Farewell to Jon Beason

We should also remember how Jon handled Luke coming in here and taking his spot.  He could not have handled that situation with more class. 

 

I look forward to the day Beason has his number retired here.

 

Not a chance that Beason's number gets retired.  He did not do enough to come close to warranting that honor.

Meh, I felt worse after Pep left.

 

Peppers didn't want to be here for the long haul. He made that clear.

 

For me, it's always tougher to see guys leave who really love their team and their city and want to play there forever. I wish Beason could retire a Panther, but this is the nature of the business. Simply put, Beason signed a big contract, got banged up and is losing his role on this team.

I talked to Beason after he was first moved to OLB a few years ago.  He was positive and upbeat.  Then he sang Luke's praises and accepted a lesser role. 

 

He was with Davis throughout his rehab.

 

Beason will be better in the middle, but I have to wonder how his body has held up through several years of the pounding a MLB gets. 

 

I hope he fires that Defense up in NY and takes it to the Saints, Falcons, and Bucs.  He will bring them knowledge and leadership.

I'm glad for him to get a shot, something that wasn't going to happen here.

 

 

Great player his first few years.

 

No trouble off the field.

 

Class act when transitioning Luke into his spot.

 

Took a paycut so something like this could happen.

 

Long term he helped the team.

 

This is exactly what I would have hoped to do in Beasons and DG's spot.

 

Good luck Jon.

    • I always get lectured every year when we inevitably win some meaningless late season games to tank our draft position that we're building culture and you always have to try to win no matter what. This is why that's bullshit. Once you're out of contention it's to your competitive advantage to LOSE. 
    • You’re tripping I hear what you’re saying but you’re not thinking of the benefits that trade gives us. We can then move around in the second round or late in the first to grab a specific player we covet like M Starks late in the 1st. Let me clarify if we’re at 21 we grab W Nolen or K Grant then trade up late in the 1 or early in the second giving up next years second for M Starks or T Amos there so much that can happen with that additional ammo.  Allowing us still so much leverage in next years draft as well with two first rounders we’d be dam crazy not to take a trade like that it’s not the big haul or heavy amount of picks we’re hoping for but it’s gets us multiple players especially ones we’ve seemed to taken a liking to like Nolen etc along with the safety from SC. or even a Luther B or James P early in the second. This nice influx in talent would help way more than a player like Jalon W. because of his high bust rate or probability  to bust….you know what I mean.  We need players we all know that those extra picks allow us to give up something this year to add key pieces from the 29-40 range that we may really like and have a need for (T Amos) and it not hurt as much because we’re stacked in round one of 26. Which could also be a pick one trade one scenario next year giving us more ammo to manipulate the draft to a winning situation for us long term. Al that to say we desperately need to be actively seeking a trade because we could add real talent in multiple spots this year and next with that current trade your opposing.
    • According to their list, the top guy hasn't put out a mock yet and the 2nd guy has us trading to 4 for Carter.
