The Giant Determination of Jameel McClain

Great watch. If posted will delete.

Have been very happy with his signing. Get to know him a little more.
Jameel McClain - ( New Window )
I think he played very well. If Beason comes back healthy

maybe play him outside, leave McLain at MLB?

One of the main reasons Beason was traded to the giants is that he couldn't play outside.

so much for that idea. :-)
just trying to figure a way to get Williams off the field
They need a WILL linebacker next

Year in the draft. None of the younger backups except for Kennard look to be anything more than special teamers.
McClain is much  
BigBlueDownTheShore : 9/26/2014 3:20 pm : link
better as a MLB then an outside LB. At least it seems that way now.
and Herzlich is just

terrible.
Would like to see

Devon Kennard get a shot at MLB as soon as possible. he could be our future not a stop gap vet who can have a a recurring injury take him out at any time.
Herz  
Reale01 : 9/26/2014 4:48 pm : link
Love the story, but he is horrible. Repeatedly running around with no idea. That was the weak link last night. Fortunately he can be replaced if EITHER Kennard or Beason get healthy. Paysinger has really fallen off if he doesn't play ahead of Herz.
I see Beason flanked by JW and McClain  
Big Blue '56 : 9/26/2014 4:50 pm : link
with Kennard working himself in..
Beason  
halfback20 : 9/26/2014 5:10 pm : link
when healthy is the best MLB we have and should be starting IMO. McClain is doing a good job there for now though.
whoa, McClain hasn't been better at MIKE than Beason  
JonC : 9/26/2014 5:15 pm : link
Beason is the significantly superior MIKE.

I do think McClain's been better at MIKE than WILL because he's been an ILB in the past, MIKE probably feels more instinctive to him than playing in space on the edge.

I agree a great story, but a poor performer.

I can somewhat understand he may have lost some of his physical skills, but Herzlich seems to be making mental / read errors (e.g. turning the wrong way for RBs out of the backfield, yielding long passes out of the backfield).

I agree he has been brutal with the first team defense. I would think Paysinger would be a better choice if Beason and / or Kennard are not available.
a lot of players come from some

really, really bad places - Terry Glenn, John Randle, Greg Lloyd
even guys like Tiki Barber
