But I doubt it. I still think if you know what to look for you can find productive offensive linemen that won't cost an arm-and-a-leg.

Some poor decisions there. In defense of BM, it is hard to make big changes coming of 11-5, but the line was putrid from the preseason well into the schedule. Changes were screaming to be made and he would not do it. Might cost him his job. Lest we forget, young coaches make mistakes. Bill Parcells picking Scott Brunner over Phil Simms comes to mind.

That letting Richburg walk is a no-brainer. I’m also starting to think that they’re better off letting Pugh walk rather than pay top of the market UFA dollars. He’s seems to be a talented, versatile player and a hard worker, but to me not a difference maker to the tune of $10M+/year.

You really trust the ability of the coaching staff to properly evaluate anybody at this point? 2 guys that are seeing playing time now only due to injury are playing better than the incumbents. If no injuries, no playing time. See how that works?

Interesting comment about Flowers though. We all hate it when he drops his hands and leads with his head, but maybe his problem is that he's trying to do something unnatural. Perhaps as Baldy points out, as long as he ends up with his hands inside, feet set, locked out against the DE and can control his man he's okay.

Either way, it's clear that after all this time, the coaching that he should keep his hands and head up, lead with the punch first in a traditional pass set, isn't working. He may never be able to consistently do that, so as Baldy alludes - perhaps the coaching should change to just encourage him to do it using his own style.

Can't believe I'm writing that. Methinks a better DE would have a field day with a LT who leads with his head. I'm going to watch this closely the rest of the year - will give me something to review games for anyway.


Apparently, there is a term among some football linemen in some circles, where a guy who leads with his head is called a Giuseppe, because he'll eventually end up on his knees.
This is very brutal...

When he couldn't beat out John Jerry or Bobby Hart in camp or preseason?

You really trust the ability of the coaching staff to properly evaluate anybody at this point? 2 guys that are seeing playing time now only due to injury are playing better than the incumbents. If no injuries, no playing time. See how that works?


I think some of you are being a little ridiculous with your praise.

I don't think Jones has been that spectacular and Wheeler has played one game.

How did Bobby Hart look in his first start? Probably good. He went down hill from there.

As for Fluker, he first had to learn the playbook. That takes time. Maybe that is why you didn't see him as quickly as you would have liked.

Who says there was a competition that was taken seriously by these coaches?
