I mean, you pair him with either All Pro Jon Beason or All Pro Luke Kuechly. He was a great linebacker, one of the best panthers ever regardless of position, one of the best linebackers of his generation, and he was always the second best linebacker on the team. 

Shout out to us finally beating Vick when we drafted him to play safety. 

Davis was also an All Pro. Better than Beason in my opinion.

I thought about the 2004 season for Peppers too. Peppers & Kuechly could have probably filled all the spots.

really would need to comb through and look at Peppers' seasons because he might have a lot of worthy seasons.  Easy to get caught up in the sacks but he has a lot of sneaky stuff like the FG blocks and all that too.

overall i'd agree. 

Not when Beason was first drafted though.

It is interesting that injuries derailed Beason (who was better early on), but somehow TD was better (and had the best part of his career) after his 3 ACL tear...

I viewed TD as much more impactful than Beason.   Not just leadership but role on the D.  Beason was more of a tackle machine than anything.  That was his trademark #.  Tackles.  He had some INT too.  But for a front 7 player I think Beason still lacked some playmaking.  Granted he played MLB but I still thought he was a little light in a lot of areas. 

Jon Beason finished his NFL career with a total of 4 sacks and 3 FF.  I mean, Thomas Davis had more production in one season in those key categories.

Beason just wasn’t big enough to hold up. 
 

dream lineup would have been him accepting the switch to WLB but they did right by him. Situation worked out for everyone.

True.  Beason simply wasn't big enough to play MLB in the traditional 4-3 like Kuechly was, and he didn't have near the pass rush ability of TD.

I think his size was a reason for the injuries.  Beason was underrated in pass coverage though.  He had several big picks I can remember to seal games.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
