Beason/Keek/Davis that's a dream team lb core right there. Glad to hear he wants to stay. Probably gonna have to restructure that contract a bit, but Jons a team player. It'll get worked out.

2-3 more pieces we have a Top 10 Defense with solid depth.

I love you Jon Beason!!!

[nctarheel0619]

Jesus is his contract retarded.

[Marguide]

He probably will re-do his contract, but to insinuate that we need to let a guy go as good as Beason is absurd. Apparently everyone just chose to forget about Davis's return from 3 ACL injuries. If Davis can return from multiple injuries in less than two years then so can a younger and more athletic Jon Beason.

Here's the problem...we have $12 million of unallocated bonus we have to absorb even in a restructure, so he is going to have to be willing to play for peanuts. We could, for example, sign him for 4 more years. The $4 million per year unallocated from the old contract would hit our cap each of the first 3 years of the new deal without him getting even $1 in cash. So how much more could we afford to absorb against our cap so he could have some salary? Maybe $1 million for those first 3 years? Do you think Jon wants to play starting LB for a million a year?

Hurney did a good job of painting us into a corner on this one.

Johnson - Star - Hardy

It's amazing how many people thought Hurney was a "cap genius" when the only way he could finagle the cap was by utilizing the signing bonus, and boy did he play that fuging card to death

welcome to cap hell folks

yea right. If we switch to a 34 D, TD and Anderson are pretty much gone and Johnson and Hardy all of a sudden just became olbs. And lets quit the Star talk. We took our self out of the Star talk.

I'd love to have Beason next season. Just take a pay cut 52, for the better of this team.

[jarhead]

Beason is and has been a great leader and favorite of the fans...If anyone can come back its him.These things have a way of working themselves out ....just like TD

[teeray]

This article makes me hopeful, but I have little doubt that any GM is going to either have to restructure Beast, trade him, or cut him.

He probably won't have the opportunity to earn that contract.

My fear is that we ask to restructure, he politely declines, and we have to move him or cut him.

I hope that is not what happens. I want him here, and he wants to be here. I hope we can make it work. But it is doubtful that can happen at his current salary.
