Geremy Davis: Another Reese draft flop?

Can you?

.

Aren't flops. God people are so clueless about football

Dais' selection and play so far? IMO another dreadful lower-round pick by Reese.

Project turns out to be a project. Dog bites man.

.

Then why even bother picking in the 6th round? Why doesn't Reese just trade the pick away?

but it is sad to look at the Giants middle round pick history http://www.drafthistory.com/index.php/teams/giants

White came from GB so he is familiar with the system. Davis is a physically gifted athlete who is coming from UConn. God forbid him for not stepping in in the first 10 games of his career. When he has been given an opportunity he has played well.

Most draft picks statistically need 2-3 years to contribute in significant fashion.

Geremy was a sixth round pick, I suggest you research how many of them actually turn into the type of player you believe he should be ten games into his NFL career.

And had a solid preseason. I wouldn't give up on him just yet, Geesh!

How did you do your first month your first job?

this is a quick way to make sure nobody takes your opinions seriously ever in the future,

Put my drill sergeant in a headlock and made him tap, you?

Davis does not have the start that Beckham had last year...



jackass

I thought Davis was playing well in pre-season and had a few nice grabs so far this year. I don't see him getting great separation, however, he could be a decent move the chain type, who has good hands. Big, strong bodied receiver who looks like he can box out defenders for the ball too. He'll be a nice 4 or 5 type on the depth chart IMO. Reese did a nice job finding him in the 6th round.

And not in game during a bye. Yeesh.

I'd put it at 78%.

A sixth round pick isn't a pro bowler after 10 games? Reece sux!!!

Myles White already had 2 years learning a similar offense

What a terrible post

Steve, why don't you go ahead and post all the amazing middle round picks consistently made by a better GM. Go ahead, we'll wait

Someone to compete for WR spot particularly if Randle isn't resigned.

to this article.
Link - ( New Window )

a "churn" list of draft picks that are
1) no longer with the Giants
2) on another team
3) out of the league

Not a lot of speed on the field

?

pretty much tries to find a way to shit on Reese wherever possible, I guess this is the way he decided to do it this week.

I give the creativity a low mark.

.

And flop should not be in the same sentence

should be valued. Outright, gross ignorance ought to be banned. This guy contributes nothing to the board...just a sad loser imposing his frustrations when he has a chance to get some attention.

and whose departure seems to have inspired much rage here on BBI, was inactive most of his rookie season.

IIRC there was talk on BBI that he was a "bust," too.

Why?

Here's a hint - threads like this. Ban this fool already.

but the guy wasn't even expected to be drafted so we could have used the pick on someone else and more than likely could have gotten him as an undrafted free agent. So it can be viewed as another reese head scratcher.

..... give the guy a little time. He flashed so wait and see.

That's nothing Beckham was called a bust too because he hurt himself and did not smile on the bench. True story.

no one a crystal ball. You pick who is #1 on your draft board. I think Davis sticks in the NFL he just st isn't going to be a #1

but this is a bit of a reach. He is obviously untouchable and we are all suffering the consequences, including ELI and TC. We could have/ should have done much better these past years.

Ditto

yep you go by who you like. They thought he was worth a 6th as opposed to viewing him as a prospect that was ranked to go undrafted so we'll see if it was worth it. Hopefully so.
We need WR help randle although dinged up is very sketchy to have to depend on. Beckham needs some help out there.

and every one of them is a Pro Bowl candidate

you have to go by your draft board. Our last two drafts seem solid.

What hurt us this year was losing JPP and Beatty. Flowers is holding his own but a year at RT would have been better.

this site had an ignore feature.

Terrell Davis were both 6th rd. picks .... just sayin' ... ;)

I think Geremy Davis was trying to crack the starting lineup after Randle started to get gimpy. He's a young player ... who may end up seeing some more time ... and maybe not. I would rather Hakeem Nicks out there (a proven veteran) at this point than Davis. But I don't think he is a flop or a bust at this point.

it's too soon for the "verdict" on G. Davis.

and rookie. Not expecting much but it is odd that he is on the 53 man roster for a team with little at WR and never sees the field. He must be totally lost as far as the offense goes. Or he sucks at WR and is only on the team for specials or because the FO insisted.

Yes because we all want our 6th round picks to be Tom Brady in their rookie season.....so you are correct that person is a dipshit.

LOL

Just for fun, here are the ten picks after Geremy Davis. Four of the ten were waived before the season, and two are on IR. Note that Davis has appeared in as many games as the next eight picks combined.

11(187) Redskins - Spencer, Evan WR Ohio St.
Waived/injured by Washington. Signed to the Bucs' practice squad. (His father is their RB coach.)

12(188) Bills - Steward, Tony OLB Clemson
Has dressed for four games as a special teamer. No tackles.

13(189) Browns - Gaines, Charles CB Louisville
Made his first appearance in Cleveland's loss to Pittsburgh, forcing a fumble.

14(190) 49ers - Silberman, Ian OG Boston College
On a team desperate for line help, Silberman hasn't dressed since the opener.

15(191) Eagles - Shepherd, JaCorey CB Kansas
Touted as a steal in camp, Shepherd tore his ACL in August and is on IR.

16(192) Chargers - Philon, Darius DT Arkansas
After appearing in San Diego's first four games, Philon went on IR with a hip injury.

17(193) Vikings (from Chiefs) Dubose, B.J. DE Louisville
Dubose was waived by the Vikings and signed to their practice squad.

18(194) Bills O'Leary, Nick TE Florida St.
O'Leary was waived by the Bills and signed to their practice squad.

19(195) Browns (from Texans) Johnson, Malcolm TE Mississippi St.
Johnson is the Browns' primary fullback. He has caught three passes for fourteen yards.

20(196) Eagles Evans, Randall CB Kansas St.
Evans was waived by the Eagles and signed to their practice squad.

The 197th pick was safety Derron Smith. He hasn't done anything in Cincinnati, but he was a well-regarded prospect at a position of pre-Draft need for the Giants. By round six, however, the Giants had already picked Collins and Thompson, and they had Berhe, Jackson and Taylor returning. So drafting another young safety wasn't a realistic option, even if they liked Smith.

being our next David Tyree. A utility receiver and special teams player.

So far he has been just that. Anything above that expectation is gravy.

I'm sorry but this is an awful thread. Think about it.
