Heading into the 2020 NFL Draft, we knew that the NY Jets needed to start to build a strong frontline to protect Sam Darnold as well as Le’Veon Bell. With the 11th pick, this is exactly what they did by drafting offensive tackle Mehki Becton.
At 6-foot-7, 364 pounds, Becton is a straight-up brick wall on the line. And with a sub-5.10 40-yard dash, Becton is a big man that can move.
Becton was absolutely the right pick at No. 11 overall as he can potentially become a guy who is a Jet for a lifetime.
