Does not taking an OT

DonnieD89 : 4/26/2019 12:10 am
mean that Remmers is going to be signed? Unless they make a trade into round two or three, pick 95 does not look good for a starting caliber OT to draft.
'mean that Remmers is going to be signed? '...

Probably. Also ties into the $5+ million in cap space they just cleared.
Pretty obvious handshake agreement in place.

Pretty Reese-esque

To go into a season counting on an OLineman coming off a major injury to start all 16 and play well.
Wasn't there an (unconfirmed) report that Remmers agreed to terms

but couldn't yet pass a physical? Basically, the story was that he went home to heal up and as soon as he can pass a physical, he's a Giant.

I'm not excited about Remmers. I doubt this signing works. But I will be thrilled to be wrong. More interested in seeing them get a RT in the draft.
I actually thought

They were moving to 30 to grab Taylor.

Remmers would be a stopgap
It means that that is not the real Dave Gettleman...

That's what I thought, too.

As for Remmers, they'd better have some kind of secret deal with him, because the thought of trotting Wheeler out there again makes my stomach turn.

Right now the Giants have 3/5 of an O-Line and zero quality depth, this for a team that wants to run the ball, as well as protect their aging, relatively immobile QB. Sure, they had a lot of needs. Still do. But the need to upgrade the O-Line looks like a pretty dire one to me.

I'm with you-- I think he made a horrible mistake not getting a RT. I'm hopeful. It's no good to bitch about it. That's all I'll say.

Look forward to rd 3.

Maybe lightning will strike twice and Gettleman can find another starting OT in the 4th Round. Or maybe they really do have a deal in place for Remmers. Or maybe I'm just whistling past the graveyard, lol.
