The Ghost of Sam Beal

broadbandz : 11/19/2019 5:20 pm
I just saw on pff he has one of the highest rated grades in our backfield. Does he look good? I can never see him on TV and dont have access to the all 22 tape. Did Dave Getty hit another draft pick or is pff smoking crack again?
I saw him once during the Jets game  
Anakim : 11/19/2019 5:21 pm : link
And that was when he was in on a tackle
He hardly played.

Law of small sample size applies.
Let's see the kid  
Metnut : 11/19/2019 5:28 pm : link
stay healthy the rest of the year (another 6 games) and play well. Then we can consider him a real option for next year.
He didn’t play many snaps

But I only remember noticing him on the field after a play was over. Will probably get to see him more next week. Him showing well would be great moving forward, less of a need to get more CBs in the offseason,
There's always a problem trying to judge a player from small samples.

We'll get a better idea after the next few weeks.
Nothing conclusive, but it does seem that he is not being targeted  
George from PA : 11/19/2019 5:37 pm : link
Like Haley....
He played  
Pete in MD : 11/19/2019 5:44 pm : link
10 snaps in Week 10. It looks like he subbed in for Jenkins a few times since Jenkins played 55 of 65 snaps. Baker played all 65, Ballentine played 44 (nickle), Haley 5 (dime, I guess.)
beal should be playing alot

I never want to see Remmers or Bethea again. If Shurmur keeps trotting them out there he is smoking sherm.

Shurms already announced that the starting 5 will be back this week on the o-line

Over the summer, I was poo-pooed here on BBI for relaying how my friends in Minneapolis were in hysterics over the notion that Giants fans saw Remmers as some sort of a savior ("that's like us as Vikings fans saying, 'and with the signing of Bobby Hart, the final piece to our OL puzzle is now in place'...").

Well, that's fine, but both tackles need to be on a short leash. If either one is stinking up the joint, try Gates.

I don’t know why anyone here thought Remmers was going to be any good. He was the turnstile in three Denver v Carolina super bowl that got Cam killed that game. That was 4 years ago. How would he have gotten better with a bad back?

What he brings is still light years better than anything we have had. I am however excited about Gates, he actually looked damn good for his 1st start.

is the greatest player that has never played
Gates didn't..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 11/20/2019 9:49 am : link
look very good. He was blown up consistently on running plays.

I don't know how anyone can watch the Jets game - see Jones get sacked the number of times he did and see Barkley gain 1 yard and praise any of the OL, but that's what's happened with Gates.

I don't get it. He was manhandled.

Simple, he isn't Remmers....

FatMan in Charlotte : 11/20/2019 9:55 am : link
that's probably it, but I've seen it repeated often that Gates was impressive. I saw a number of plays where he was beaten off the edge and missed on his block for a running play. Other times, he was a yard in the backfield on running plays.

People who shout about remmers sucking didn't get better play from Gates. It's sort of like those praising Wheeler because he wasn't Flowers. He also wasn't very good.
The Rise of Sam Beal  
SgtDog : 11/20/2019 10:04 am : link
Quick summary of Sam Beal and his rise to become the highest graded player in the Giants backfield. Sam Beal's NFL career began July 16, 2018 when the Giants drafted him in the third round of the supplemental draft. Three days later they placed him on IR. On November 5, 2019 the Giants activated him. One year and five months after he was drafted Sam Beal played in his first ever NFL game. The game was a Jersey showdown between the Jets and the Giants two teams that basically just suck. Beal wowed the football world while playing a staggering 10 defensive snaps and 5 special teams snaps. He has been credited with 1 tackle. Surprisingly he has no votes for the Pro Bowl, but he remains optimistic and his head coach agrees with this optimism.

FatMan in Charlotte : 11/20/2019 10:08 am : link
wasn't placed on IR three days after being drafted.He was put on IR a few days into training camp which would've been at the end of July or early August.

Waiting on the ghost of Sam Beal
