  post a picI had to do a quick double take because I do not remember seeing this guy at TE last year. Did someone kidnap Belly? Who is this dude? Lol On a serious note he looks almlst unrecognizable. This TE group may be ready to go all out this year. |

I learned a long time ago never give a crap about how great a player looks in shorts and a jersey.
There a dime a dozen.

He is actually a top tear athlete excellent RAS score and was a already pretty stout he knows he is gonna be counted on in the run game and put the work in. I think him and Waller are gonna be a legal combo Belly can block and has good hands and ran a solid 4.6 in the 40. |

We bring it up all the time, but it’s amazing what the first full off-season program in the NFL does for players. They come back looking completely different.

This TE group may be ready to go all out this year. The Waller/Bellinger combo is going to be fun to watch. Gotta be one of the best, if not the best, TE duos in the league. Can’t wait to see how we utilize all these weapons. |

I thought Bellinger for a 4th round pick exceeded his draft status. 85.7 % reception rate is no joke. That is best on the team and 5th in the league.
Is there anything that can be said bad about this kid?

Bellinger put work in this off season. Probably the day after the Giants traded for Waller, lol. I just have a feeling this is going to be the best NY Giant TE duo since Jeremy Shockey and Dan Campbell. That was 2 rough guys to tackle out of the TE spot.
Bellinger and Waller are going to be DJ's bread and butter players after Saquon. Those 3 on quick pass plays somebody should always be open.
I'm starting to get that itchy feeling to lets get going.

Dude looks ripped comparing photos, he was a solid draft pick for the Giants seems workman like in his approach to the game
He is pro and enhancing his skill set which will pay dividends... before his eye injury he was a factor on the offense
Just excited at the prospects at this point, good stuff!

I learned a long time ago never give a crap about how great a player looks in shorts and a jersey. There a dime a dozen. I agree with that but in this situation, we saw him play last year and he showed good hands, an ability to find soft spots in the secondary and a willingness to block at an NFL level. Add that first year to this new and improved body and there is reason to encouraged especially with him as our #2 or #3 TE option.....unless they photoshopped the crap out of those photos. |

I thought he played very well last year, outside of the injuries. If this helps him stay healthy, then great job!! Can't hurt in his blocking either...

I was surprised by how smooth he looked with the ball in his hands. Maybe it was just me? |

I was surprised by how smooth he looked with the ball in his hands. Maybe it was just me? Even with Waller around, I see Bellinger as a 3-catch pg average type of guy. Roughly 50 ball per season. Safety outlet, chains mover, 3rd down/red zone thumper. He's a tough blocker who should only get better at that too. |

It was mostly a random comment. I was getting hype like everyone else in this thread, thinking damn dude is putting in the work, but then thought of Azeez, and was mostly just thinking that nothing is guaranteed to work out in the NFL, even if you’re working your ass off, there’s always damn injuries that can happen |

He has good hands and can block. He won’t be a superstar but he is a good piece for the offense. |

It is going to be tough for opponents to prepare for us in early games because this offense can look entirely different than last year. The OL is upgraded and maturing, the TEs will add elements we haven't seen there since Shockey and with a 2 TE set we can run the ball or pass it. Add in an improved crop of WRs and this could be fun but I am not going to get ahead of myself..........or did I just do that?  |

The kid is already a good TE and will only get better. Being stronger and more physically fit is usually a good thing. He is on his way to becoming a complete NFL TE

That is best on the team and 5th in the league.Is there anything that can be said bad about this kid? In college his senior year the head coach went to him and was like we are sorry for not getting you the ball enough we are going to start making you a major focal point of this offense to help your draft stock. He told the coach our team is not built for that with out QB play that he would rather win games then build his draft stock. His TD run was supposed to be a TE pass he saw it wasnt open and took off that showed me he has a good football IQ as a rookie. A team player with good football IQ, good athleticism, and good worker. I cant really think of one bad thing about him myself. This kid is only getting started cant wait to see what he becomes. |
