Just a guy. We signed his identical twin in Linkenbach. I don't know why people keep freaking out about the team letting Schwartz go.

Why did the Giants give him that starting contract? Because he's just a guy?
Or because he was a young player that needed time to turn into the solid starter that he was for us?
Bouncing around from team-to-team doesn't mean shit. On paper if that's all you know about a player, then sure, it's a bad thing. We don't have just that. We have half of a season's worth of games to look at what he did and judge him as a starting offensive lineman. The prognosis around most of the fanbase was that he was absolutely good enough to start for the team longterm. The Giants clearly ****ing viewed it that way, and so did John Dorsey, who apparently tried hard to reach out to Schwartz, but wouldn't bite the bullet on the contract that Schwartz wanted.
