Beason Stills Seems Miffed

Implies that Hurney wouldn't have traded him, and makes it sound like Rivera surprised him with the trade. Speaks highly of Jerry Richardson, and talks about his regrets of not winning consistently.

 

I understand that Beason is an extremely proud player, but unless that conversation between him and Rivera never happened then he had no reason to be surprised by the trade. And he wasn't going to see the field at MLB while Kuechly was healthy, so. . .

Yea who does gettleman think he is running this franchise like it's a football team and not some rehabilitation sanctuary for players where IRed guys can rest assured they will be comfortably overpaid as long as Hurney picked them himself and they had like one breakout year at least or something

I really don't know how to take this because of all the things that where said after he left and the comment on how he would like to finish his career as a giant. I think he see's how this team has finally turned a corner and knows he could have been apart of it and truthfully I wish he could have but there was no way we were going to take Luke from the middle and there was now way we were going to pay him MLB money to play WLB.

    • This is a good story--I LOVED his dad as a person and player--I talked to him at an OTA (he was back for his second stint) and he was talking about Moore (the WR from Wake Forest) being so young.  I was with my teenage son and told him, "This is Taylor.  He and I attended the OTAs when you were in Rock Hill as a rookie."  He jokes, "Was he in diapers then?" and laughed.  I imagine Moose III was in diapers when we chatted that day.  So I really would love for this to work out.  However, his stats do not suggest he was anything special in college.
    • I guess there are signs. The combination of the turf toe, hamstring, and knee issues led to questions about his long-term health and affected his draft stock, causing him to fall to the second round.  Here is what I know about a knee injury.  It changes nearly every aspect of your lower body movement.  So the turf toe and hamstring could be related.  It makes him seem injury prone.  I guess the knee was not the most recent injury, so the others could have been a result of favoring the knee. Johnson did not run the 40 at the combine or pro day.  That suggests there is something he feels might drop his value.  So if you downplay the severity of the injury, have a history of possibly related injuries, and refuse to demonstrate (when given multiple opportunities) that you are fully recovered, don't get mad when your stock drops. 
    • I saw numerous reports leading up to the draft that he'd been injury red flagged by numerous teams due to cartilage damage and wear issues that they think could shorten his career.
