       Becton getting a lot of push for that starting RG spot
       By: PhillyPhilly Date: June 8, 2024, 10:08 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       4 weeks ago I thought Steen had the job in the bag.
       But the love affair between Becton and Stoutland is stronger
       than even I imagined it would be.
       And Lane is now talking as if he's gonna be playing for several
       more seasons, meaning that starting RT isn't a realistic goal
       for Becton.
       Steen is under contract for 3 more years.  Starting Becton now
       would still give us time to figure out a long term role for
       Steen.

       Anyone who killed it at RT and LT in the SEC is a baller in my
       book.
       But yeah, Becton definitely wins every prison yard fight.

       For one thing he's officially taking snaps at guard.
       Stoutland made a special request to Howie to get Becton and
       can't stop lavishing praise on him.

       but none at right guard. that's the point. he filled in for
       dickerson, but didn't take any of steen's reps

       Yeah, he can back up at either guard or tackle.

       The odds of a starter getting a season ending injury is somewhat
       high, but I don't think Stoutland is going to risk losing Becton
       on the hopes that a starting spot opens up for him via injury
       next season.
       I like Steen a lot, but I can see why Stoutland would prefer
       Becton, short term and long.  Becton is a physical freak, a
       pancake machine with 36 inch arms and 11 inch hands.  Steen is
       physically impressive, but still more of a skill based lineman.
