GangGreen Machine Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 As a Becton optimist, the last 1-2 months have had me worried. Becton should absolutely be worried that Neal or Icky will be drafted at #4 to replace him. Original Thought so take it with a grain of salt: If I were Becton, and I was making the progress I should be this off-season, I would be posting more dynamic workouts on my social media to elevate my job security and keep the media/staff off my back. I would be transparent and let folks know i am at or near ideal playing weight and ready to roll come OTA’s. If I were Becton, and I wasn’t making great progress, I would post triceps push downs and farmers carries on social media. I’d also not share my weight loss progress and keep workout tape at a minimum to maintain some level of secrecy to help my job security. Am I missing something or are the crickets on rehab from Becton and the team just 2 weeks before the draft super concerning? 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I state that? "Folks" is being overly general, yes. By that I mean id like to not hear from his nutritionist about being "under 400". Id like to hear form his Head Coach that he is going to be ready by spring training. Smoke and mirrors from the Jets with the draft coming up maybe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGHT STALKER Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I'm still sticking to my picks at 4 and 10 (however, I reserve the right to change my opinion if we trade for a WR prior to or on draft day) for an edge guy at 4 and a WR at 10...if they pick a OT in the first round I would be surprised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammybighead Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 This isn’t a game about what to post or how to garner public opinion. It’s very simple. Come to camp under 350 or you’ll be gone next year. Jets will suffer short term with him busting but they’ll find another tackle. It’s not the end of the earth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GangGreen Machine Posted April 15, 2022 Author Share Posted April 15, 2022 Reminder, original thought. Now that we have gathered ourselves... My hope he is the LT or RT for 6-8 more years. My concern is Id like to see more from the Jets and Becton to cross Tackle off my list in the first round of the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id like to know how he is doing leading up to draft night, since we haven't seen hide nor hair of him since week 1 of 2021. Although an only fans for Big and Tall Studz may be in his future.

And if he is available that's what is going to happen. I then believe the Jets will draft WR with Wilson or Williams unless Thibs is there at. Then trade back into the 1st for an edge whether its Johnson or Mafe, If they draft Thibs at 10 then Olave/Williams/London with a move up back into the 1st. Travis Jones will be the 2nd round pick out of UConn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web72 Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 If we draft IK or Neal I think it’s more a sign to replace Fant, an average T who is a FA after next season not to cut Becton 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetspenguin Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 He needs to start posting pics of huge plates of fried chicken, mashed potato with gravy, huge cups of soda, salty snacks, snicker bars and a napkin that says fkkk lettuce.Just to be sarcastic......and come to camp in better shape than the combine.Sent from the NY Jets /Zack Wilson Suicide Watch desk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PepPep Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 Didn't JD say something to the extent of- we are going into the draft assuming Becton will be a starting tackle for us in 2022? I mean, isn't that as transparent as JD can possibly get to secure Becton's place on the roster? I mean, the way you're presenting the argument, shouldn't Davis, Lawson, even Fant (who got hurt and is in a contract year) ALL be worried for their roster spot then- to potentially be replaced by a high draft pick- an Edge, WR, O-lineman? Why aren't the coaches talking about them? Do we need workout videos from them to make sure they are recovering well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DjHoldyHold Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 If Thibs (or some how Hutchinson) are not available at 4 I would love to take a tackle. It gives us Beckton insurance, makes him tradeable if we prefer the other tackle, and gives us Fant insurance 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
