Surprised he is still getting NFL paycheck. brings back back memories of the Gettleman Norman clusterf# and that bad bad draft.

And Julio Jones just doing whatever he wanted to do against that rag tag secondary of rookies and cast-offs. I swear he could've gone for 500+ yards that day if they really wanted to be dicks about it.

Jets get confirmation that Becton is gone for the year...

 

Before the Jets settled in on a CB and took Sauce Garner, most mock drafts had Ickey penciled in for the Jets.  Sucks for them and great for us that they decided to stick with Beckton.

Becton is a talented guy but everyone knew the weight would cause problems if he didn't get in better shape. He hasn't and it is.

Didn't get in better shape? Dude was 299 lbs of lean muscle mass at Louisville. Literally 17% BF at 360 lbs. So it's not because he's not in shape, it's just because he's a massive human being.

He was 300 pounds as a HS recruit.

    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes I to account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as a treading water year. I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. 
    • What happened to King? Was he a no show?
    • think these smaller Qb's are going to have a much harder time convincing an NFL team to draft them. not saying a smaller Qb under 6 feet tall will not make an NFL roster .it will most likely be a UDFA contract more or less prove it deal.NFL teams have been burnt time & time again investing in these small NFL Qbs & i think  teams are now finally starting to realize that investing in these smaller Qb's under 6 feet tall is simply a bad idea  ...just saying
