that is not going easy on the ankle. Hopefully, this last one fixed it and he can strengthen it too realize his enormous potential. He looks noticeably stronger.
When the medical staff clears him for full contact and he starts taking all the reps with the 1s, I'll exhale. We don't even know whether Thomas is on schedule so far.
These guys are all amazing athletes who can do insane things in the gym, even while rehabbing from surgery. Clips like this are better than footage of him walking gingerly in a hot tub; but I'm not sure how much we can infer from anything an offensive lineman does in shorts, let alone an edited clip on Twitter.
Of course I do. I wasn't too thrilled when the Giants drafted him (I wanted Jedrick Wills), but after a rocky rookie season, he's turned into a pretty good LT, and I hope he can turn into a great one. No, what I want to see is Joshua Ezeudu get a fair shot at LG, and so far he hasn't because Thomas has been on the shelf.
Sure, it's nice that Ezeudu can play LT in a pinch. I'm sure that's one reason the Giants drafted him earlier than most expected. But it would be a shame to see a guy who could be an upper echelon pro Guard playing Tackle out of necessity.
If we go Thomas-Ezeudu-Feliciano-Glowinski-Neal to start
You'd have to be happy the young guys are good and developing. I still have hopes Lemiuex pans out as well as Peart but injuries hurt both guys. With Peart, does he have the 'edge' or mentality needed to be a great RT in this league?

That's what I'd like to know, too.
Thanks, Matt.

He's got all the tools, the strength of a guard coupled with the agility & feet of a tackle.
If things work out, Dan Jones will not have to worry about his "blind" side.
Joe Judge’s staff couldn’t coach. Anything they said I take with a big grain of salt.
