Its been talked about for some time during this season. New York Giants rookie wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr was projected to be good, otherwise he wouldn't have been taken 12th overall by Big Blue last June in the Draft. Over the past few weeks, Beckham has really started coming into his own and has began establishing himself as a major weapon and threat for the Giants in the pass game.
In the seven games he has played to this point, Beckham Jr has 41 catches for 609 yards and 5 TD's. None, and I repeat none, of this five TD catches this season were as pretty as the one he grabbed Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys. It was one of the most insane things I have ever seen. Don't believe me? Watch and judge for yourself:
This has got to be catch of the year in the NFL this season. Think about this. Beside the fact that it was an INSANE one handed grab, consider the situation in which he did it. The catch came early in the 2nd quarter, on a 43 yard heave from Eli Manning. The catch game the Giants a 14-3 lead. It was made on Sunday night in a huge divisional game against a bigtime division rival in the Dallas Cowboys. All in all this will go down as the catch of the year, without a doubt.
Hell not only was this the grab of the year, it was a major statement of arrival for Odell Beckham Jr. even though the Giants, who now sit at 3-8 on the season, are out of the race for the NFC East title, they are still somewhat worth watching. Why? Easy this guy. Odell Beckham is a good enough reason to keep tuning into Giants games the rest of the season just to see what kind of catches he is going to make next.
I promise they won't be nearly as nice as the one he had against Dallas which is hands down the grab of the year in the NFL this season!
