Reasons to be on the Stephen Hill bandwagon


Jakob

Recommended Posts

Looking at the situation with the NY Jets it appears they have never committed to any of their receivers or QBs.

 

In 2012, the Jets trade up to get Stephen Hill.

 

He walks into the The Golden Calf of Bristol/Sanchez mess. He never has any consistency at QB in year 1. Then they draft Geno in year 2 and Geno struggles through preseason and they go with Geno at the last second of preseason. Then they tail back the passing game for Geno. Now you have Mike Vick in the picture.

 

He has had no consistency in the offensive system or offensive coordinators. Sparano year 1 and Mornhinweg in year 2.

 

The Jets had 7 receiving targets in 2013. None of the receivers topped 50 receptions. They had 3 TE with just as many receptions as the WR. And the RB was the #2 receiver with 36 receptions. In 2012, the Jets had 11 receiving targets with all but one of them under 30 receptions. They never committed to a receiving unit. Almost like receiving by committee. That is insane. How do you develop a young QB or young WR with that kind of garbage going on? Most teams will have about 3 to 5 players share the bulk of the receptions - not 11.

 

Hill catches the ball consistently. The biggest issue looks like his RAC. But I attribute that to their hellish situation with their passing game. Bring him in. He has more talent than all but Benjamin at the receiver position. If he can catch the ball consistently, then he is a perfect fit for the Panthers offense. It goes to the same reason I called for Benjamin in the draft. He fits Cam. Your receivers must be an extension of your QB not the other way around.

 

I would not be the least bit surprised if Proehl takes this kid under his wing and turns him into a #2 by the end of the season.

They said Ginn couldn't catch, and he came here and did just fine. From what I've seen this guy doesn't have any trouble catching the ball, but his hands do look about as small as Donald Lafell's hands which is a bad sign.

 

 

6'4",  215lb of muscle, runs a 4.36 40, young and has a lot to prove. That has to be better than the slow washed up WRs we have now.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
