Raanan- Beal may be cut soon; unimpressive on/off field

FranknWeezer : 2/12/2021 4:55 pm
Was going to post this in the thread about Scott/Taylor being waived but figured it may get lost and/or warrant its own discussion since we dropped a 3rd on Beal.

WR Da'Mari Scott and DB Shakial Taylor were waived by the Giants. Both players had opted out this season. Wouldn't be surprised if CB Sam Beal is next.

This would make zero sense. Scott and Taylor were both street FA’s. We spent a 3rd rounder on Beal, he’s 24 years old and plays a position that’s a huge need

Not sure there’s a nexus there, but sure, if true, he needs to be moved on from us.


It would have been nice if he felt that way BEFORE the selection (and the $$$ too). But in fairness, continuous (shoulder) injury can make you rethink your future. If his off-field stuff is not listening to coaches, then , goodbye. We already know JJ said he doesnt want players who don't want to be there.

I suspect if Beal had gone through the normal draft process he would have been a mid round pick.

Lots of guys get hyped before the college season. If he’d played the 2018 season, and gone through the exhaustive vetting process with multiple teams reviewing his medicals and interviews, I don’t think he would have been 1st round selection.

This isn't about BJ Hill. It's about what that 2019 third round pick could have been if Gettleman didn't waste it on Beal in the supplemental.

Hell, if we had Dre'mont Jones we may not have needed to trade for LW.

If we had Okereke we have one of the best young LBs in the NFL.

If we have McLaurin, maybe Jones gets 16-20 TD passes.

If we have Winovich we probably have to worry less about edge concerns.

Just another example in a long list of mistakes by Gettleman in his three years.

I really hope Jones breaks through in '21 or we are headed deeper into the football abyss...

You expect at least a competent back up from a 3rd round pick. The guy was hurt and then sucked when he came back. Waste of a pick.



That is simply not true. He was more than competent.



Maybe you and I have a different idea of what competent is. He looked terrible to me and the stats confirm it. In the 4 games where he saw significant snaps he gave up a 76% completion percentage and opposing QBs had a 115 rating against him. 1 career pass defended. Pro Football Reference Advanced Stats - ( New Window )


With the pass rush that we had, he never stood a chance. Plus it was his first taste of the pros. I guess you are going to ignore the combined 23 tackles he had in his final 3 games includimg 1 for a loss.

Look Im not saying he blew it up, but each game, he seemed to belong more. He was very good as a tackling CB and while his first game as a starter he was atrocious, he definitely seemed to be figuring it out to close the season.

Plus I watched all of those games and noticed how much better he got in coverage each game. These were also games where teams were going towards him because they knew he was a rookie and his first two were with Janoris on the other side.

But sure, blanket stats to fill your argument.

fkap : 2/13/2021 8:01 am : link
but I recall several sources putting Beal on thin ice a month or two ago, citing both on and off field issues.

You can certainly re-evaluate any player several years down the road, and say 'we should have caught that', or 'holy shit, how did we not see X was going to be a star'. You can say that about any FA. You can rationalize it as 'the pick, or the contract, didn't set us back too much'.

Perhaps this one seems worse because his already injured shoulder needed surgery almost immediately, ending his rookie season before it began.

Bottom line is that this looks to be yet another checkmark in the miss column. IMO, there's too many of those checkmarks. You can afford to have an average batting record when you're trying to maintain a good team. When you're trying to rebuild, being average just keeps your wheels spinning in the mud.

I will tell you what is really getting ridiculous...these absurd defensive postures about Gettleman or all-things Giants, and telling posters which players they can't discuss because they don't particularly like the story.

Over the last few days posters have mentioned they don't want to hear about signing Nate Solder because they know he was the ONLY option at left tackle. They don't want to hear about how Thomas might not be as good as the other OTs drafted. They don't want to hear about how Denver really didn't want to draft Daniel Jones. They don't want to hear about how Beal looks to be a wasted pick even though he was targeted by DG in the supplemental.

Is there a pre-approved list of NY Giant topics that are allowed to be discussed somewhere? Because if there is then maybe just pin it to the top of the board so we all know ahead of time.

You would hate to actually have posters put-off by threads and topics they don't want to discuss nor do they want anybody else to either.

how an athlete will react when sports becomes their job. And, they have been involved in this endeavor since their teens, so, there may also be an issue of burnout.

His early issues had to do with injuries, not attitude. And, you also have to think how the experience of having significant injuries might change a young athlete's perspective on professional sports.

And so far, this is rumor (not necessarily inaccurate) and it could change his attitude. Stay tuned.

eric2425ny : 2/13/2021 1:16 pm : link
I was really hoping these guys would form a nice duo for us for years to come. Beal in particular has great size for handling taller WR’s.

Costly as well, not just from the standpoint that we burned a first and third on them, but we then had to go out and pay big bucks for Bradberry and will likely have to do the same for a second CB this year in FA or draft someone with another high round pick. Those are the draft misses that are back breaking, but it’s not unique to Gettleman by any means.

I'm not sure how you define solid, but I don't agree.

Of you pro-rate his stats from his 289 snaps/21 targets out to the 632/60 Yiadom fielded in 2020, it's just about even. I'd say that is approaching bad play.

