What other Eagles in 13 years of Stout U did this?I agree with you - the only upside I see is a) you get really good at the silent count in all conditions b) you build the tendency to sucker punch the defense at the opportune time.

So, Im not too concerned about when he will be back. Would seem to be a short term problem. At this point, may as well keep him out till after the bye.He hasn't even been AT practice, so he surely is going to be out this week
15 hours ago15 hr 29 minutes ago, just relax said:Becton last year was better than Steen is this year, significantly so. Our line last year was objectively better than this year's line, at any point.Steen has been better than Becton this year is my point. The line has underachieved because Dickerson, Jurgens and Mailata have all dropped off significantly, and we keep putting Toth out there for some reason.

I like steen more than most but i also don’t think he’s getting an extension after his contract is up next yearI think there's about zero chance they extend Steen, as they can't/won't want another high priced OL. Maybe if he really improves and it coincides with Lane retiring...but the dead money from Lane when he retires will hit a couple years of the cap. Gotta think they will want someone on a rookie deal or a cheap deal. Becton's contract with LA is pretty much a one year deal -- $5mm signing bonus, $10mm cash this year. They can cut him after the year and save $7.5mm on the 2026 cap ($2.5mm dead money from the signing bonus because no void years, avoid $10mm in unguaranteed salary and roster bonuses). If he keep playing this poorly, I bet we can get him for a similar deal as 2024 -- 1 year, ~$3mm. Maybe $4mm.

I’m pretty sure Becton unless he turns this around is getting released. I think he’d want to return here because he had his best year of his career here and I think there’d be mutual interest. Curious if some other team will offer him a starting spot whereas here he’d be competing with steen. Unless eagles try to trade steen going into his last year. Although less likely as he’s cheap and if he leaves as a FA and signs a decent contract they could get a solid comp pick

But I felt Kendall was likely ready to play at a competent level as a rookie when he got drafted. Imo I thought he fell to where he did in the draft based off of he strictly a center and he had a lower ceiling than you would like.
14 hours ago14 hr Steen is not better than Becton this year. And Ojomo is not better than Milt Williams. That's pretty obvious at this point. Though both have played okay as replacements. Those are 2 big losses for both sides of the ball. In addition, there's a Domino Effect as well with those losses on both lines regarding depth. Bad depth behind Steen & Ojomo.

But my question is more if somebody offered Becton the same amount of money, but the promise is gonna start, would he choose the Eagles over that team? I kind of think he would choose the place where he could still go out and start. That said I’m not sure there’s gonna be a team that gives him that promise.
