Who was better.. Kuechly or Beason in his prime and pre injury?

As I've said a few times before, I didn't actively start following the Panthers until 2010/2011 (no not because of jumping on the Cam bandwagon.) although I do admit that us having the 1st overall pick really made my interest get a lot of steam and since then I have been a avid, die hard fan..

So with that said, besides the Arizona game in 2011 when Beason blew out his Achilles, I never really got to see him in his prime.. So if someone came up to you and gave you a choice between Kuechly or Beason and guaranteed that both would remain healthy and play at high levels, who do you got?

To answer your question, Beason was a great player. He had a ton of heart and had a way to lead men. He was one of the best speakers and was amazing at rallying the troops. He was a little undersized but was pretty darn fast. BUT he was no Luke. Luke will go down as one of the greats if he plays for many years. Not many players will have the opportunity to go down as one of the greats at his position.

Beason was good but probably a bit overrated.  Luke is great and is probably, if anything, a bit underrated.  Luke is on the way to being a first ballot Hall of Famer while Beason, even if he never got hurt, would have probably maxed out at 3-4 pro bowls.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By CmC2k · Posted

      This is a great signing on so many levels by Dan Morgan. Gives us a good starting LT for next year and allows us to focus on truly BPA in the first round. Jordyn Tyson, Kenyon Sadiq, Dillon Thieneman, or even trading down to get more picks are all now on the table.  This will allow us to let Ickey take the full season to heal and rehab and not force use to rush him back before he's ready. There's also the added bonus in that Rasheed Walker is a good LT in his own right and could very well play himself into another contract here at LT. This is a good Oline with Moton, Robert Hunt, and Damien Lewis. Luke Fortner can be serviceable at center but if we nail the Center pick in the draft then this is easily a top 5 unit in the league. I wouldn't be shocked if Rasheed Walker had his best season as a pro here and earned another contract and we transition Ickey to guard or RT. At the very least Walker gives us some leverage at the negation table with Ickey and if Walker signs a big contract with another team, we should be in line for a pretty good compensatory pick.

      This is the best plan. Convince me otherwise

      Worst player should be the easiest upgrade. I will sweat that later.
