Christian Hackenberg 2017 Outlook
The Jets are planning a three-man competition for their starting quarterback job, and, as Profootballtalk.com recently suggested, watching a battle unfold between Josh McCown, Bryce Petty and Hackenberg probably isn't something most people would describe as thrilling. One of those three players doesn't share that feeling, however. Hackenberg said the competition will be "really exciting" and he felt good about himself as things started ramping up with organized team activities in May. The 2016 second-round pick also said he feels more comfortable than he did last year and that his confidence has ticked up as a result. Confidence is obviously a necessity for an NFL starter, but so is talent and Hackenberg never got a chance to show his off during his rookie season as he remained on the bench all year. But he did look awful in the preseason, which added to doubts about his ability coming out of Penn State. Still, his draft position and the lack of a clear starter in New York might increase the likelihood of Hackenberg's talent being displayed on-field before the 2017 season ends.
Christian Hackenberg 2016 Outlook
As Profootballtalk.com noted, Hackenberg, who was drafted by the Jets with the 51st pick, generated a sharp split of opinions coming out of Penn State. The Jets came down on the side that saw his size and arm strength as building blocks for a player who can contribute in the future rather than the side that took Hackenberg’s collegiate inaccuracy as a sign that he’d fail to make it at the next level. Remember, as a true freshman, Hackenberg mastered current Texans HC Bill O’Brien’s pro-style offense. But after O’Brien left for Houston, Hackenberg struggled with accuracy in Penn State’s new shotgun system, throwing more interceptions (15) than touchdowns (12) as a sophomore, and finishing with a 53.5 percent completion rate his junior year in 2015. Meanwhile, Hackenberg presently sits behind Geno Smith on the Jets’ depth chart, but the team’s lack of progress with Ryan Fitzpatrick on a new contract means that there may still be a change at the top. Fitzpatrick’s return would lessen the chances of Hackenberg seeing early playing time, but that’s probably not a bad thing no matter which side you identify with regarding his professional prospects.
