Another team in on Patriots OT Nate Solder: The New York Giants. After losing out on Andrew Norwell, their search for offensive line help continues. Pats will have a battle to hold on to Tom Brady's left tackle.
Then we should be in a good$$$ situation DG needs to be firm don’t kick the can down the road so we are in perpetual cap hell like forever under reese
LMAO

You’re the worst
Truth hurts, doesn’t it? Wait until you see how bad he fucks up the draft.
You are an unhappy little man.
The Rod Babers of offensive linemen.
He was, yes - 5th rd I believe.
Went to MIN for a few years after he left here.
James Brewer, another Ereck Flowers. Except Flowers actually plays with some aggression and power.
I’d be really surprised if we don’t take at least one OL in Rounds 2 and 3.

I would too. Building the OL through the draft will take a couple a couple of years but you need to start with this draft.
Which is very silly of course. Get great football players. Wide is fine.
seriously
Agreed. He’s better as a Pat than any other team.
PFT ranked him the 30th best tackle.
1000% agree , especially if your planning to draft a franchise QB for the future
Also this moves Flowers to guard or RT which could be a second huge addition to the line
We need building blocks to start with, not blocks that will need to be replaced in a season or two...
This team will make moves that make you scratch your head, like re-signing Herz and cutting DRC......I feel Gettleman is trying to go middle of the road instead of a full rebuild...
So be it....so long as the end justifies the means......

Bingo, he’s nowhere near as good as the money he’s going to get for a 30 year old. Hard pass on Solder
Ben Fricke was the center he was talking about. He said he was tough as a boot and would choke you to death.
Thx
Not sold on overpaying for Solder....by the time this team is ready to really compete for a SB, he will be too old....

The guy to sign was Norwell - could have gotten another 10 years out of him. Solder has already played the best he will ever play. At 30, he's not the guy to be signing. Reminds me of the same backward ass thinking when Reese cut ties with 24 year-old, SB champion, emerging star Linvale Joseph, and opted to go with older, less talented, and useless vets like Jenkins and Patterson.

funny how last year everyone wanted Whitworth who was five years older.. now we dont want a younger player who has played on a championship team ??
this place just loses its mind on the offseason..

What's really FUNNY is that you are comparing Solder, who has made ZERO Pro Bowls in 7 years to Whitworth who has been 1st Team All Pro and made 5 Pro Bowls. Comparing an apple to a quashed orange, but if you think you must...

sorry but pro bowls dont really mean much to me..
here is the reality.. there isnt much talent in free agency. Solder like it or not is the best tackle out there. The Giants made an offer to Norwell. he chose another team. Thats how it works.. Just like you can chose another place of employment.. so can they.. fans just dont seem to able to deal with the fact that someone didnt chose THEIR team..

Pro Bowls don;t mean much is easy to say when a guy blocking for Tom Brady has not made 1 in 7 years. Just because you do not get your guy Norwell means that you turn around and overpay for a less productive, older, and inferior player. What fans get - and apparently you do not - is that you do not take a FA snub and compound the issue by trying to make up for it. See decision to pass on 24 year old Linvale Joseph and knee-jerk older, less talented Mike Patterson and Cullen Jenkins

Hopefully you’ll be banned by then. Whiny little bitch troll
What’s got your panties bunched up new guy? Whatever it is, I am sure you can get over it & keep scrolling on...
Dave G couldn’t get the top head coach he wanted or top tier free agents he wanted/needed for the OL... facts. Didn’t like the Dave G hire and that’s not going to change until he makes some good moves.. haven’t seen any yet. It’s a shame how such a poor OL a year ago looks to only be getting worse now...
Don’t like the Ogletree trade...
Don’t like the DRC cut...
Herzlich...?
Greco...?
Stewart...?
Are you for real?
It’s early, yeah, but so far, no bueno...
I'm not saying he's bad - just not worth the $15M/year he may command. if there was no cap - sure, but are you saying you would give him a 4yr/$56M-$60M deal? I would not go there at all.
Now, if you feel that it is a mistaken in judgement by he team, maybe.
Desperate times leads to desperate measures.
The Giants have Wheeler as our only LT prospect.
Solder might cause a domino effect across entire OL. Solder solidifies LT,which allows others to go to better fitting positions. Win/win
