OT beckton. Flagged for drug test at combine

He’s going to be a major bust. Not because he smoked weed, but because of his effort. His strength & conditioning coach tried to toot his horn, but explained that he was like 30 lbs. overweight and out of shape when the new staff came into town. Compile this with the fact that he doesn’t know not to smoke weed a month out for the combine? The kid’s just not mature enough to make it big time.

This will hurt him some, but I still believe he goes somewhere in the top 20....

Similar happened to L. Tunsil a few years back, he was supposed to go top 5 and slid to 13

Tunsil had a video on the internet of him getting high doing bong rips trough a gas mask.

This is good news for teams like us... not sure how far he would fall if at all. I love Becton as a player.. hes an athletic monster with size. All these guys dinging him and calling him trash must not need an offensive tackle.. because this is how bargains are found. Teams afraid  he might never let the drugs go will be scared off and he falls kind of like how gregory fell to the second round for the cowboys.

Hes been a contributor to them ever since. If u got brass balls like tepper and looking to add talent..sign me up.. i would even trade up into the later half of the first.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
