Ah, the old "define a player by one number, when that number isn't the player's strength" trick.
And what does "JAG" mean in this context? Beasley is a role player. He's not going to be anybody's #1 or #2 receiver. But in the right role, he's been extremely effective in his career.
It shows that A) he’s durable but B)he’s not the elite receiver he thinks he is
He thinks he's elite? He's reportedly looking for $20M guaranteed. Beckham has $65 guaranteed, Evans $55, Hopkins $49...that's the elite.
Who gets $20M guaranteed? Quincy Enunwa, Paul Richardson, Kenny Stills, DeSean Jackson (at age 32, over only 3 years), Tyler Lockett (signed before he broke out this season, and also for 3 years). It seems to me that Beasley has a pretty good sense of his value. A 4 year contract with $20M guaranteed may be a bit high, but you expect his opening position to be low?
