Duane Brown - Eligible to Return After Bye


Recommended Posts

Has Becton really been "great" or just serviceable?  In light of the AVT injury, if Becton can play both LT and RT, and Brown can only play RT, it's best for the team to do that for now.  If Brown gets hurt, or it turns out he's just totally washed, we'll adjust.  But for now:

LT - Brown
LG - Tomlinson
C - McGovern
RG - Tippman
RT - Becton

(Would seem that running right becomes a good idea again with this lineup)

We aren't winning the Super Bowl this year and while I'm not advocating for a tank right now I think a real effort of giving players like Zach Wilson, Becton (at LT), and before the injury AVT (at RT) time to solidify their positions is high priority.

I think we need to know what we have with Becton at LT. Is he going to be the guy or not? Or to a lesser extent is he going to be worth a franchise tag or not?

Move Brown to RT or keep him as a backup at LT. He was terrible before he got hurt anyway.

What are we going to do w/this guy when he comes back? If Becton continues to play better at LT it would be foolish to put Brown back there IMO. He played a little RT in college but that was like 100 years ago and he's never played there in the NFL.

J-E-T-S! 

Brown is going to make an immediate contribution...

Let's put the pipe down for a sec..

Now that's a proper accessory for game days watching this team. (Wakes up in his Lazy-boy at 8PM, says out loud, "...Wait, what was the final score?")

I’m not against having Brown “learn” to play RT and starting there if/when he shows comfort and proficiency at it.

It’s kind of a crazy, maybe impractical, idea, but I’d be tempted to tell Becton that if he commits to the team by signing a reasonable extension now, they’ll commit to him as their future LT by continuing to play him there.

Have to keep Becton at RT and see what he can do this year. Need that data...

Brown goes to RT. Never played there before. Okay that is fine. You will figure it out.

Just for clarification, you mean leave Becton at LT, correct?

Brown should get no concessions, if he can stay healthy he can compete for the RT spot.  Becton is

the LT and shouldn't be flipped for a guy who may get hurt again.  Hopefully Mitchell will take the

RT spot and Brown can be a backup

Brown should be the swing tackle and can spell LT when Becton needs some rest for his knee or goes out a little bit in games from that like in Denver.

Depends on how the RT plays this week.  If mitchell gets abused, Becton will go back to RT and brown will play LT.

If Mad Max plays well, brown will ride the pine for the forseeable future.

So Becton finally looks serviceable at LT and we are going to move him.back to RT. **** Duane brown.
