FrankoElTanko Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Not that you can predict injury but assuming there may have been something lingering beforehand, I am glad that we did not get out in front of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I love and hate this time of the year. Love football is back, scared to death with every practice we lose a key player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Safe to assume the Giants were able to give him a full physical before selecting him in the supplemental draft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 If losing him is a "big hit" for them, they were already in major trouble. He hadn't even practiced once to see if he was any good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerJ Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I don't like the period between minicamp and training camp at all. We're still in it except for the teams that got to start early because of the HOF game. Aside from a few signings (including those high draft picks), the only news is likely to be bad news: a player has a traumatic injury from skate boarding or water skiing, or gets accused of domestic violence. It's true that there are going to be a lot more injuries in training camp (fortunately, most will be minor dings) but there will be lots of news that isn't bad to counterbalance the bad stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 This sounds like a Kiko Alonzo situation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 In general, NFL places way too much emphasis on muscle building and power; should be much more concerned with flexibility, especially at a position like CB. Interior linemen? OK, power is important, but flexibility is key to staying on the field. These guys are so tight and muscle bound they sit down the wrong way at the lunch table and something pops.

eball Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Doug Whaley was asked to comment -- he said the Giants "knew all along" there was a shoulder issue that would need to be addressed next offseason but they thought Beal could play through it in 2018. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love football is back, scared to death with every practice we lose a key player. I agree...this is why it is so difficult to read the predictions about win/lost record before the final roster is set. The loss of an Aaron Rodgers or a Todd Gurley would have a major impact on your season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 That sucks!! Beal is a real talent. I guess from the Giants standpoint though it isn’t the worst thing. It will be like drafting him next year. By using the supplemental pick they probably got him later than they would have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
