Only has 3 All pro selections, only 1 of those are 1st team. No where near HOF material.

He also was a 2010's All decade selection and only 15 sacks shy of getting 130 for his career (The magic number for HOF level career sacks). He's also one of, if not the, best run stopping defensive ends since he came into the league. 

He's closer to the HOF than you think.

Agreed. Is he a first ballot guy? No. Will he eventually go in? More than likely.

Also, regarding Trey Lance - A stat that blew my mind:

Tom Brady threw more passes last season (799) than Trey Lance has thrown in his HS, College, and Pro Career COMBINED (798).

 

It blew my mind watching the Niners trade so much value to take a guy that was so inexperienced.

We've seen teams draft guys you knew would bust in the top 3-5.  We've seen teams draft guys that everybody thought were sure-fire hits that high, and have them miss.  We've seen teams reach for guys in the top 5. 

What set this apart was that they traded up at a king's ransom price to do so to then reach for him.  Everybody knew he was going to take time to develop because of his inexperience, and there was no body of work to indicate he would develop, let alone pay off to the tune of what they paid to draft him.

I get it, he was "their guy," they believed they could mold him, and they didn't think he would stay on the board much longer, but sometimes getting "your guy" is the worst thing that can happen. 

People may think that trading up for Young was just as big a risk, but Young has a body of work to judge his potential by.  Lance was basically a "good guess."

Broncos site hating on Hackett:

Well, on Thursday, during the Hall of Fame game, Nathaniel Hackett and his Jets' offense put up 16 points, which I think is hilarious. Yes, it's the Hall of Fame game. It's just a preseason game, and most starters aren't even suiting up. There is absolutely no indication that the Jets scoring 16 points in this game is going to spill into the regular season.

However, it is kind of funny to see. In Hackett's first game post-Broncos, his offense couldn't score 20 points. I do think it would be quite funny to see the Jets struggle on offense like that in the regular season. Maybe Aaron Rodgers is indeed over the hump a bit. Maybe Nathaniel Hackett isn't the best play-caller in the world.

Only time will tell.

Stupid comment for a preseason game. Hope the Jets' O scorches the Broncos' D in week 5.

Yep.  Equating much of any offensive output in the Hall of Fame game with what will happen in the regular season is a useless exercise.  I'm not sold on the Jets and Rodgers, either, but assessing Hackett's play calling based on that game or even using it to validate his futile effort in Denver is, well, stupid.

It is about like us piling on The Process based on a lousy scrimmage in Lincoln, NE.  While I would like to pile on him, that wouldn't be the ammo I would use.

Definitely stupid considering the Jets didn't play any starters at skill positions......if at all on offense

Lance was way riskier IMO. I'd rather roll the dice on a guy who is historically small but has shown the ability to play at an extremely high level at the highest level of football outside of the NFL vs. a guy who has great physical tools but only one year of playing at a D1AA program.

    • Necas is going to be stud with a team like leafs that lets their stars shine. I’m going to miss that guy. 
    • ast updated today 19th May 2024 Some people are unsure if Sugar Defender  is real, so here's the truth: there's no evidence that it's a scam. The company clearly lists all the ingredients and doesn't make wild promises. Instead, they support their claims with scientific studies. They have research backing up what they say about Sugar Defender's benefits. Even if some people are skeptical, there's no proof that Sugar Defender is fake. It's important to look at the facts and see that the company is being honest and open about their product.         Order Now Sugar Defender and Get 85% Off   The best part about this supplement is that it's really easy to use, and you don't need to do anything extra to keep your blood sugar levels steady. Plus, it's all-natural and made safely to address the main cause of blood sugar problems.   How long does it take for Sugar Defender to work? How fast Sugar Defender works can be different for each person. It depends on things like how fast your body works, any health issues you already have, and how often you use it. But since they give you 60 days to try it out and get your money back if it doesn't work for you, it's likely that most people see some changes within that time if they use it like they're supposed to. For the best results, use it for at least 90 days.   What Is Sugar Defender? Sugar Defender is a special formula that helps your body respond better to insulin. It's made with the purest ingredients. Every ingredient has been tested many times to make sure they're the best, and the company says there are no stimulants, chemicals, or things that could cause allergies in it. They make it in a super clean lab that follows strict rules. The goal of Sugar Defender is to naturally lower your blood sugar levels and keep them steady and healthy. It's a supplement that won't get you hooked and doesn't have any stimulants or GMOs. And guess what? It's easy to use! Each bottle has enough for a whole month. Just take the right amount every day, and you're all set!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
    • Agree on Necas, he’s gone. Guentzel seems 50-50 to me, Canes would have to pony up. Still not sure Skjei will be back. From exit interviews he seemed less optimistic than Pesce and I definitely don’t think Pesce is back. Jarvis and Noesen have to be back. I think if Kuzy shoots more he could be a great asset. Put him with a passer like Turbo and a net front like Noesen.
