Meanwhile, as NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal suggests, expecting a guy to start right away is one thing. Comparing him to Calvin Johnson is another. But that's the first name that came to mind when Jets vice president of college scouting Joey Clinkscales was asked for someone Hill is like. "He's unique. He's a 6-foot-4 kid that's 215 and runs a 4.32. I mean he's a unique athlete, he really is. I mean, Calvin Johnson, maybe," Clinkscales told the Newark Star-Ledger on Friday night. "I'm not going to put that label on him, but from a height, weight, speed moniker. ... You know he's just a unique athlete." In addition to Hill not being quite in Johnson's league yet, we'll also point out that Mark Sanchez isn't going to be mistaken for Matthew Stafford any time soon.
