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.

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
