[wesley17]

do you think are defense would be better like this or would it hurt beasons development in the tampa 2.

answer @ no and me @ lol

[Delhommey]

Only if we put Deangelo at the slot and put Stewart at FB and Goodson at RB.

SO MANY WEAPONS!

Although, I am sure that this whole thread will be decried as "stupid". This would actually not be a bad idea, but it is too late in the season to ask one of your best players to switch positions.

If Davis is not re-signed then this would possibly be a good way to get our best players on the field. Especially in this type of D, where your Will LB is your "playmaker". Connor is talented but does not have quite enough athleticisim to play OLB, he is better in the middle. Beason would probably be a better fit in this D at Will, because he is a big time playmaker.

However, taking Beason out of the MLB position would be risky because he is one of the best in the league. It would probably benefit him in the long run though.

ugh

While Beason is a wonderful athelete and one of the best in the league at what he does, his skill set is rather dependant upon the other players around him doing their jobs well (see: his production with no solid interior line earlier in the season). Being in the middle, the offense has to deal with the rest of our defense leaving him clean to do what he does best. This works well with Beason's natural leadership and physical abilities making MLB the perfect posistion for him. Move him to the outside and it would become more about personal production rather than team production and, while I think he would do well, I would rather him lead from the center where I think he would feel more comfortable and be more productive and valuable.

not a good idea

not a good idea

No, but an interesting one. Brings up a lot of thoughts of why certain players are good at what they do.

It would work and probably work well...with a whole offseason planning on it.

See, I disagree. It would require Beason to build every defensive series around him (in our current scheme), where as from the middle he builds the defense around the rest of his players. He can be a more effective leader from the middle and that is the quality that, in my mind, sets him apart and makes him elite.

I Looked at this thread anticipating a suggested line-up of Beason Connor and Diggs

But I get this...

[PhillyB]

what grade our you in?

[PantherPhann89]
