NFL.com Article on Jon Beason

Well if he doesn't return as the elite player we know him to be, then wouldn't you say his prior injury has certainly been a detriment to his career?

I don't think that's the case at all, though. Beason's hard work, determination, and football smarts will certainly allow him to come back from this injury. Maybe he won't always be 100%, but even a 90% Jon Beason is better than 99% of the NFL's MLBs.

K Ill start. Now way in fuggin hell the Luke ever "replaces" Beason unless he has a career ending injury.

Luke is a top 10 pick. If he pans out and Beason never returns to what he was....he will replace Beason.

No he isn't

look at how average he looked when asked to make a position change a couple years ago and get out of his routine. Lower a health % and it impacts a players instincts.

Leadership and communicating has alrready been deemed has necessary components to his positon by Rivera. If he returns at 80% he will still be our starting MLB.

An 80% Beason could start off the year but won't keep the job long playing at 80%.

Which is why Luke is learning the MLB spot. Beason is also learning....he doesn't have a lot of experience playing in this scheme either. He has an NFL edge...but not the edge of playing in a scheme for years

Its not a job for the losing once a man is put in a leadership position. He is either the guy, or he gets traded and shipped off.

We have to wait and see how he performs but Jon Beason IS our Defense. His mentality and passion and intensity cannot just be replaced. I was confused when we drafted him but that just proved to myself that I'm not employed by the NFL for a reason.

    • By all indications, the surgery was "minor." I know with all surgeries and especially back surgery there can be complications, but I think the whole time Tremble did this with the expectation he would be able to be back for Week 1 It sounds like he will be ready to start back in team drills next week. He's a veteran who knows the system so I'm sure that helps. I still can't imagine he will play a normal workload early on though 
    • Maybe. He was pretty good in college before a bad injury. He had a good preseason last year as a UDFA in Washington and was on their practice squad all year so they obviously saw something worth developing. He signed a futures deal with the Panthers earlier this year, and everything about him has been increasingly positive. Tremayne has gotten a decent amount of time with the ones, and a lot with the twos for someone that doesn't have a chance. He's the only other 6'4" plus WR on the team, plays ST, and is a more natural backup to the X receiver position than David Moore. That was my thinking behind it. But he may well end up as one of the last roster cuts. If so, I do hope they can bring him back to the PS. But I personally think there's a good chance he could be claimed given his ST ability and what hes shown at WR.
    • That was my thought originally, but so many of the beat writers have mentioned keeping 7 WRs in conversations that I went with that, at least for the purposes of this projection. But you're right that historically defensive guys who were standouts at ST have tradionally gotten those last spots
