Whew!

I was worried sick that he would sign with someone else.
haha

for the record seems like a great guy, born in red bank. Grew up a giants fan and i think on social media this year he said he was in attendance for Eli's first career start.
He came on nicely down the stretch

This guy can block. I'm on board.

Watch the Bears game - Simonson actually handled Khalil Mack really well in a few different instances.

Yep....he played well.
I liked what I saw out of him last season

That's a no Brainer

He actually contributed last year.
Championship move!

Simonson impressed as a blocker  
Jay on the Island : 2/19/2019 12:21 pm : link
He was probably the best blocking TE last season which is why Ellison is a possible cap casualty.
I was waiting for this to be official.  
Mr. Bungle : 2/19/2019 12:23 pm : link
Now I can order my Simonson jersey.
l Lke it, does what is asked of him.  
TMS : 2/19/2019 2:24 pm : link
and keeps improving. Good size and grit. Decent job against Mack is impressive. Type of OL that DG has found before.
Ellison

Not necessarily gone. It's not like Engram is the 2nd coming of Mark Bavaro.

BleedBlue : 2/19/2019 3:44 pm : link
i know him personally. coached him in baseball when he was young. he is a good kid and they are a very nice family.

in terms of football, i think he is a quality blocker and at least a very solid 3rd string TE. he will get a good amount of time with engram not used for blocking. glad he is a giant!
I think he had more penalties than blocks...

He is terrible in the red zone.....jag....

He's not really here to be a redzone target or starter.

He committed 3 holding penalties against the Bears which is probably why this is your perception of him.

He committed 3 other penalties all year outside of that game in 261 snaps. Not the end of the world.

Fresh take.
A good quality depth signing.  
SuperRonJohnson : 2/19/2019 4:46 pm : link
That's how you build a team.
Good combo blocker with Ellison  
SHO'NUFF : 2/19/2019 4:53 pm : link
was afraid the Patriots would snatch him up like they did Ballard...j/k
Bright future on the board of the "Soylent"

food company. As a TE, unknown.
