Based on his chiseled frame and size, the term “looks good getting off the bus” would most definitely apply to Georgia’s Robert Beal Jr. The 6-4, 247 pound edge rusher looks every bit the defensive end/3-4 outside rush linebacker.
Beal’s testing numbers at the NFL Combine was superb, as well, which will draw attention from all 32 teams — especially his 4.44 40-yard dash.
But in terms of collegiate production, there’s plenty to be desired. Beal couldn’t fight up a stacked Georgia defensive depth chart, despite having ideal size and speed. And when he earned snaps, his play was a rollercoaster of splash plays and red-flag miscues.
