Allstarjim Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Because I am not going to pay money to read articles from a sports journalism giant I am not on the "inside", so to speak.

mastershake Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 19. New York Giants - OG/C Maurkice Pouncey, Florida That would be an excellent pick. Except Maurkice Pouncey was already drafted by Pittsburgh last year, haha. His brother, Mike Pouncey, would be the pick we want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMFP Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 As much as a want a linebacker, if we could get a true masher at center, I could live with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K3VIN Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 As much as a want a linebacker, if we could get a true masher at center, I could live with that. he struggled with the move to Center. He most likely will move back to guard for the Pros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reason why mike pouncey didn't declare for the draft the same year as his brother? We could be getting the left over genes in this guy. But upgrading the OL is a must so I wouldn't mind getting one then a LB on our next pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allstarjim Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 What's with the all the hatin' on the offensive line? I thought they were great this year. Snee was his usual... terrific. Seubert was the team's MVP this season. Kareem McKenzie probably had his best season as a Giant this year. At left tackle, it was a merrigoround. But when Diehl was there he did a good job, and Beatty showed again that he is making progress and is probably the team's future at either tackle... if not the left side he will start one day in the future. Then there is Andrews. When he was right he was great. When he had back problems he wasn't. As for O'Hara, he is taking a lot of heat here and other places... but the guy has been great for us for a long time. Sure, he hurt the team when he tried to come back too soon from injury... but at least the guy showed heart by trying. Granted, it was a mistake for him to play. But he was playing at less than 100%, and we can't lose sight of that. If you want a replacement, cool. He is 33 years old, and will play next season at 34. But to say that he's washed up, I don't see it that way. Maybe get a guy that he could turn the reigns over to in a season or two. But we may already have that guy in Adam Koets. Does anybody feel that he didn't do a good job when he was in there at center? And another guy who I thought performed well above my expectations was Kevin Boothe, who I believe is a free agent this year. Particularly when he was playing Guard, I thought he was very, very good. And although Petrus didn't see much time on the field, that one game where he ran on the field and showed that intensity, I loved that. And he went in there ready to knock someone on their ass. I think Petrus is a very good candidate to be a starting guard on our team one day when Richie passes the torch. All in all, I think we have a great group that if we can keep it together, will be very good for the next 2 seasons before we need to think about replacing guys like McKenzie, Seubert, and O'Hara.

They weren't bad... but they weren't what they have been either. You can chalk that up to injuries if you want and I don't think you'd be entirely wrong, but the way they were banged up this year is just a bad omen. I'm not putting faith in them getting healthy.

It takes a while for guys in the O-line to gel together. it's more of a unit than anything. Stocking up on Linemens now will give us the best chance for another great line for years to come...
