I don't think anything will compete with the oats well enough to bother? Even annual grasses typically grow slow and would be your good 2nd cutting, but if you are plowing under after the oats and putting beans in, might just as well go with the oats only?
Peas are the only thing that would work well as far as getting growing fast, BUT they don't dry down well at all and will make baling a struggle. For silage, would be something to look into tho.

The dairy neighbors love planting oats, harvesting it for silage or grain & straw, and then planting the alfalfa into the stubble. They say works better than spring planted alfalfa. But they do _not_ harvest it the year it's planted, that about kills it, needs to be left until next spring.
