Stephen Hill

[@bonafidebanter]

Like Jamarcus Russell!

 

 

More like Christian Ponder, Danny Werfel, Gino Torretta, or Blaine Gabbert.

Stephen Hill: the new David Gettis?

He's more of a Taye Biddle at this point.

[Chief Keek]

If he earns the #2 spot in Training Camp then he can rightfully claim that title but otherwise he's still a project. He's shown some flashes here and there but nothing that says he's a solid starter at WR in the league.

[Rags]

I don't think he's as good as the saviors say he is, nor as bad as te doubters make him out to be

 

 

let's just see where he is during TC, Yeah?

[h0llywood]

 

I'll take his potential over anything currently on the roster at WR aside from KB who I remember many of you lauded for having the drops, now he's our clear cut #1 let the plan play out. 

 

Can't tell if Stephen Hill likes to take a knee when he catches the ball or if Mark Sanchez likes to under throw his passes.

pie for Biddle reference forgot about him

Yall kill me...... so negative, being a number 2 is not a push.... he has talent size and speed, and has been working with the receivers coach all years and will get a full off season to work on everything some more.

 

What you say makes sense.  Most don't think he will overcome whatever it is that kept him off the field this past season.  I don't disagree about size and speed but there's one thing he must do as a receiver; catch the ball.  Especially when defenders are around him.

I was under the thought that they were prepping him for a legitimate shot this year.

Hill is insurance....... not saying its great or good, but still he's young, cheap, and has "potential".

If there's one WR coach that can make hill a legit nfl WR, its ricky. He's had one year, plus this offseason. Its time to show if he's got it or not. Dave is always adding players, some of which pan out. Lucas, presly, and brown have skills and talent. Sure they are lesser known, but there's more to being WR than speed.

Where is all of the talk about Ricky being a great WR coach really coming from? I know that Smitty gives him a lot if credit in his development when Ricky was a WR here. However, what great talent has Ricky really developed as a coach?

Just wondering people's perspective.

[gettlemanjack]

I think the plan was to keep him on the practice squad all season regardless of how well he improved. Give him a season just to learn.

basically. think of it like a redshirt year

He's still young in his nfl coaching job. Before that he was owner in a HUGE gym/workout area(22acres). Thats when a few WR started coming to get rickys' training. It was building each year. Smitty went there for a few weeks during the offseason. Ricky also was a guest coach (for the day) at few colleges.

The WR allen @ san diego was a ricky student, but he's not a "great" talent. Hills agent was rickys and said he could do wonders for hill. In a way ricky been a "coach" for around 20 years. KB is off to a great start, right? I've also heard olsen credit ricky too.

This was a good read. Yes I am aware it was written on bleacher report but it is a good analysis of Hill's time with the Jets.
