A few notes on ex-Giants

Y28 : 5/26/2023 6:45 pm

1. OT Cameron Fleming has signed with the Broncos

2. OLB Markus Golden has signed with the Steelers

3. OG DJ Fluker worked out yesterday for the Eagles

Its that time of year where NFL veterans without a team are trying to find one year deals on teams that didn't solve their needs during initial free agency or the recent draft.

Golden had a solid first season with us.

Will Hernandez had an excellent year with the Cards ....

Evan Engram had a better year than the year that he was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2020.

Hernandez has a 65.4 PFF score, which is decent, but doesn't rise to excellent

Well, if we’re using PFF to assess guards:

Big Blue Blogger : 5/26/2023 7:44 pm : link

Glowinski 63.3
Bredeson 56.7
Ezeudu 46.0
Gates 60.3
Lemieux 29.4

Not saying Hernandez was particularly good. But we didn’t exactly upgrade, at least not in the short term.

Glad both are gone. Hernandez is an average guard. Engram is bad at football in spite of his catches.

Wonder if Fluker will get a shot somewhere

32 and not on a roster since 2020 but he looks to be in phenomenal shape.

Hernandez did NOT have an excellent year for the cards

I don't know where that came from.

Which is why I only half-jokingly said on another thread that DJ's excuse if he doesn't perform this year can be that his OL was awful

Yeah, terrible. That's why he got the franchise tag. Judas Priest.

Roseman embarrassing the rest of the league

with his genius and football acumen again, maybe Fluker is still worth looking at? Or maybe not.

Says he was up to 427 last year while out of the league. Lost 100 lbs.

Good for him.

At 427, he should have changed his name to Halibuter
