Beason responds to Omar Kelly


Mr. Scot

Matt Moore and Jimmy Clausen are our qbs. I'm riding with them. The draft is a roll of the dice.

For the record, my opinion on player input toward roster choices is unchanged. Still, I found this interesting.

Curious though: All those who endorsed Beason's opinion yesterday, do you still do so?

Beason just opted to give the company line.....not much more. Actually, his QBs are Clausen, Pike, and Null aren't they?

Of course not, it doesn't fit their argument now, does it?

Thats the politically correct thing to say. What do you expect Beason to say "screw the guys on the roster i want the QB we dont have?

:shocked:

My question would be what made him say it.

- Did someone on the coaching staff or in the front office get upset?

- Did one or more of his offensive teammates see this as throwing them under the bus?

- Did Kelly misinterpret or misrepresent what Beason wanted to say?

Or did Beason just decide on his own that he wanted to say this?

Hard to say which is true.

Think about that for a moment, though.

If you're a Newton fan, is this the kind of "company line" you want to hear from the team?

Far as I can tell he didn't say who he did or didn't want us to draft in this one. He basically just said Jimmy and Matt are his guys. Which they are.

I don't think it is a company line I just think he realized he should stfu bc he has no idea who we are going to draft and didn't want to cause a rift in the lockeroom if we don't draft a QB or even if we do. Those guys are likely to be on the team and possibly starting. No reason to have people think you don't have faith in those guys.

But none of it matters because I called no take backs yesterday after he said it. So....

    • The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman. 
    • And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!
    • If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
