You could hear this on statement on Thursday. In the 2015 NFL draft the New York Giants select with the #9 pick Vic Beasley DE/LB from Clemson.

Steve Spagnuolo gets a gift from the football Gods like Ben McAdoo did when the Gmen drafted Odell Beckham Jr last year. Jerry Reese watched Jameis Winston, Leonard Williams, Dante Fowler Jr, Amari Cooper, Brandon Schreff, Marcus Mariota, Kevin White and Bud Dupree come off the board like dominos. With the best defensive lineman (Williams), best DE(Fowler Jr), most physical/NFL ready Offensive lineman & the top two Wide receivers off the board it would make Beasley a no brainer at #9.

Vic Beasley would be a Day 1 starter at weak side Linebacker ala Von Miller/Bruce Irvin in Spags 4-3 defense, a three down player & an immediate upgrade in the Giants Front 7. He has elite athleticism & he is simply a defensive gamechanger who uses his elite speed, strength & leverage to wreck havoc in the backfield. He is athletic and physical enough to cover tight ends and running backs as a stand up linebacker on 1st & 2nd down. His strengths are playing with his hand in the dirt as a DE where he has shown great technique, use of elite speed, play recognition, great use of pass rush moves & leverage to beat college team’s best offensive lineman which Is usually the Left Tackle

Beasley was extremely productive in college and sticks out on tape plus he backed it up with an amazing combine. A healthy Beason with a young Kennard and Beasley would give the giants and athletic and physical linebacking corp while Ayers & Selvie battle it out for the open DE spot & Jenkins & Ellis battle it out to play next to Big Hank. A great run defense early on downs will keep opposing offenses in third and long situations where the giants can unleash their 4 DE rush package with Jpp/Ayers as DTs and Beasley/Moore as opposite Ends.

The biggest reason for drafting Beasley is that he brings something to the table that has been missing on the Giants defense for many years now which is the game changing plays such as the strip sack which Osi Umenyiora made a career out of and helped the Gmen win Two super bowl trophies. Vic Beasley would be insurance if Jpp decides to run for the money in 2016. The Giants can find a starting offensive lineman and a great offensive playmaker who returns kicks/punts in the 2nd and 3rd round but they won’t find a defensive player any where near Beasley’s caliber. If Vic Beasley falls to the Giants at #9 they must pull the trigger without thinking twice as he can make an impact on the defense like Odell Beckham Jr did for the offense in 2014. The New York Giants 29th ranked defense could use the help from the the combine warrior that disrupted plays in the opponents backfield like clockwork.

Holding the 9th overall pick in the NFL draft, the New York Giants will have many options when they are on the clock. Still, with many positions to fill such as safety, offensive lineman, and a pass rusher, Jerry Reese has always had the philosophy of taking the best player on the board.

It seems as though the Giants number one option would be to select offensive lineman Brandon Schreff from Iowa who has been regarded by many as the top player at his position. If Schreff is taken before the Giants pick, and Alabama wide receiver Amari Cooper is still available, would the Giants take him?

Going into the college football season, Cooper was regarded as the best wide receiver in the draft but has seen his stock fallen slightly due to the emergence of Kevin White from West Virginia.

While Cooper would add another tremendous deep threat option for Eli Manning, the Giants do not need to draft another receiver. The G-Men arguably have one of the deepest receiving corps in the league with Odell Beckham Jr., Victor Cruz, Ruben Randle, and Dwayne Harris. Although Cruz may not be 100% healthy, I doubt the Giants committed a lot of money for Dwayne Harris just to play special teams.

If I were Jerry Reese, I would concentrate more on the needs of this team rather than just going for the best player available. There are a plethora of good DL/LB such as Shane Ray from Missouri and Vic Beasley from Clemson.

Should The Giants Look At Amari Cooper? Cooper is projected to be the first Wide Receiver taken in this years upcoming draft. We can safely say The Giants will be slotted pretty early in the draft for 2015. The Giants have tons of holes to fix, but its tempting to picture Beckham, Cruz, Randle & Cooper. I know you are already screaming for them to draft an Offensive linemen, but this years class of offensive linemen might be poor. Could the Giants have the same plan as last year, Grab a stud WR in the 1st round & O-line in the second. NFL Hall of Fame Wide Receiver Chris  Carter believes in the talent of Amari Cooper, should we?

I don’t know what he’s going to do in the pros, but since Ozzie Newsome, Alabama has the best wide receiver that they have had in the history of their school and his name is Amari Cooper. He is a true junior from Miami and he is fabulous. His ability to run routes- I met Amari when he was in high school at a football clinic and he’s probably the most advanced wide receiver that I have seen at a young age since Randy Moss. He has unbelievable speed, unbelievable demeanor, route running, the sky is the limit.

I think right now on Mel Kiper’s Big Board he’s number three, but he could be the first pick in the draft as a wide receiver and he has everything from a character standpoint that you would on and off the football field. One reason why the University of Miami is not good is they’ve got kids leaving Miami in their backyard going to play for places like Alabama. Amari Cooper, he’s worth the price of admission.

Take a look at some of highlights of Cooper Below.
