If he can stay healthy, let him have it. When it's all said and done, I think Mike Maslowski will give him a run for his money. Call me crazy...

He does need to stay healthy but last year he recieved a high ankle sprain about two weeks before the season started and that's what kept him out of the games he missed. The year before he did have hammy problems all through camp and into the season.

And that killed us last season because the coaching staff counted on Maz to come back, and he didn't. With Mitchell getting hurt, Beisel was forced to play MLB.

To be honest, Beisel looked better at MLB in TC than Mitchell did.

I don't think Beisel played MLB in TC he was working at LLB up until Mitchell was injured in the last preseason game. That's what I remember anyways. Beisel had two weeks from the last preseason game to the opener to make the change. He did a pretty good job all things considered.

Beisel played MLB during the KC Vs Vikes scrimmage in TC last season. I watched him with my own two eyes. I even talked to him about it at the Mall of America...

I was'nt there and I don't doubt you one bit but I'll still submit that he was working at LLB for the most part. I would have like to kept him but such is the NFL.

He did spend most of Mini/Training Camp at LOLB. You are absolutely correct.

Agreed.
