Detroit runs an inside ZBS in which Tomlinson sucked, and power-scheme guys like him should be kind of passable.

Hate to be the negative one, but in Shanahan's outside zone scheme everything Tomlinson is decent at isn't asked of him, and everything he's supposed to be awful at is asked of him.

Beadles isn't better than a decent backup, but he's a much, much better scheme fit in the run game.

So, I don't like this trade that much, and am pretty confused by it.

I'm hoping I'm really missing something.

He is speculating.

Put him at his best position which is RG. Same thing as we did with Tank. We tried to make him a beefy 3-4 DE and it didn't work. Our new regime told him to cut weight and do what he does, get after the QB.

Obviously gonna make the team, but who does he replace? I hope not the Michigan guy.

Beadles, probably

You mean like what you (and a few others I shall not name) do whenever someone says something remotely positive about this team?


Na. More like when people realistically try to predict us going 10-6 and then say we're not true fans because we don't believe it. lol.

Not happening.

He was a RG at Duke and was much better as a RG for Detroit.
Played LG in Detwa

Been saying this for a while. But really, this may be to get Beadles outta there. Old and no future here. Decent backup or spot starter for now.

Another Baalke mistake we're still paying for smh

Beadles is solid and versatile...just shouldn't be a starter.

IIRC he was the only [notable] FA we signed in 2015. One of the worst FA periods for this franchise, really.

This is true but I think his lack of athletesism can be masked as a RG. Call power runs to to the right behind Brown and Tomlinson and stretch plays to the left behind mobile linemen Staley and Beadles.

Beadles is making $4M a year. Is it possible to find a trade partner for him or nah?

Nope. Started 10 games at RG last year and was much better
