PositiveJetFan Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 In all seriousness Nabers may be the real deal, but I didn’t think it was even possible to generate this much hype in training camp. Usually it at least took a preseason game or two. Either way typical Jets wining those two meaningless games. We lose out on the greatest player of all time and draft a backup tackle who couldn’t even block Michael Clemons per Hughes. Hope you can sense the sarcasm in my post. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Integrity28 Posted August 7 Popular Post Share Posted August 7 Connor Hughes filmed several scenes as one of the Hobbits in the celebratory scenes in the Shire. After focus group testing, those scenes were cut. Many viewers citing, “That one ginger hobbit didn’t seem like a happy, honest little creature of Middle Earth. He seemed like a bitter, now-nothing more suited to being one of the sniveling orcs.” 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARodJetsFan Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 The Giants were 6-11 last season. They generated a 31.1% pressure rate in 2023, ranking only 28th. Their pass rush won just 36.3% of its reps, ranking 30th. Their run-defense didn't fare much better, earning a 29th-ranked 56.2 grade. They were 19th in NFL in pass defense allowing 229.3 yds per game and were 27th in the NFL in total defense, allowing 361.7 yds a game. They were 26th in scoring defense & 25th in red zone defense. Point being, that Nabers is not practicing against an elite defensesive unit, the Giants defense was a pile of hot, steaming garbage last year. Are they better this year - maybe ( I don't know that they could be any worse) but that remains to be seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe W. Namath Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 We know Nabers is good. But there are some red flags there. The Giants themselves have seen this with Beckum. Ill wait 3 or 4 years before I declare this a great pick by them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerous Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 yeah, okay. lsu has certainly been turning out some really good receivers. this guy nabers is possibly one of the best. but the other thing they have in common is they all turn into prima donas in short order. maybe he'll break this mold and just play good football.

Trotter Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 40 minutes ago, Gastineau Lives said: Clowney was a 14th round draft pick Sure. Point is they are claiming him for oroy, top whatever and it is simply preseason - not even appeared in a preseason game yet. He could be everything hughes thinks he is - but based on 2 weeks of practice against guys most likeley not going to be in the league? There used to be a guy who now goes by the chosen one - made some of the most unreal catches I have seen in real games with defenders draped all over him. Then throw a ball in the flat to him with a guy a yard off in defense and he had hands of cement. It is all for clicks and hype but let's see what he and all the other rookies are after some real action. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabers arrived into the league with a strong pedigree + athletic profile (below). That doesn't speak to him being some flash-in-the-pan. He could easily end up some tremendous bust, but a guy like him dominating in camp is more news than noise - he's checking a lot of boxes right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me if you agree with the following; Right now Nabors is the 3rd best receiver in the league - behind only Tyreek Hill and Justin Jefferson? That was stated by a NY sports media radio entertainer and while most likely trying to rile up the NYC audience, was dead serious in his statements. They guy making the statement and Hughes are really not that much different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
