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.

      Charlotte Hornets Offseason Moves

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic
