Beason's trade value

Just curious with the emergence of Luke if Beason would worth it for you guys to trade or move him to the outside. I would think getting some picks out him instead of sticking him to SLB would be the preferred route. With his past 2 years of injuries and the cap hit of 5.7M and only getting higher for an OLB. Especially a SLB or do you move Anderson to SLB and Beason to WLB. Not that the Panthers would move Beason to the Bucs, not for a decent price anyways, but thought I would see what you guys thought the future for Beason was in Carolina as he's one of my favorite non-buc players.

I think he'd fall somewhere around the range we got for Kris Jenkins. My best guess would be a 3rd and a 5th.

He needs to take a pay cut like Thomas Davis did or we need to trade him.

4 Year Rookie Contracts changes the landscape. Teams will be less willing to part with their draft picks. Beason is 28 and rebounding from injury. Having landed a $ 50 million contract prior to FA, what team would be willing to sacrifice a 3rd Round Pick & add an injury question mark overpaid LB?

I think most would prefer to sign a guy via Free Agency. I'd argue Beason for possibly a 4th.

I say a 5th at the most.

Teams dont give up much for MLBs.

Teams dont give up much for MLBs coming off major surgery.

Teams dont give up much for MLBs coming off major surgery that aren't really needed by their current team.

Teams dont give up much for MLBs coming off major surgery that aren't really needed by their current team and have a great big contract.

If a team wants him, they'll wait till we release him. I hope we manage to renegotiate and keep him in the fold.

We better re-structure and keep him. I still believe he can play at a high level. He needed another year to fully recover from the achilles injury.

Mark my words, he will be an Impact player this coming season. If not for the Panthers, for someone else.

KEEP THE MAN.

Panthers need to renegotiate with Beason. He has been banking huge bucks sitting on the bench with injuries. We can't get anything in trade for him and he was a top 5 LB before he went down (maybe top 2). Don't want to move Kuechly out of the middle, so he would have to play Will.

Would also be interesting to play a little 3-4 with Beason and Kuechly in the middle flanked by Anderson and Davis (gets our best guys in the field).
