Beason traded?

That doesn't mean the 6.2 million cap hit disappears when we trade him. A lot of that is from the signing bonus and other bonuses that have already been paid to him. We take the cap hit for that whether he's here or traded. The only thing we are saving is the remainder of his base salary (13/16 of 1 million).

 

yeah, that's right. I've been drinking. I got all excited without thinking.

What better team to make a trade with

 

Gman is the real deal.  He smells blood in the water with his former team who is getting REAL heat in NYC.  He uses their obvious panic to unload a guy with a big name, but not much to back that up anymore, sadly.

 

He stuck it to them, not the other way around.

 

GMan is running this thing like a business and that is the way it should be done.  Everyone liked Beason for what he WAS, not so much for what he can contribute any longer.  Good luck to him.

 

By the way, the Giants are having trouble scoring, but, they are not far out of their division, due to it being the worst in football, so they will NOT be getting rid of playmakers, just trying to plug holes on defense.

 

Good move for Gman

 

Beason used to be a great player. But he's a washed up version of his old self. As little as Beason has played the past few years, and as poorly as he's played when he's been on the field, I view this trade as effectively getting an extra draft pick for almost nothing. Yeah, it's a late-round pick, but I'm confident Gettleman can find a fresh young talent to use that pick on.

from my understanding Beason restructured his contact earlier this season which means he was going to be an UFA next season and since we already absorbed his bonus we wont have any cap casualties with this trade.

 

am I wrong?

Spotrac has us at 104 million, And I am not sure if that is counting are rollover we still have now.

oh so you've been in the lockerroom! awesome! who would you say is and isn't a vocal locker room leader based on this insider information you've been keeping from us from so long?

 

Congrats on being an ass...

 

I hope it helps you sleep better at night knowing that you are the best e-bully there is...

 

And it's pretty common-knowledge of Beason being the vocal leader of the team...

 

All you have to do is google Jon Beason + Leader and you get all sorts of articles.

you are right.

 

so what we are looking at, even if it was a late round pick is...

1) he was going to be a free agent next year

2) he was no longer going to be a cap casualty

3) he hasn't really played for a couple years

4) he lost his Mike starting job to kuechly and then

5) he lost his Will job to Blackburn

6) didn't even play last week

7) the last time he was on the field for any amount of time he was a liability (not entirely his fault b/c he shouldn't have been in that situation to begin with)

 

so pretty much, we weren't getting much from him now. we haven't gotten really anything from him for a couple years. we likely weren't going to be getting a whole lot from him going forward this season. we weren't going to be getting anything from him after this year.

 

not sure what the problem would be.

 

he's not who he was two years ago. we aren't trading that guy away. we're trading away the guy who has been on the sidelines for the better part of the last two years and is still on the bench.

You weren't getting Nicks (if that's what you're alluding to) for Beason.

One is a functional player. The other is trying to prove he can still play in the league. The Giants did the deal, cause they're desperate for good LB play, and Beason was one of the best.

They desperately needed a Lb, they should be willing to give up something more than a low pick. This is Gman helping to save his former team. He could've trade Beason to anywhere and he had to chose NYG.

      Would you take a chance on Cam Ward?

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I think where they would be picked if redrafted before both classes have played enough football to really tell.  Baker literally looked like a washout with us after Cleveland gave up on him, then turned world beater with the Rams, got a prove it deal with the Bucs and has looked awesome ever since. Asking where Ward would’ve went had he went in ‘24 is just stupid.  I’m no GM, but I wouldn’t have taken Williams #1 either.  I would’ve taken Joe Milton way higher than he went.  I think Shadeur should’ve been a first round pick this year.  Point being, opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.  It’s my opinion that Ward has that “something special.”  I get that feeling that he’ll be an even better pro than he was a collegiate QB because of whatever that quality is.  I think he’s gonna surprise a lot of people, especially being such an under appreciated first overall pick.

      Where do we get our T-shirts and hats? Pretty sure this is the first championship ever in professional basketball or football in Charlotte!

      Nice turnaround for Kon.  I’m still a little worried about his ability to create for himself and others, but it was SL.  Come regular season, he will playing a much different role and shots will be there for him.  He showed some reason for hope - and not just him, but the whole squad.  I suppose for the first time ever, we have drafted and acquired enough young talent that we actually not only competed for once, but won the whole thing in summer league.     Kon, Simpson, and Sims made all the difference.  Almost every year prior I felt we always struggled because we usually didn’t have a floor general/real PG to get us into offense.  This was such a breath of fresh air.  And look at us!  We finally are champions!😂
