What would you trade for Becton?

[NorthwestDallas40]

Former 11th overall pick. 6’7” 374 lbs. Could he be our LG? He hasn’t done much but draft pedigree is appealing.

 

[Adiba1977]

How good is he? Better than anyone you’d get first round? What’s his contract?

right more details wasnt this guy a recently drafted? why they getting rid of his so quickly with young QB who needs to be protected?

 

[fivetwos]

My answer is....definitely, but depends on price.

Can't trade 24 for him, nor future firsts.

I doubt pick 58 gets it done, but I do that in a second...provided he can play guard for now.

Interesting question.. was Wirfs really the best of that group or did he just fall into the best situation?

Yeah he's been hurt a ton.

Comes down to if teams think that's a chronic thing or coincidence. Very high end talent.

If they can get a lower first as a return I can see why they may want to cut losses, as they are staring at some pretty good OTs given their draft position.

He's fat and lazy.

A toaster strudel and 2 bacon strips.

But not a pillsbury toaster struedel unless its cherry and we keep the icing packet.

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

Years matter here. We can trade for a guy with three years left, or get a rookie for four or five years. So I'd offer a 4th, because of his injuries.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

There are reasons why the Jets are wanting move on from a guy they recently viewed as cornerstone piece of their franchise a few years ago.

wouldn't pay a first. why are they shopping him?

 

[RS12]

Dont we already have a few guys that play the "cant stay healthy" position? I ll give a 5th for him.

 

[Rayman70]

Hes a bum. Jets will be lucky 2 get a 5th for him. If we traded a 5th, given we have 4 this year, I might be fine with that idea. Gives us a warm body at least.

 

[LittleD]

I'd give next year's 6th and a bag of potato chips. He must sign a new extension for no more that 2mil per season while spending the off season at the fat farm.

I'll send a 5th, no more.

^this^ essentially my feeling as well. It would be nuts to trade more than a 5th for this guy.

 

[Rayman70]

He's a swing tackle at this juncture if we traded for him. That might be his best fit. THAT I might like.

 

[Rayman70]

Here's what we do know. Ya don't want this dude starting more than a couple games. He's not the long term solution. BUT I see a role for him as the swing where he is an upgrade over the garbage we have tried.

A dislocated knee cap kept him out for an entire season. He let his weight get over 400lbs. His on-field play has been good. I liked him when he was drafted. The guy can totally destroy defenders and with his size he don’t get pushed around.
