why he never got on the field last year. I can't believe that he was worse than what they trotted out there every week.
It's hard to imagine even at right tackle he wouldn't have added more value. What type of shape must he had been in, which again begs the question why was he on the roster.
And the Giants are the only team in the last two years who actually signed him. That would seem to indicate that he's not going to be good.
If he does go to the Eagles and plays lights out, is that bad on McAdoo or Reese?
Both, but Mac would seem more culpable, no? It'd mean he has a major problem evaluating OL talent, especially given the shifting they've done all year and mixed results.
Reese/McAdoo notwithstanding, nobody wanted him. He was there for anyone's taking last season and only the Giants wanted him. Same this season - available to any team, but no one gave him a call until the Eagles had a bunch of injuries.
This is a desperation signing. They're hoping and praying that he is at least adequate.
an Eagles game if Beatty is starting. Very interesting.
Mark your calendar for Dec. 17th. If Beatty has one more game left in him, I'd bet that one game will be his best performance of his career. It would only be appropriate.

Because the "young, ascending" tackles needed all the practice reps, and your swing tackle was the left guard, I'd say.
Eric Winston got signed off the couch last week. So many OL'men on IR or PUP this year teams are in desperation mode.
That last line is EXACTLY why we need to go OL, even at 1 or 2 spot. At least 25 teams NEED one young lineman, or more; we may need up to 4. Teams are going to move around just for one, even after FA. WE can't afford the FAs worth FA $$.
Unless the OLs coming out dump on the Sealy at the Combine, we need to do whatever to grab 1.
Or else our replacement for Eli better be a sprinter.
Let's see how he's used with the Eagles. If he's good, Reese should be ashamed.

He should be ashamed for making the current mess, especially at OL.
