Jet Nut Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 21 hours ago, Warfish said: Wilson has an endless stream of defenders no matter how poorly he played, and any jokes about him generate a host of offended E-White Knights who decry any criticism of any aspect of him, serious or humorous. Becton was written off by most of this board as a fat lazy slob after one injury that was not his fault went longer than hoped, and now regularly gets mocked as a fat lazy worthless slob we're better off without. As of today, Becton is better O-lineman than Zach is a QB. We'll see what their respective futures hold, but the homerism for one and the aggressive hatred of the other is, IMO, very clear in the majority. Wilson by all accounts is a hard working kid who wants to become elite and is willing to put the work in. You cant see the difference? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UntouchableCrew Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 2 hours ago, Warfish said: That's interesting, actually. I think it's just as strong for Wilson as it was for Darnold at this stage. Curious. I feel like Jets fans were by and large very optimistic about Darnold after his strong finish to his rookie year. That Packers game, etc. There are certainly lots of Jets fans who are bullish on Wilson but that's to be expected of any young QB, fans will support them out of hope and homerism... But he's been subject to a LOT of criticism. I'd be willing to bet, for instance that if you went to boards for the Jaguars or Bears you'd see far fewer fans killing Lawrence or Fields who had similarly disappointing rookie campaigns. I'd actually argue getting burned by Darnold has led to fans being much quicker to (rightfully) express major concerns about Wilson. I think you're right that there are fewer "white knights" defending Becton but I think that's largely related to concerns about effort... Both Wilson and Becton have been heavily criticized. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadaSteve Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 1 hour ago, Mogglez said: I do like Becton though! I want to make that clear. I spent an entire season eating crow because I wasn’t sure of the pick at the time. I thought he was an absolute BEAST his rookie year. My concerns with him now are, honestly, I think he went into last year reading too many of his own press clippings. I want the kid to reignite that fire he had his rookie season. I’m concerned that he might have lost that a little. As for the Plantar Fasciitis, both Saleh and Becton himself kind of alluded to it being due to his weight during mini camp. There probably is something to do with weight. The heavier you are, the more weight on the feet, more weight on the feet, etc.... Our first pick, I think, will really be a deciding factor on what the Jets think of Becton. If we take Ekwonu, Cross, or Neal (Draftek's current mock has Neal dropping to us at 4), then we'll know. I just don't think we will have to wait that long. If Becton isn't traded, and Fant and/or Moses is signed long-term, the Jets are not dropping another high pick on the OL. If a bunch of the above doesn't happen, well..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The injury had nothing to do with him being out of shape, but it's been insinuated that his slow recovery was due to weight gain and poor work habits. It was a four week injury that turned into seventeen plus. I've defended the Ticket all season, but once the coach came out and questioned his effort about the rehab, it's hard to continue. Hopefully he takes the criticism to heart and comes back as the monster we all think he can be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triple H lived in a hotel in Alabama near his physical therapy clinic. He did PT full time (9 hours days) 5 days a week, with two half days on weekends. He also managed to get an hour of his own personal workout time if he had a good day of rehab. Something tells me that if HHH was an NFL player, the rehab would have been exactly the same. This injury happened in 2001, but I doubt that HHH would be focusing on his Twitch streaming career. I find nothing silly about this.

Becton can move to RT. and then when Fant is gone he can move back to LT. I’m still unsure of fant. Who did he lock down last year? No one great that I can remember. Becton played great against Joey Bosa and Myles Garrett two of the upper tier edge players. Hopefully it’s a good competition and the better guy wins. People seem to forget that Becton was actually really good as a rookie. Which honestly I was surprised by because of how raw coming out he was. I couldn’t find the Joey Bosa all 22, but becton locked him down with 2 tackles and 0 sacks. He gave up 1 sack to Garrett, but he’s one of the best edges in the league. This is him as a rookie.

I think you have misunderstood my issue with a fraction of your posts. I LOVE 90% of your takes. I like that you have legit inside info. It enhances the board. It’s good stuff. But when you hint at things that MAY be inside info that may be derogatory about a current Jet and you say you can’t REALLY say why, it’s sounds like the anonymous player criticizing a teammate. If you know something, either say it or if you don’t feel comfortable saying it, don’t hint you know something that nobody else knows. We have NO idea what’s going on with Bechton. As I’ve said before, if he shows up a big fat slob out of shape then kill him all you want. I’ll be leading the pack. But until we have concrete evidence—evidence that you know and won’t disclose—then let’s stop the conjecture and wait till OTAs start. One other thing. I have no doubt you have plantar faciitis.

You know there’s a difference between blowing past a guy and not letting him get to the pocket (where the qb usually is) right? He was going around which takes more time because becton wouldn’t let him bull rush which he tries to do multiple times and failed. Qbs also usually don’t sit 8 yards deep in the pocket like darnold does. This is why they are always told to step up in the pocket. The way garret was rushing minus like 2 bad blocks by becton they were pretty good for a rookie. If you count in your head his blocks are all 3+ second minus 1 play. The average time for a qb to get rid of the ball is between 2-3 seconds. All the rushing blocks were pretty well done too All I’m saying is that so many people want to get rid of him and forget that he played pretty damn well for a rookie and has all the tools to be a great LT. I like fant too, but I can’t think of any edges he blocked on Garrett/Bosa level to compare it to. According to pff so take it as you will, becton as a rookie and fant had the same pass blocking grade 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
