Sorry folks, this seems like the only new stuff out there pending Tuesday's meeting. Things are really slow. Anyway, Jones ranked his top 10 linebackers and Beason was ninth. Of course Jones ranked himself the seventh best so maybe it is not that great.

Beason is in top 5 easily and is probably #1 underrated, which constantly gets shoved in his face by idiot by remarks like these and fake pro bowl bullpoo. I hope this fuels him to become the next Ray Lewis.

Looks like he ranked Beason 10th and London Fletcher 9th.....

I like Jones' personality, but to say he is better than Beason is crazy talk. Homer opinion? Maybe, but I just dont see his skill surpassing JB.

Sorry bro but Fletcher is one of the best linebackers to play the game. He is highly underrrated due to the fact that he's played on some pretty rotten teams over the years. He hasn't missed a game in his entire NFL career. And i believe since he joined the NFL he leads the league in tackles (1,244) having more than Ray Lewis.

I feel like most people judge linebacker's on sack's like they do defensive end's, which is truly unfair due to the fact that not ever linebacker plays in a 3-4 defense and sees their stats inflated because they have holes the size of the Grand Canyon to run through to make the sack. I personally think tackles and passes defended are the stats to look at for a linebacker because it shows their ability to stop the run (most of their tackle's come from stopping the run) and passes defended (shows their ability to play the pass).

Here is where Beason ranks among linebackers in those categories since he has been in the NFL.

2007

Tackle's- 3rd

Passes Defended- 19th

2008

Tackle's- 3rd

Passes Defended- 4th

2009

Tackle's- 4th

Passes Defended- 4th

2010

Tackle's- 13th

Passes Defended- 8th

I don't see how this guy is not considered a top 5 linebacker in the NFL, it's just mind boggling.

Eh, he's the Jessie Tuggle of his generation. Take that how you will.

And for a linebacker, Dhani Jones is a decent photographer. That's about all I can say for that.

Beason is going to have a break out year this year and that's saying something, at least to the rest of the country.

No, I should have worded that differently, I meant Dhani Jones himself.

      NFL top 10 Defenses

      By Basbear · Posted

      I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce.

      Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
