Beason traded?

[4Corners]

Does he make guys like Luke better? In the film room/sidelines/etc? I think so....and that IMO is worth more than a 7th.

 

Does he? are u in the film room/sidelines/etc and can vouch for this?

 

7th rounder does sound shitty for him though. not gonna argue against that. people are on notice and we will see how the team responds on Sunday.

I notice you didn't say field. So at this point, he's become a coach/cheerleader?  We've got those.

 

We've also got players like TD to fill the same role you just described, while actually playing well on the field.

All HAIL CRA

[TheRumGone]

you were banging the drum in the offseason about if there was any possible way to get rid of beason you would be all for it.

 

now DG has done it and you bring up FILM ROOM STUDYING. jesus christ you will find anyway to bag on DG

In thee end, It is what it is...could boost morale too def a reality shock for players to play the best they can every down

[rayzor]

Sideline guys and role players still can have big impacts.....if they were vets who were good at one time.

Id rather have a good leader, smart film room guy, motivator who was a roleplayer/backup than a 7th. Part with a respected guy in the offseason rather than in season.

 

no argument here.

 

but what good were we doing him by keeping him on our sidelines? what was he proving? he was going to be hitting the market after this season anyway. what good was it going to do him for him to be that guy who had a good attitude on the sidelines but who couldn't get on the field?

 

forget that 7th pick. it's irrelevant because it was essentially all we could get (or whatever pick we get).

 

what matters is that him being here was doing nothing for him. he was a cheerleader and a guy who was smart in the classroom...but he wasn't proving himself. he wasn't accomplishing anything. all he was doing was being there, waiting for those 5 minutes a game he might be asked to get on the field.

 

in new york he's got a better chance to play. in trading him, we are giving him the best thing for him. the compensation we get doesn't matter as far as respect goes. letting him go somewhere where he has a better chance of playing and can make a case for him going forward is a sign of respect.

Pretty sure that a 7th round pick isn't going to garner the respect that a 3X Pro Bowler and 2X All-Pro LB is going to garner...

 

Well, if we didn't make the trade, we'd have neither next year...which is what he was talking about.......

[Swaggasaurus]

But if Beason is gone who takes his spot at Gross' kickball game? So sad  :(. I also hear Beason sings the chorus for "Kumbaya"  and tells the best ghost stories at team camping trips.

[FootballMaestro]

we need new leaders. new people need to step up. what good is a leader if he can't ever back it up? actions speak louder than words. 

 

True. 

 

He is/was a crippled young leader. 

 

That's a big difference, than a old one,  you can respect as a sage (who doesn't play). Beason is young enough, to where you expect him to play an contribute. Him just being a motivator, wouldn't be fair to him, or the Panthers. It's good he gets a chance to prove himself again with the Panthers. 

 

Panthers have too many good LB's to wait for Beason to get good again, if ever. This is especially true when you consider the Panthers are 1-2, and haven't made the playoffs in years.

STOP being ridiculous bro. Watch your mouth before you disrespect Beason like that!

You know good and damned well that he lead this defense for years! Don't try and play that card here

[rodeo]

Mind as well

 

why do people say this?

[Floppin]

I don't think a team should give up more than a 6th or 7th for him.

I just don't think you trade him mid season for nothing. He has value to Luke and our D even if not a starter. He is part of our chemistry for 2013 IMO.

As far as owing Beason something? In terms of competition next year if we released after the season. We gave him a fat contract and he was hurt the entire time.... and should of known better bc of the injury concern....sounds like we treated him pretty well.

 

For someone who generally argues from absolutes, you sure are going into the obsequious realm of intangibles here.....you know...poo that's 100% conjecture on your part and in no way verifiable. Emotionally driven argument and whatnot....

[FootballMaestro]

So why not just let him walk...

 

He could be Luke's backup this year, but instead we trade him for a sack of sh*t.

 

Because you would get nothing for him if you "let him walk". 

 

We have no idea what that 7th rd pick (or whatever it is) will be. That's better than what Beason gives you now, which is nothing, I'm sad to say.