Snaps - 632
Comp - 46
Targets - 60
Yards - 492
PD - 3
INT - 0
TD - 3

It's a small sample, and I'm not saying he wouldn't improve with more time and coaching.

But also remember, even before Baker got cut, the Giants went right to the top of the CB UFA price band fro Bradberry and drafted Holmes.

Grizz99 : 2/13/2021 1:28 pm : link
So muted, that after Banning logic most critics disregard decency.
Now they are going to scan of the league and pull out 3rd rounders that were successful and providing us with another example of hindsight providing m.. Another graphic example of Nirvana by denigration.
Fact number one : Beal hasn't been cut yet. His sabbatical may have been, for all we know, to heal a shoulder that gave him trouble.
Fact number two: by any rational or Fair standard David gettleman has been remarkably successful in the third round.
To put his success in context and to appreciate how difficult it is to find a player in the third round consider the previous 10 years. The Giants did not find one productive player.
Jaylon Hosley, Jay Bromley, Brewer, Jerril Jerrigan,Rames Barden,Trever Brederick(sp?), Ogagabe Odigisuva, Dante Thompson, Damontre Moore, Chad Jones.
Driven by need and abandoned by logic our negative ranters have no choice but to ignore or attempt to discount that list.
It is hard to find players in the third round and afterwards.
What gettleman has given us is more than good. Lorenzo Carter, Matt Peart, DeShawn Ximines, Sam Beale, and B.J. Cartier.
All, as of this writing, have a chance to be contributors and a few, like Lorenzo Carter and Matt Peart, might be impact players.
And still the needy compulsive rant their sad revealing rants.
Almost incredible are the finds after the third round. Gates at no cost not even a late draft pick. Darius Slayton, Julian love, Cam Brown, Coughlin, and several other contributors I'm not going to take the time to look up.
Against this, they desperately hold on to the Barkley pick. And somehow make picking the best player available and the safest a disaster in a year where the alternatives, Sam Donald and Josh Rosen, had unacceptable downsides.
I am a student of human behavior and when the most shrill rantor here labels gettleman a buffoon it has nothing to do with gettleman and almost nothing to do with the Giants. It's about frustration and incompetency almost leading to effective impotency. The put down is an attempt to put up, to make him feel better and more powerful. It also tells you, with a reasonable degree of certainty,that the Ranter is a loser, living what David Thoreau called "Lives of quiet desperation". .
" Look at me I started at Smallville High in my senior year, I watch football for 4 hours a week and I know more then the full-time professionals who are paid Millions, have an unlimited database, and a large staff at their disposal."

Statistically success in the third round is small, so important to not frame anything as tragic from the results.

The outlying factor is Gettleman has a few more 3rd round picks in his three drafts than normal, so you'd hope the odds go up.

Between Carter, Hill, Beal, Ximines, Peart -- only Hill has distinguished himself as a reliable NFL player.

As it easy as it is to project a promising future set of events, it's as easy to predict a bad one. So that's not a very compelling activity.

At least Gettleman has already proven to be better at drafting in the 3rd round than Jerry Reese was. The only hits Reese had in the 3rd round was Mario Manningham. Every other pick turned out to be a bust. Jay Alford might have had a solid career had it not been for injury and the same could be said about S Chad Jones.

At least BJ Hill, Lorenzo Carter, and Matt Peart have shown flashes of being solid players. That's more than you can say about Davis Webb, Darian Thompson, Odighizuwa, Jay Bromley, Damontre Moore, Jayron Hosley, Jerrel Jernigan, Ramses Barden, and Travis Beckum.

christian : 2/13/2021 2:51 pm : link
I agree -- Gettleman's 3rd round picks his first three years are nominally more interesting than Reese's 3rd round picks his first three years.

Reese did not produce much in the middle rounds those first three years (and to be fair, no teams really produce all that much).

This is why I don't register failure in the 3rd round as a tragedy. It's a statistical crap shoot to get much in that round.

I imagined Beal starting and upgrading the #2 CB slot for 2021 and possibly beyond. We shall see but I guess it ain't looking good.

I still believe what killed DG the most is his having to listen to the ownership directive of building around Eli while rebuilding. It is a shame the next Anthony Munoz wasn't available at #2 over Barkley, then we would not have needed Solder.

I thought he never played a down for the Giants in 3 seasons but, Chopperhatch so politely (just messing Chop ; ) ) informed me that he actually played 6 games in 2019.


So he has been here for 48 games and played in 6 ... and sat out the entire 2020 season without an injury?

Not a sign of a determined/passionate football player. We need DBs but, ....

Don't let the door hit you in the ass Sam.

But yet you still have to hope the "light goes off" and he realizes he has to play a solid season as a starter to get big money AND the opportunity on this team is certainly there!

Folks, whenever I've passed up on an opportunity in life I've regretted it deeply later on. I hope Sam Beal sees the light and decides he wants to play.
Sam Beal has had two big opportunities in life already

His first one was when he was drafted by a professional football team several years ago and has done very little with it.

His second one happened last May when Deandre Baker put his starting CB job up for grabs. And Beal subsequently decided he didn't want to be in the running for it.

Will the Giants give him a third swing at the ball?
