You post this and say another of worst Oline coming up? Because we lose a guy we didn't want???

5 year deal

i wonder what the money is. Good signing for them IF he can stay healthy.

don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.

the OP makes no sense. Richburg was part of the problem.

ryanmkeane : 3/13/2018 10:46 am : link
weird when Richburg basically called out the entire OL after being on the team for 1 year. He called it "his offensive line" and said that some of the guys basically weren't doing what he was doing in the offseason. Remember that? I was hoping that would be a good thing....it wasn't
wait til jimmy G tries to step up and sees Richburg's

Bruner4329 : 3/13/2018 10:46 am : link
I don't get these people. We have one of the worst lines the last few years and an overhaul is needed so when we lose one of the guys that played on one of the worst lines people start complaining? Do they even watch the games? If they did they would know that there was no push from the center spot with this guy.

I'm sorry but I want a center who can blow a guy off the ball.

or a LEAST hold his ground.

Too much film out on this guy now. Just line up a big DT on the nose and push him back. Too easy. As an offense I don't know how you can scheme around that.

My mistake Victor - you must know more than the front office in San Fran. Maybe Gettleman should bring you in.
he will thrive in that system

and a qb who is very athletic.
No big loss  
DonnieD89 : 3/13/2018 10:52 am : link
Giants will have an opportunity to get Price, Daniels, or Ragnow in the 2nd if they want a C/OG. Let’s see how it goes.

James Daniels is my favorite center in the draft. Would be thrilled to get him at top of round 3 if he's somehow still there.

also signed (will be signing) a Center too. So either Richburg is changing positions or the center they signed is switching.

Can't argue that.

Five years....I'm sure he won't last there five years.

Looked to be a keeper, but his career has fallen off a cliff, though injuries might have contributed to it.

I'm not disappointed to lose him. As others have said, he's too light to get a push or keep a pocket for the QB.

And Daniels, as good as he is, is also very light. I'm not sure I want to go that route again. I think I'd rathr have Ragnow.

I don't see that working out, but what do I know? He has the mobility, but if he didn't have enough push to play C, he is he going to play OG?

Shanahan does run a zone scheme, so maybe Richburg is a fit there? Either way, it didn't work here, so best of luck to him.

Lmao not to get all technical on you but YES a players value is based off of what the market dictates. You have your answer. So yes he has value clearly. If your going to single out a post at least make sense
That's shanny correct?  
idiotsavant : 3/13/2018 11:09 am : link
At very least running lots of outside zone like he did in atlanta might be easier for the slightly smaller, lighter players as opposed to what mac attempted to run.

That said, I was not a big believer in richburg as our center . Jones seems better anyway. So....who cares, no great loss for us.

And we dont yet even really know our run block style.

Next subject.

Yeah he was not very good but he was light. Maybe a couple of trips to Krispy Kreme will help him.

We tendered Jones and Hilapio and re-signed Greco, so right now its seems like safety in numbers approach and all the contracts are pretty reasonable.

He seemed pretty good but in the end

AcidTest : 3/13/2018 11:13 am : link
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.
Addition by subtraction  
RobCarpenter : 3/13/2018 11:13 am : link
As others noted the interior OL was better without him.

5 years is an absurd contract for him. Seems like SF is panicking after not getting Norwell.

So you think that is somebody signs a player who clearly sucks, he suddenly becomes a good player? That's the George Steinbrenner theory of talent acquisition. Ed Whitson (just one infamous example. Kenny Rogers another) is a good back of the rotation starter, so I'll pay him ACE $$ and he will become one.

with a full diaper and we witnessed him in the backfield and in Eli's lap all too often. Onward and upward.
Are the Giants entitled to Compensatory pick  
dk in TX : 3/13/2018 11:27 am : link
with this loss? Richburg was not released. I hope Richburg, Pugh, Fluker (if he is leaving) get "buku" dollars that may translate into 3rd round compensatory picks.

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?

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
Really...

We are better today with this announcement.
