Beason traded?

[Marguide]

I don't get people that think Beason has value beyond a late round pick.

 

He's a partial season rental, the guy hasn't played in a loooong time, and he is suffering from what is likely to be chronic knee pain. Is that the kind of player other teams want? Perhaps, but not for anything more than a late round pick.

Ohh for Christ's sake. Look at what you're typing. Here's a player, and I don't give a poo if he's a fuging active player who's already enshrined in the Hall of fuging Fame, who's not starting and who's contract voids after this year. He's not going to play this year, baring injury, and next year....well he's not here at all. So your choices are:

 

A) Keep player here for no fuging reason besides depth and some mythological "Leadership from the pine" quality

B)Get anything of value for him with a limited window of opportunity from a desperate team that needs LB help...

 

 

what do you choose?

 

Well if you're an idiot, you choose A

 

Good points. Plus, you open up a roster spot.

Beason is now expected to take physical w giants in AM and if he passes trade will be complete

[KillerKat]

What LB do we got in the PS to call up?

[Mr Mojo Risin]

When was the last time we drafted some one worth mentioning in the late rounds.

Regardless the Giants are getting a great player...all I can think right now is when Luke stared at. Beason and pointed at him like That was for you type play...tells u a lot about Beason, will miss him

[Sam Mills Fan]

2013 Captain Munnerlyn >>> 2013 Jon Beason

 

If you don't agree with that, you're objectively wrong.

Beason for a 7th round pick isn't exactly a win...

A 7th round pick might not even translate to a roster player.

He hasn't even really played in two years. What pick would you expect?

We don't know what round we are getting yet.

But the more important thing is we are also doing what is best for Beast. Gives him a chance to rejuvenate his career at the position he is best at.

Late picks. No player.

Being reported on ny side.

[Floppin]

Good points. Plus, you open up a roster spot. 

 

and about 10 million in cap space that we can use RIGHT NOW, to sign someone else, or extend someone on the roster..................

 

 

This is a smart move and anyone who says otherwise is fuging stupid.

This is a Sad Day... Thomas Davis had it right hours ago

 

Or, you know, he could have been referring to that little incident in Washington.

People seriously complaining about this trade can go set up a play date with hurney at his local crackhouse.

[Jesse]

Is this not the same forum that vilified Beason when he tore his achilles in 2011 and messed up his knee in 2012? Is this not the group of people that wanted Hurney's head after his 2011 contract extension? Are these the Panther fans who were pissed we picked up Keuchly, another middle linebacker?

 

Jon Beason is a hell of a leader and a great middle linebacker. Beason has had 2 season-ending-injuries the last 2 seasons and is in his 7th season. Blackburn has won the WLB position that Jon coveted and apparently won over the coaching staff as well. Blackburn won't garner the same contract number as Beason, and has no injury issues like Beason has the past two years.

 

We can have another player join or a draft pick--something that we Panther fans are constantly bitching about giving up. His contract is also ridiculous considering the amount of playing time. I wish nothing but the best for Jon--a starting linebacker, on a winning team, a Superbowl--but it is not in our best interest to keep him if he is worth more to another team.
