    The only thing between him and greatness is hard work. He has all the physical tools. Let's hope his enthusiasm keeps up.

    He's going to quickly become a fan favorite if he keeps up that attitude.

    And football instincts, but hard work and experience can help there, and he already has some football abilities to average 29.3 YPC.

    Best quote I've read in a while.

    The guy has the physical tools that very few players in the history of the NFL have had. His upside is that of a Hall of Famer. I'm not saying he's going to go that far, but it's going to be really exciting to see him develop through the next few years.

    Hill has the potential to make this offense truly explosive. When is the last time we could say that about the Jets team? 1998 was the only year in my lifetime.

    Coples has big potential on the defensive line, and he'll be fun to watch develop, too. But most Jets fans seem to be more excited about Hill, and I tend to agree.

    It took me a few days of watching his games and getting over not taking DeCastro, but I'm on the Coples wagon, now. IMO, his ceiling is still above Hill's.

    Either way, I'm liking a lot of the guys we've brought into this rookie camp.

    Hopefully some of his attitude will rub off on a few other players.

    Even Davis is exciting. It's great coming out of the draft knowing you've drafted Julius Peppers, Calvin Johnson and Ray Lewis! :beer:

    Give me 30 catches and 6 to 7 TDs (One from Tebow of course) and you will make me a very happy fan!

    This will make Holmes much better at the end of the day, he's got to be excited for Stephen Hill and what he can bring to the table. Hopefully he learns alot from Tone.

    Right attitude. Play for the game not the fame.
