It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Regarding Philthy, I would either make them an offer for Stefan Wisniewski or wait for them to release old friend Anthony Fabiano.Trade with the Eagles for a backup G and start Karras.
OK, looks like we got this covered. I'm going to sleep.I've never been a Ferentz fan...but I think Froholdt is going to be a fantastic starting LG or C someday...hopefully with the pats...maybe LG if we don't re-sign Thuney.
It's been said at various websites that the Jets really wanted Froholdt (and Winovich) and have him start at either LG or C....glad we got them instead.
Evan Lazar (whom i have a lot of respect for his football knowledge) thinks Froholdt is an excellent offensive lineman. He's made some mental mistakes in the pre-season but when he is right...he's a freakin rockstar on that line.
I pasted this in the other thread...going to spam you again...
NFL Draft & Combine Profile - Hjalte Froholdt | NFL.com
Overview
Froholdt has primarily lined up at guard, but a move to center might give him his best shot as a pro. He has good power to absorb and neutralize at the point of attack, but there just aren't enough wins as an in-line blocker due to his lack of push. Froholdt also struggles to protect his edges through foot quickness or functional power and he should be able to get the help he needs at center. His ability to play both guard and center strengthens his case to become a solid backup who can step in and start in a pinch.
Strengths
- Can take reps at either guard spot and center
- Operates with adequate pad level as an interior blocker
- Long torso and short legs provides lower center of gravity
- Strong core for plus contact balance
- Short-area quickness to mirror slants and sustain on the frontside
- Excellent radar adjusting to targets in space on short and long pulls
- Takes optimal track up to middle linebackers on outside zone
- Able to drop anchor and stand ground against bull rushers
- Recognizes twist development and responds accordingly in pass pro
- Posted solid tape in matchup against Alabama's Quinnen Williams, a projected high first-round pick.
This sucks....first I hope Andrews is OK.
Second, Karras is our best option right now. Lets get behind him!
Third, Froholdt looked like a turnstile on Thursday night...will re-watch that game...but it wasn't pretty on the first viewing...
I had Froholdt labeled a (Patriot-Type Player) in 2017 & brought him up as a replacement in the other thread.I've never been a Ferentz fan...but I think Froholdt is going to be a fantastic starting LG or C someday...hopefully with the pats...maybe LG if we don't re-sign Thuney.

Yep. I believe that he’s the only player left on the NFI list.What's the deal with Yodny Cajuste. Is he hurt?
Karras
Or, trade for Trent Williams, kick Wynn to Guard, and kick Thuney to Center.
