JG2008 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) What happened to the supposed Magical blazingly fast 1st step of Vic Beasley ----you know--- the reason we drafted him even though he weighs 80 to 100 pounds less than most lineman he was going to go up against --everyone said he makes up for that with out manuevring the bigger lineman with the most awesome 1st step off the ball that scouts had seen in a long time --that his amazing physical speed and agility would give him an edgeRegardless of how many sacks he doesn't have at this point because he's adjusting to scheme and the NFL in general Through 8 games so far have you honestly seen this amazing 1st stephe is supposed to have? because I just don't see that part of his game. He seems no quicker with a 1st step off the ball than the 300lb lineman he is going up against and demonstrates no ability to maneuver around them with speed or quickness after the 1st step either Edited November 2, 2015 by JG2008 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Minotaur Zebra Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Dude, the guy is a rookie. Be glad he has gotten any sacks / stats this year. "Da Gawd" Jadeveon Clowney still hasn't done jack ****. Beasley needs an offseason of NFL bulking up (read: steroids) to get into playing shape, just like Freeney, Irvin, etc..

Begotten912 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 i'm willing to give him at least a full season or 2 to show up. he'll either pan out or he won't but what's done is done, he's here now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lornoth Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 His first step is actually pretty impressive. He just hasn't figured out how to capitalize on it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnasty Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Beasley will come around, IMO. There's just too many problems elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazoo Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 It must really suck to not have a TV to enable you to actually watch Beasley play.Beasley has an excellent explosive first step.Clowney was drafted last year and Beasley this year, yet Beasley has twice as many career sacks as Clowney.

Windy City Falcon Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Beasley has been a big letdown. He doesn't give a lot of effort. Ray Lewis said he didn't have enough fight for him to like himLast week his casual jogging off the field was the epitome of what he's been this season. He quits playing if a play gets past him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tldr Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Beasley never had an amazing first step. You're thinking of Shane Ray. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monolith2001 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 He still has that amazing first step. It does however take more than one step to get a sack. I'm calling it..the next person to create a negative Beasley thread is going to suffer from a nasty bout of diarrhea in front of lots of people with no bathroom in sight.

Sponge Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Move Beasley to OLB for the love of God. Let the front defensive 4 lock up with the Oline while Beasley uses his speed to cut through and get the sack. It's not rocket science.

Oldskooler Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Dude is a rookie and will learn the hard way how to compete at the professional level. Give it time.This is true, and I agree with him needing a year or so to learn technique and how to use leverage to convert his speed into power.Where I disagree with brightsiding Beasley is his stated goal of keeping his weight at or below 240 pounds. lEO or not, that is just unacceptably light for a DE.

Tuggle'2 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 You guys are killing me with your expectations of rookies... Especially a pass rush specialist. I mean you all either forgot how the game and the NFL works or you can't be any older then around 20. It is batship crazy to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskooler Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 You have been here quite a while swiftkickDoes this mean I'm NOT "swiftkick" now? You're really pathetic. Any poster who says something you don't like (which would be anything other than happy-happy-joy-joy for every single aspect of the Falcons) is immediately called "swiftkick". Whoever this dude is, he is all kinds of in your head. He owns you. Why he would want to own you is the only mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
