Beckwith not NFL ready, unfortunately someone will lie to him, he will get drafted late, and miss out on a productive Senior year(like Debo Jones had)

He's been awesome, really just referring to expectations coming into the year. Was hoping for a monster season from Beckwith that hasn't really materialized. Good for Jones for stepping up.

Jones should have been playing a lot more the 2 seasons prior.
Thought Beck would have a breakout year this year, no so much.

He has played very well in pass coverage If KB stays and can make a similar improvement next year he is a top 10 pick. Right now he is 2 rd at best. He can't play 2nd and long or 3rd down right now , whereas Debo has proven he is ready to play the run and pass.

I'm not surprised. If a play was made in the backfield Debo was somewhere near the play. Beckwith has been sheepish this year.

DEEEBO!!!!


For all the Steele bashers, does he get any credit for Debo's huge jump in play this year??


I'm sure this huge accomplisment will get very little attention today.

If Beckwith goes out this year I am afraid he will have a Trev Faulk kind of awakening. There is not 1 junior on our team that needs to declare this year.

Gotta give this one more bump now that the board has slowed down a bit.

Dude had a monster year. We needed it big time after Kwon left a big hole to fill.

And he was never better than on senior night against A&M. Huge game from a big time player that waited his turn and made the most of his opportunity.

Can't wait to see where he'll be playing on Sundays. Congrats Debo and thanks for your time in purple and gold

Can we get a sticky here admin??
