TNJet Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Giants just released the former first round OT. Bring him in for a tryout? Lord knows we need Tackle depth. He's only 24. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bealeb319 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Sometimes people need a second chance and a chage of scenery. If we could bring the kid in on a low risk deal I am all for it. Potential to get an olineman to grow with darnold is enough reward vs risk for meSent from my [device_name] using http://JetNation.com mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philc1 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Not a bad thought. He’d be ok as depth and for for the record i said Flowers would be a bust before the giants even drafted him in the first rd. Dude has no feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They decided instead to cut him...mid season at that. Read the tea leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 The thing about Flowers is that he never quite fully bloomed. It's not reasonable to expect that he could just come to the Jets and blossom. I mean, we're talking about a guy that never rose to the occasion and now we're just going to petal him off to the fans?

Bocajetfan Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Definitely worth a look. Not sure what the Giants blocking scheme is might fit. If his asking price is high then pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry McCockinner Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Don't know much about him other than Giants fans hate him. Did they ever try him at guard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adoni Beast Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I’m usually for giving young players a second chance with a change of scenary. But not this dude. He’s horrendous. You guys thought Wayne Hunter was bad?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewilly12 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 The entire Giants organization is a circus they haven't had a decent HC since Tom Coughlin left, I would bring this kid in for a tryout and see what's been going wrong for him as a Giant.

Lupz27 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Is Flowers athletic? If so did the Giants ever run a zone blocking scheme? If athletic, and never played in a zone scheme get him in here and give it a shot, but if not athletic or has been in zone scheme no thank you.

HawkeyeJet Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I actually think Flowers best fit could be at Guard in a zone scheme. He's athletic enough, especially for a guard. You could maximize his run blocking abilities(his strong suit, if he has one) and minimize his issues in pass protection by putting him in a phone booth where his size and reach could help overcome his bad footwork.

KRL Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Some of the worst technique I've ever seen from an OT. Don't even bother. After he's cut if he's serious about staying in the league he should find an OLine tutor and work with him until 2019. Then audition for teams and try to get signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupz27 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I see the Jaguars putting a claim on him if he makes it to them, Coughlin was part of that brain trust that drafted him 9th overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thought that coming out of Miami and more of a spread offense their scheme was zone blocking if the Giants asked him to do something different and not suited for then maybe.

Robert Gallery was actually an even bigger bust than Flowers and ended up having a decent career moving to Guard. Flowers just doesn’t have the feet to play Tackle but maybe he could be better as a Guard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus all the drama and pouting when they switched him from LT to RT. He skipped OTA’s over this and moving him from LT was justified because he’s freaking TERRIBLE. If they are going to eat his contract and can’t make room for him on that team with the HORRIBLE O-line, I want nothing to do with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
