Beckwith is better, but he's going to struggle to be an avg SEC middle linebacker. He's missed on lots of tackles as well.

Minter 2011 started 11/14 games, played in all
61 TKL 21 solo
3.5 TFL
1.0 Sck
1 pass def
1 FF
1 TD

Minter 2012 started every game
130 tackles 55 solo
15.0 TFL
4.0 Sck
5 pass def
1 FF
1 INT

Beckwith has better skill than Minter, and will be a force next year. Check out a comparison from their first 7 games of 2011 and 2014

Minter 2011 4/7 games started
27 TKL 5 solo
1.5 TFL
1 FF

Beckwith 2014 1/7 games started
32 TKL 14 solo
2.0 TFL
1.0 Sck
2 pass def
1 INT
1 TD

Beckwith Wasnt perfect, but was a far better MLB than welter. He filled the hole, more physical, more aggressive. Did miss a few tackles, but who doesn't.

But he was also in on some critical tackles as well. Much more involved in the middle and only a sophomore. He will be fine.
