Espn's Ten Best Players Returning From Injury (Beason Disagrees)
1. Matt Schaub (Houston Texans)
2. Fred Jackson (Buffalo Bills)
3. Peyton Manning (Denver Broncos)
4. Eric Berry (Kansas City Chiefs)
5. Jay Cutler (Chicago Bears)
6. Andre Johnson (Houston Texans)
7. Mario Williams (Buffalo Bills)
8. JON BEASON (Carolina Panthers)
9. Jamaal Charles (Kansas City Chiefs)
10. Adrian Peterson (Minnesota Vikings)
Jon Beason, LB, Carolina: Quarterback Cam Newton may have hearts a flutter in Carolina, but the return of Beason should have people excited as well. He made three Pro Bowls in his first four seasons. He's been the leader of the Panthers' defense since his arrival as the 25th overall pick in the 2007 draft.
And when he tore his left Achilles tendon in last year's season opener, his absence factored heavily into the Panthers' fielding a defense that ranked 28th in the league in total defense and 27th in points allowed. The addition of linebacker Luke Kuechly, the Panthers' first-round pick, will help that unit. The return of Beason will mean even more.
Impact: Beason returns to the Pro Bowl. Carolina's defense won't be dominant, but it won't be awful, either.
In regards to the Panthers defense not being dominant, Beason tweeted the following...

Williams, Cutler, and Berry are all better than Beason? I don't think so.
Peyton Manning
Matt Schaub
Andre Johnson
Mario Williams
Jon Beason
Adrian Peterson
Fred Jackson
Jay Cutler
Eric Berry
Jamaal Charles
Was thinking ze same.
They picked the right guys, but the order seems random.
inb4 Beason kills everyone
William and Cutler? Yes.
Berry? No.
He was disagreeing because at the end he says carolinas defense won't be bad with beason but not dominant....he disagrees with the not dominant part
I know, I made the original post lol but you can guarantee a guy like Beason always strives to be first.
interesting that you picked those 3 names instead of fred jackson or matt schaub.
Schaub is better than Cutler and if I was building a team and needed a quarterback or a middle linebacker I would pick Schaub over Beason. Jackons' 5 yard per carry stat over the past 3 years speaks for itself. Just to see how that stacks around the league, Chris Johnson 4.6, Adrian Peterson 4.6, and Maurice Jones-Drew 4.5.
Lol my bad dude...didn't see that
DeAngelo is 5+ average for his whole career, which also speaks volumes. Yet people here hate him (or his contract).
DeAngelo & Jim Brown are the only players in NFL history with a 5ypc avg min 996 carries. But he is 29yo so he sucks.
Yes Mario Williams and Eric Berry are better than Jon Beason
Exactly. Plus he was over 5 yards per carry over the last 3 years, in spite of a poor (for him) 4.1 avg in 2010 when we had no offense and he ended the year on IR.
Forget the contract. I just don't understand why he is held in lower regard than just about any other "star" on the team. It is a bit of a mystery to me.
