Mekhi Becton done as a Jet?

Anyone who thinks Becton isn't putting a Jets jersey again is an idiot. There's some concerns, but that is a dumb statement. 

Nah, this is from back in early January. Pretty clear that Saleh is the one wants him gone. GM probably wants to try to salvage his draft pick.

Except Saleh doesn't 'want him gone'. The scuttlebutt around the team right now is that Douglas is the one who wants to draft an OT and Saleh doesn't.. jets fans may want him gone, but that's the only people talking about it in any real sense.

Even more hilarious knowing they are losing their LT, and are STILL going all in on trading multiple picks, including #10 overall, for a WR.

 

 

*Jets trade their picks for Deebo*

 

Deebo: I don’t want to be used in the way that makes me worth these picks 

 

Jets:

After a very good rookie season in 2020, Becton missed almost all of the 2021 campaign because of a dislocated kneecap suffered in the season opener. He never got back on the field after Sept. 12 and his weight reportedly reached 400 pounds.

Wow would make a good NT .  Jets can get a excellent WR with there 4th or 10th pick in this draft.

so many of these linemen have insane talent but are just like giant fat lazy drunk bears.  there should be some kind of cookie avoiding wonderlick to test to see if these guy will balloon up.

 

holti ngata, vince wilfork, or this guy or a mike williams.  gotta roll the dice, would be nice to know if you are drafting a thicc champion or a sloppy guts grump on his way to a bust off career and an early heart attack.

What’s the issue with Becton?  I know he had kind of an up and down rookie season and that he was injured last season.

 

Apparently the New Jersey team can’t make a jersey big enough to fit him.

Straight from the handbook of how NOT to build a franchise. I love it! 

 

I also remember being on the wrong side of the equation. That was less enjoyable.
