We haven't hit on a second round pick in years. We don't have a qb, so why not take a shot? Until we get a franchise qb, we are pissing into the wind. Now we should draft a few fatties and hope we can find a rg.
So does every armchair QB in the history of ever. The one time that someone makes the right call, they beat their chests. Never do I see someone come out and say that they miss 99 out of 100 times. I trust our front office, HC and OC. I don't trust neckbeard armchair QB's.
Times like this make me not want to be a Jets fan. Not because of the Hackenberg pick but because of the "fan" reaction. It's the same arrogant bullshit that we saw when Porzingis was taken and the same shit that made Fireman Ed quit. And before some assholes call me a Hackenberg homer, I'm not. I don't even like the pick that much, but I'm not going to be a vindicative asshat because of that.
I'm not thrilled. To say he isn't talented is moronic. Sanchez does not have more talent on his pinky then this guy. But I still don't like it. I watched him play and was never impressed.
Awful,why not draft Paxton Lynch if we were gonna do this.....We have a QB who broke the Jets td record......his name is Ryan fucking Fitzpatrick.What is Mac thinking
Because Pennington, one of the most accurate QB's in NFL history, announced the pick of who is sure to be the least accurate QB to ever set foot on a NFL field
No, I would say their tenure is tied to getting Fitz under contract now. .... or maybe Petty panning out? Could drafting this HACK be the ultimate leverage play, taking him in the 2nd round, talking him up just to put pressure on Fitz and his agent lowering their demands? That would be the only way this is a good pick.
Well when you put it like that, what the fuck is the front office thinking? What do they possibly see in this guy that no one else sees? I don't get it at all.
You are spot on regarding. How many Jet fans there acting like jerks after the pick. I'm sick of that.
I live in the Harrisburg area. I can't even begin to think about the shit I'm gonna hear at work now. Between the new Jets "fans" and haters.... Fuck. Why.
The fans who act as if NFL GMS are perfect and are infallable are silly. It doesn't take a genius to watch Hackenberg and see he's a 6th round QB The NFL's archaic view of evaluating QBS is one of the reasons why they consistenly miss. So while I do not know more the game of football than any Jets scout or the GM, I am informed enough to know that Hackenberg was?is a bad pick. I'll be rooting for him, but anyone who defends this pick is being a homer.
I'm beyond excited for this kid if you're gonna crucify him before he even gets a chance to prove you wrong then you might as well find a new hobby.
Besides the fact that Hackenberg has never impressed me, this is my biggest issue with the pick right here.
