I’ve seen this in a couple spots now, it’s early but here’s this from a NYP journalist... https://twitter.com/nypost_schwartz/...959128576?s=21

This would obviously be a hell of a low risk/high reward move that makes so much sense for a team destined to pick in the 30s.

He took two mid-to-late first round guards, Shawn Andrews in 2004 and Danny Watkins in 2011.

Just because he traded a 1st round pick, in 2009, 11 years after taking over the Eagles, doesn't mean that he had a proclivity to take offensive lineman early.

I get it man he only takes a OL 25% of the time in the first round.

Reid has been in the NFL since 1999 - 22 years.

During that time, he's spent two 1st rounders on Guards and two first rounders on Left Tackles.

That's it.

That's not a pattern.

I agree, but Andy Reid won't.

He seems to have the philosophy of investing in tackles but just scrape together players when it comes to guard-to-guard.

I wish we would get a stud center to anchor the Oline but I just don't think Andy will do it.

He's been in the NFL for 22 years so if you're going to look at it as first round offensive lineman only, that's 18%.

If you think that 18% is somehow a "pattern" or a priority, you may want to revisit 5th grade math.

You are forgetting the trade.

BTW Dane there at a minimum 7 player groups not including ST on a NFL team so if you need help with that math I can accommodate. And apparently its higher than 5th grade level.

So, DeAndre Baker plays guard now?

Precisely. You can certainly never have too many rookie contract, talented DBs.

How many former first round guards with only 1 year of accrued time are available?

Hold up.

If the Giants thought he was worth it, they would have waited out the investigation. The rumors here are that they already had issues with him.

And armed guards at that.

Man, this thread is shooting fish in a barrel.

They have issues with winning too. Just saying.

Once again Dave Gettleman.

This is a perfect time to add a kid like Baker if you think you can get him to stay out of trouble with our locker room.
