Matt39 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Speaking to the New York Daily News, a Jets source says second-round rookie Christian Hackenberg will "never make it." "Never," the source emphasized. Hackenberg was a topic of discussion on Thursday after owner Woody Johnson called him a "prospect." Reporter Manish Mehta says he recently asked an anonymous Jets starter if Hackenberg was worth a second-round pick and received a curt "no" in reply. The fact that Hackenberg couldn't get on the field in a lost year where Ryan Fitzpatrick, Geno Smith and Bryce Petty were all either injured or ineffective — usually at the same time — says all there is to know about Hack's NFL future.

flgreen Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 This is going to turn out to be Gailey or the fired QB coach. Not big on Hack, but these guys need to shut their mouths, doesn't sound good for the kid, but geez don't make things harder for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freemanm Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 1) Why isn't Macc being held accountable AT ALL for using a second round pick on him, especially when so many better players were drafted after him? And 2) Okay, he hasn't shown a lot of development in practice but there still hasn't been a rational explanation given for why you wouldn't give Hack ANY game time snaps during a lost year, especially when you used a second round pick on him. Is Woody too stupid to even realize this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets OC: “The sky’s the limit” for Christian Hackenberg Posted by Darin Gantt on December 2, 2016, 8:25 AM EST Getty Images As the Jets have floundered about at quarterback this season, the guy they spent a second-round pick on hasn’t been a factor at all. But Jets offensive coordinator Chan Gailey objected to classifying rookie quarterback Christian Hackenberg as a “mystery,” and offered what amounts to the most vigorous defense to date of a guy who has become an afterthought behind Ryan Fitzpatrick and Bryce Petty. “I don’t like that word,” Gailey said, via Daniel Popper of the New York Daily News. “I think he’s a developmental player at this point. There’s a lot of talent there. The sky’s the limit.” The Jets are as curious about his potential as anyone, but since he’s third on the depth chart, he gets so few reps in practice that they can’t accurately measure his progress. “He gets scout team reps and that’s what he gets,” Gailey said. “He gets the pre-practice individual throws. He’s learning every day about when to throw the ball, how to throw the ball. Up here it’s different than it is in college. He’s learning a great deal. “To me, he’s gotten better every week. He understands the game better. He understands the defenses better. He understands protections better. That’s all a part of the growth process.” And the Jets seem content to wait to see the growth at another time, rather than rolling him out in a lost season.

Mogglez Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I'm struggling to see how an another "anonymous source" thread was necessary after the other "anonymous source" thread. We have no idea what he's going to look like after an offseason and work with new coaching. If he still burns out, then address the issue with a first round QB next year. Until then, all this "anonymous source" stuff is pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k-met57 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 i will say one more thing....if they go into next year with the same develop him attitude all bets are off. He has to play next year in some capacity, maybe backup with major preseason reps, maybe starter....whatever...next year is the year for him to show something.

I think because things change. When the "redshirt" statement was made, I think the expectation is that Fitz would perform at least solidly, and we'd be in wildcard contention. Had he and had we, the Hack narrative would be quite different, I believe. While plenty, myself included, would still not have high hopes for the kid, you wouldn't be in a situation where the starter plays poorly, the backup gets hurt immediately, the starter continues to play poorly, the season ends in early November, the 3rd string plays poorly and then gets hurt, and you still don't play Hackenberg. Yes, everyone knows he needs time, and no one was expecting a savior this year, but when the QB situation is so incredibly bad around him, and you still don't give him garbage time minutes, where there's no pressure to succeed. That is going to raise some questions, none of which paint Hackenberg in a positive light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hack needs to be in the mix for at least the back up job, or this is an epic failure of a pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bd71 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Macc needs to be held accountable if Hack ends up being a dud. Another wasted second round pick. Hack in 2016, Devin Smith in 2015. The Jets need to find impact players in the 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southtown24th Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I still can't figure the **** out why we drafted this ******* kid...it actually makes me ******* angry that we are holding off (potentially) on drafting another QB this year because of this ****.
