Andrew Adams may have been overlooked will stay in rotation

Elite Mobster #32 : 9/30/2016 12:14 pm
Andrew Adams #33 is a hard hitting Old School Safety.
The Highlights will show he capitalizes on Quarterback mistakes. The instincts he plays with remind me of having fun on the play grounds. He is adept at coming up to Hit at the line of scrimmage, and the interception at the key time.

Lets not forget the Pre-season Interception to take possession to seal the win against the Jets. His name was mentioned in several pre-draft evaluations. I felt very fortunate the Giants picked him up as a free agent.

Comparatively he runs in there to Hit similar to Behr. The difference is his abilities excel in other facets on the position.

This is a good situation for the Giants, because we are getting Adams experience in the rotation. Once the other guys on the mend are healthy, he may not give up the position too easily! That's a benefit to the Giants overall health.

He is a dumb player who cost us the game with a boneheaded play

He should have been kicked off the team before the game ended last week.

This is reactionary. And the whole argument is negligble because I doubt he'll have any significant impact for us ever again, but he isn't a "dumb player" because of one dumb play.

And he also didn't "cost us the game" in the solitary sense you referred to. He was one of a 1/2 dozen players who had a direct impact on our loss, including our quarterback and best offensive lineman.
It was OBJ's fault

By that logic we should have cut about 5 guys this week.

I like the highlights, but everybody's highlights look good. He also played at UCONN, not exactly a great level of competition there. He'll have his work cut out for him. One thing is for certain, however, he will have to be a lot more disciplined then he showed on the Special Teams,unnecessary, block last week. I for one hope he succeeds and is in the right place, but he will be tested. Our pass rush has to help this week and I know it's been discussed in other threads already. I sure hope he is a guy we're talking about in a positive way after the game and not adding him to the list of CC Browns!

This is a dumb comment. He's a rookie who made a boneheaded play his first game on the active roster. It happens. If it's repeated, it's a problem.

Is healthy and remorseful. We don't have the luxury of parting with his services.
NOT to justify Adams but .....  
Elite Mobster #32 : 9/30/2016 12:57 pm : link
On every punt return, that kind of Hit happens to the Gunner of the opposite team. They run out of bounds, come back and establish themselves inbounds, they are free game.

In the game against the Saints, Victor Cruz was hit by a player who went out of bounds came back in, and caused a fumble against the Saints. Not the same as a punt but, its the same principle.

Again I want to mention the Interception he mad against the Jets! We had no problem with that.
This reminds me somehow

Of that thread touting Cooper Taylor as our answer at FS a day before he was cut.
Hey Cooper Taylor is needed

Still like him in the secondary. Would have liked to see that develop. Currently these new guys are hurt too.

Is the personal fouls penalties during practice all week these guys can't touch a QB or try and hurt a teammate. So why on game days do all those lessons go rght out the window.

Says a cunt who probably never put on a uniform.

That was a blatant flagrant foul on a play he had no involvement in. I guess we should be used to morons playing the game these days though.
Adams  
pjcas18 : 9/30/2016 1:20 pm : link
looked really good in pre-season, around the ball on every play and hit the snot out of a couple players.

No way I'd cut him. My fear would be more than he's plucked off the PS to someone else's active roster if the Giants try and sneak him back to the PS.

If he proves he is in fact Frank Walker II then you let him go, but one mistake, even of that magnitude, is not when you cut someone.
Put on many  
Joey in VA : 9/30/2016 1:21 pm : link
Son, it's football, you hit and get hit. Kicking someone off a team for a penalty? You think that's a good idea when you're down to 2 safeties and down 2 CBs? And I'm sorry you're dumb, I didn't mean it to be offensive, just an observation of your stupidity. Now fuck off.

I think Joey might have worn a uniform.

And if being dumb got me to where I am sitting currently I'll take it. If you had any clue you would have different opinion.

Agree with this 100%. I was happy to hear we'd re-signed him.

UConn currently has 17 guys on active rosters right now. That's better than most.

I'm not feeling the highlights. He looks slow, top heavy, and not terribly athletic. I'd bring back Bennett Jackson...

UCONN plays a fairly tough schedule. It isn't the SEC, but they played Michigan and Boise tough while he was there. They aren't a joke. They may be playing less competition now that the Big East has become whatever the hell they call it, but this kid played a decent level of competition. It's not like he played at Furman or California PA

Considering he doubled down and repeated his opinion in his next clueless post, I think your senses need some fine tuning.

Right. Cause throwing the word "cunt" around constantly is a sure indicator of a successful, brilliant mind.
It wasn't even really a dumb penalty  
Matt M. : 9/30/2016 4:14 pm : link
That is the type of hit that happens all the time; it was a penalty because the punt was blocked, which he may not have been aware of at the time.
I think Will Beatty played at UConn

How about we root for this guy to  
rocco8112 : 9/30/2016 5:32 pm : link
make a big play this week to make up for the penalty. Although I must admit I was cursing and calling for him to be cut when I realized it was a guy just added to the roster who committed the penalty.

That was in the heat of the moment though and prior to realizing there were two flags I was dancing around my living room because of the punt block. When did the Giants last have a key FG block and punt block in consecutive weeks?

Looking at it rationally it would be absurd to cut someone for one play. Hopefully he makes up for it and can contribute.

especially a rookie.

I can see sending a message and cutting a veteran guy like Damontre Moore after 2+ years and his 4th personal foul without the upside production to offset the aggression, but you don't send a message by cutting a rookie/PS call up. IMO.
