Although, I am sure that this whole thread will be decried as "stupid". This would actually not be a bad idea, but it is too late in the season to ask one of your best players to switch positions.

If Davis is not re-signed then this would possibly be a good way to get our best players on the field. Especially in this type of D, where your Will LB is your "playmaker". Connor is talented but does not have quite enough athleticisim to play OLB, he is better in the middle. Beason would probably be a better fit in this D at Will, because he is a big time playmaker.

However, taking Beason out of the MLB position would be risky because he is one of the best in the league. It would probably benefit him in the long run though.

While Beason is a wonderful athelete and one of the best in the league at what he does, his skill set is rather dependant upon the other players around him doing their jobs well (see: his production with no solid interior line earlier in the season). Being in the middle, the offense has to deal with the rest of our defense leaving him clean to do what he does best. This works well with Beason's natural leadership and physical abilities making MLB the perfect posistion for him. Move him to the outside and it would become more about personal production rather than team production and, while I think he would do well, I would rather him lead from the center where I think he would feel more comfortable and be more productive and valuable.

It would work and probably work well...with a whole offseason planning on it.

See, I disagree. It would require Beason to build every defensive series around him (in our current scheme), where as from the middle he builds the defense around the rest of his players. He can be a more effective leader from the middle and that is the quality that, in my mind, sets him apart and makes him elite.

    • I like that a lot; Ware from Troy and also Khalil Mack who played at University of Buffalo
    • I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛
    • bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
