Way to go Beanie! Stay healthy and he's going to be one of the good ones.

I love watching him play. If he can stay healthy look out!

I'll second that. Watching him run is exciting. Proud to be a Buckeye.

It might just be my fondness for the color red and all its shades, but Beanie looks realllly good in a Cardinals Uni!

Wells reminds Cardinals why they drafted him
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on August 29, 2009

Chris "Beanie" Wells has barely practiced since being drafted, staying in the news primarily because his nagging injuries and disappointing offseason provided a contrast to second-year back Tim Hightower, who has exceeded expectations in training camp.

On Friday night's dress rehearsal for the regular season, Wells showed why he's the back with a first-round pedigree. As mentioned in Josh Alper's one liners, Wells rushed for two scores and 46 yards on only seven carries in his pro debut.

Wells quickly turned the corner on his first run, an 11-yard carry that showed off his excellent speed for his size. On the same drive against Green Bay's starting defense, Wells showed outstanding footwork and vision to wriggle free for a 20-yard touchdown run.

It was the type of highlight run that Arizona backs haven't made in recent years; getting more than just what was blocked. Wells scored again in a short-yardage situation, showing patience as he waited for a hole to develop.

Wells says he isn't 100% recovered from his ankle injury, but you wouldn't know it.

"I have to get back out there Monday and get my timing right and get my ankle better," Wells said. "I felt like I didn't have a lot of burst tonight."

If Wells can just stay on the field, he could be pretty scary when that "burst" is back.

Running back Beanie Wells was impressive in his preseason debut. On his 20-yard touchdown run, he read his blocks well and made two nice cuts. "I had a lot of butterflies going," he said. "It was good to be out on the field." Wells said he's not 100 percent recovered from a sprained right ankle. "I have to get back out there Monday and get my timing right and get my ankle better," he said. "I felt like I didn't have a lot of burst tonight."

RB Power play..Beanie's favorite run. That last cut was sick.

[RB07OSU]

Great game for Beanie and the 20 yard TD was a thing of beauty. Go get 'em.

[Bleed S & G]

Damn, looks good.. looks like Beanie.

Just rediscovered this post, from like half a year before the draft. Say what you will about ESPiN, but they had some inside information on that one.
