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


PanthersUnited

Recommended Posts

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.

    • It depends on what version of bad we are getting. Can't have the locker room tearing apart over it.
    • I think that depends more on how high our pick is. If we have the 1st, 2nd or even 3rd pick i think we are drafting a QB rather than shopping FA market for a QB1. Curious if we’d be reluctant to start a rookie QB week 1 though. 
    • Hurney 2.0 and Fitts were so bad I don't know if it was intentional or they were that abysmally clueless. Fittershits panicked repeatedly being on the back end of positional runs while Hurney couldn't evaluate anyone outside of the 1st.  I can't figure out why Plummer still has a jersey. There's no reason. Dalton brings nothing to the table. If another QB gets cut that has given a glimmer of anything better than what we have, we should look, and that goes for every position.  I cant get over how much different this team could have been with a competent GM and having accepted the Rams offer for Burns. This franchise could have gone in a totally different direction.
