Today are just asked to hold the line they are not blowing people off the line they are just not being run over. Richburg took a major step back year before and this year was a loss due to several reasons time to move on, good luck.
Drop down to 4-5

Pick up some extra picks and draft 4 OL with our first 4 picks and start the rebuild!
Something very strange ...  
Mike From Brielle : 3/13/2018 11:52 am : link
was going on the last few years with our OL! All those high draft picks and nothing to show for it? It was almost as if Reese and McAdoo were trying to screw the OL up. If I had had my druthers I would have liked to have let the OL situation stabilize a bit and see what happened this year. Coughlin does seem to be taking vengeance on the Giants; someone should tell him the people who he has a beef with (maybe justifiably)are gone.

Reese spends all this money on the defense as soon as Coughlin is gone but McAdoo's offense (which is supposedly his strong point) goes down the toilet which just before that year it was one of the highest rated offenses in the NFL if memory serves.
Not a hog molly

was never going to resign him. He doesn't have the mass to be a "hog mollie." He's mostly a move player who works best in space, not at the LOS. As others have said, he's cerebral, but gets moved off the ball and pushed back. He also has trouble generating any push at the LOS.


Went over this last week. Tim Jernigan called him one of the strongest centers he’s ever faced and a load in the running game. Jernigan is a DT who carries no brief for Richburg . His analysis belies the “finesse, second level” cliches about him . I was off on my estimate about when he would sign. I thought he would be signed on 3-15. Doesn’t take long for offensive linemen to move. Lastly, perhaps some of the disappointment with these guys should be directed toward Solari?



Wait!! BBI said Solari was going to fix everything! It was all Flaherty's fault!

;-)




Ive said this before, but this OL will be better with different coaching. You can take average OL and build a servicable OL with good coaching


We're on our third offensive line coach with this experiment.

Yes, when it was a TC/GB WCO hybrid in 2015. That is true. It went to shit when it became 100% McAdoo scheme

It absolutely looks like this is what we will need to do and I'm ok with that
There's no way  
ryanmkeane : 3/13/2018 12:43 pm : link
Gettleman is passing on Barkley or QB to trade down a few spots to take a guard.
another failed  
SHO'NUFF : 3/13/2018 12:48 pm : link
Reese pick
I thought Richburg was a fullback...  
BamaBlue : 3/13/2018 12:56 pm : link
he spent so much time in the backfield on running plays.

Was it Coughlin's last year when Richburg had his best year at Center? I don't recall.

Yes. 2015..
Richburg to SF...  
Torrag : 3/13/2018 1:58 pm : link
...very relieved we let this guy walk.

Excited to see what Jones can do and satisfied the FO knows he was the better player given the tender value they assigned to him.
Glad we finally get to stick it to San Fran  
Jimmy Googs : 3/13/2018 2:56 pm : link
for us signing David Baas...

LOL!
Richburg was part of the problem,  
Doomster : 3/13/2018 3:22 pm : link
as others have said, addition by subtraction....
Richburg's best skill was  
mrvax : 3/13/2018 4:22 pm : link
somehow getting his back in proper position to make contact with his QB on passing downs, the running back on runs. How do we replace that skill?

Amen. Mcadoo wrecked shit here. He was as bad as humanly possible.
I am not so sure. Are we really saying Richburg was developing  
Jimmy Googs : 3/13/2018 7:10 pm : link
into a good Center, but then we changed coaches and then he sucked? Like he didn't know how to play the position well anymore because he was poorly coached?


someone else called it - puzzling  
bc4life : 3/13/2018 8:00 pm : link
first year looked pretty good - then the injuries, the suspension. then the play deteriorated.

He's not the only recently drafted linemen who started off their career well, then got progressively worse the longer he was on the team.

Richburg's second season was legitimately good. Pugh's rookie year he made the all rookie team at RT.

Richburg went into the tank and Pugh lost his RT job the following season.
I’m glad  
nygnyy274 : 3/13/2018 8:33 pm : link
We did not resign him I’ll be even happier if Pugh goes elsewhere
Our centers have had an affinity for playing in our own backfield.  
RDJR : 3/13/2018 9:38 pm : link
O’Hara had a similar propensity his final few seasons.
glad to see him go  
mdc1 : 3/13/2018 9:47 pm : link
and hopefully along with the rest of them (Pugh). Functional guys but not effective and the culture of "underachieving" will likely hamper us. We can lose with different guys with perhaps a fresh start and upside.
Shanahan runs an outside zone blocking scheme  
Vanzetti : 3/13/2018 11:56 pm : link
that will fit Richburg's skill set perfectly

Solari's inside zone scheme never really was effective but that probably had more to do with the RG than Richburg. Also, takes time to develop and Giants never had a consistently healthy OL.
