@BigTicket73 getting ready for the Big Apple.
Mekhi Becton is headed for the bright lights of New York, as a Jet. The 6-foot-7, 364 pound offensive tackle was taken 11th in the first round in the National Football League draft. That guarantees him a huge pay day.
The announcement came an hour and a half into the virtual draft held in the basement of NFL Commissioner Roger Goodall’s home.
Becton recruited by former coach Bobby Petrino, flourished under head coach Scott Satterfield at left tackle winning the Jacobs Blocking trophy as the Atlantic Coast Conference’s most outstanding blocker.
