    This will be such a brutal contract.

    sure will - but i think he would be solid for Deshaun Watson.. We need to protect him at all cost..
    We should sign him and another OL + EJ Gaines)
    on the offensive side of the ball (Tyler Eifert ), Jordy Nelson
    sounds like a dream, but you never know

    Agree. His agent is just ****in us at this point. Who’s the most desperate?

    Obviously Gaine is all about this..... hence the reasons why he’s giving pennies to Joe Schmo signings yesterday.

    Solid player, best LT available. He's probably a top 25 tackle about to be paid like a top 10 tackle.

    Best available. He’s okkkkkkkk. Not a stud at all, but will get ridiculous money he would never get. He’s already saying he’s shocked how much love he’s getting. Probably doesn’t think too highly of himself.

    It's disappointing not to have a solid LT, but I'm not disappointed to not be paying "franchise left tackle" money to a non franchise left tackle.

    Makes sense. NYG PAID the premium for him out of sheer desperation. He's probably a NE guy or his family is. He gets to keep them in NE for his kids treatments. Get's paid like a Franchise LT.

    Dodged a bullet, IMO.

    Too much money for an average guy.

    I just don't get it - whats the direction the team going in? Through the draft maybe with the pciks they still have left?

    So people complain about shelling out 34 million for AC (8.5 annually) and another 7.5 for Fulton... these are VALUE. But get mad that we didn't overpay a LT that's not franchise quality? He's ok, but let's not act like he's worth the price tag that I'm sure is ASTRONOMICAL.

    They are doing the best they can with Bill O'Brien as their GM.
