FTL Jet Fan Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 27 minutes ago, T0mShane said: The Hack v Lynch story is going to be fun to watch, but it also has great and vast potential to cause a mass suicide on the East Coast. When we passed on Lynch, I was ok with it until Elway traded up for him. Then I got sick when we drafted Hack knowing that the reason why we passed on Lynch was because Maccagnan wanted Hack instead. The stories coming out of OTAs in Denver are that Lynch is still struggling with the playbook, but has looked good throwing the football, particularly on the move. Meanwhile, the stories with Hackenberg have all been about how he's struggling with the act of throwing the football, so much so that the Jets have stashed him on the far practice field, away from the media. It will be entertaining to say the least and if Lych is halfway decent we will be crucified by the parasite media. I would rather have heard reports of a rookie struggling with the playbook then overthrowing WR's. Which has been an issue for Hack for awhile.It is expected for a rookie to struggle with the playbook in the beginning. I would prefer to hear Hack was struggling with the playbook than struggling to make throws. Hopefully he comes together but I would have been more comfortable with Lynch, hope I'm wrong as it is still early. I just don't know how you pass on Lynch. This is such a fuc*ing typical Jets situation to be in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My anxiety with this approach is in how much this approach may or may not compromise the development of the roster moving forward. They're not even going to start their first round ILB this year, but they'll promise a starting job to Ryan Fitzpatrick? They had a gaggle of young CBs on the roster last year, but they gave $40 mil to Cro, Skrine, and Revis and Gilchrist? Its dangerous living, IMO, and the far majority of the consistently good teams in the league don't have this type of paranoiac fear of running young players out there. My thinking is that most franchises that are thought of as elite rarely fall below .500. If you want to join them, which we all do, then you've gotta start. Mac the seasoned NFL front office guy has gotten us there once and I believe will do so again this year. Mac the scout will build us .500+ teams while maintaining that floor. At least this is my hope/theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd at least have the plausible excuse that they weren't prioritizing the QB position in this draft. But, drafting Hack puts them in the position of directly competing with Elway for the next decade and if they lose that one, it's a huge miss. Now, who knows what Lynch or Hackenberg will be, but the Jets and their fans are going to be looking over their shoulders for a few years unless Hackenberg doesn't suck OR Darron Lee is Luke Keuchly. 1 hour ago, dbatesman said: ding ding ding Everyone wanted us to spend money, so now we're stuck with Tannenbaum 2.0. Good times. Ha. Tannenbaum was awful, and I think Maccagnan has the advantage of not being simply a CPA. Maccagnan deserves credit for not being tied into long-term deals with these older vets, so that's an improvement. The only guys who are getting paid beyond 2016 are Decker and maybe Skrine(?). 1 hour ago, LIJetsFan said: My thinking is that most franchises that are thought of as elite rarely fall below .500.

I look at the way the Panthers and Seahawks built: they were mediocre-to-bad for years, kept adding youth and speed through the draft, and then were gifted with QBs who made them elite. So, patience can pay off. My concern with this regime is that they seem to distrust their young players and the GM's two QB picks are Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg.

As far as who screwed him up or why has become screwed up its unfortunate for him but totally irrelevant as to whether the is a good prospect or not. I guess we will see if he is fixable but you don't often draft a total project Qb in the 2nd. And like it or not the whole Hackenburg vs Lynch thing will go on for some time until one or the other looks like the better guy. That is fine but obsess over OTAs is stupid. This kid showed in his freshman season and also flashes over the next two seasons s that the tools are there and so are the intangibles. Our scouting and coaching staff spent extensive time watching film, working out, conducting interviews etc. After all of that due diligence can we at least give them the benefit of the doubt?

What I saw of Hack was very impressive, hitting guys deep down the field, the way a true Jet quarterback does.also saw him complete a wobbly TD pass, guys with strong arms are gonna miss high a lot, early and especially in practice, I'm just glad the Jets are planning on implementing the long ball, Smith and Peake could make a nice dual deep threat, a quick strike offense.

Sure Patsfantx likes to bust Jet fans balls every chance he gets. In this case I tend to agree it discerning that Hackenberg was this inaccurate throwing in ideal throwing conditions .( Qb's can't be touched ). You're a legit NFL Qb you shouldn't be missing that bad playing catch.( sort like Qb pro day) You can't hit a Wr with space what are you going to do when the window gets a lot smaller.( when they start playing for real) You can poo poo that it is only Ota's , but he has a history ( tape doesn't lie of being inaccurate passer ) You can say they can fix his mechanic to improve his accuracy, but history shows that this is a lot harder to do. See Tim Tebow - how much money and time did he put in to improve his mechanics.( when pressure comes you tend to revert back to what feels comfortable. Give me one example of Qb that was inaccurate passer coming into NFL, that improve in that area in the pro's. A Qb success in Ota's doesn't guarantee success in the regular season, but it does raise red flags when a Qb is very erratic with his accuracy in these ideal throwing situation,( even Geno Smith has looked pretty good in Ota's).

GenoandtheJets Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 I have seen Hackenberg play live twice in person. He isn't that good of a quarterback. I'm not surprised at all and i'm still perplexed that the Jets would even pick him in the 2nd round when he wasn't even worth it. Just because Mccagnan had a friendship with Bill O'Brien when he was employed by the Texans doesn't mean he had to pick Sackenberg. Hopefully he holds the clip board for a long long long time. I would have much rather preferred them to have picked someone else. I believe he'll never play a down at quarterback for the Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hokiejetfan92 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Yeah I am thinking the reaction is a little overblown. Obviously it's not good that he is not lighting it up, but it is not necessarily bad. The problems with Hackenburg in college were that he has bad footwork, poor mechanics on his throws, gets nervous in the pocket etc... and I'm sure we have all read the positives by now. So why would anyone expect him to come into OTA's with great footwook and good mechanics? We all knew that he needs this year at least to improve his footwork, relax while in the pocket and work on not sailing his throws too far. The worst thing ever would be starting Hack early where he has to learn on the fly about reading defenses all while trying to rebuild his throwing motions from the ground up. It would just lead to him reverting to his old ways and is a recipe for disaster. I don't have a good feeling about him, but he should be in the same situation as Petty, which is unfortunate of a 2nd round qb, but he has the magical upside.
