2016 Draft: QB Progress Watch

Aren't you a Titans fan?



If so, aren't you sick if getting bullied by this defense? Wouldn't you want us k draft offense?

 

I just don't see it with Hackenberg. He has "potential" but he never put it together in college. He's a project. A guy you hope can put it together because of his tools, but hasn't done it yet so it remains questionable whether he ever will. I don't know how much the draft process can help Hack because he can't change the fact that he underperformed in college. The narrative is that he has tools but underperformed on the field. How is the combine going to change that? It can't. Everybody knows he has tools. If he does well at the combine or in workouts, it'll really surprise no one. But the question will still remain whether he can perform in games or not.

IMO, you don't spend a first round pick on a guy like that. At this point, he has to be considered a project. Really not all that different from Tom Savage in that respect. And you don't take project QBs in the first. I'm sure he'll go higher than where other "project QBs" typically go, but I don't think it's the first round.

 

I just want the texans to prolong getting a quarterback for another year. lol

 

You guys make up a lot of excuses for loser QB's but can't stand to give props to a winner.

 

Absolutely! We need Tebow! All he does is win, they even made a song about it.

Nice try.

 

Watching Hogan from Stanford in the Rose Bowl. He looks like a leader. Seems like he's got QB tools. Wonder what his prospects are.

 

The argument goes something like this:

Hackenberg had his best year under O'Brien. He looked destined to be a future number one pick. He had the best talent around him, showed the best mechanics, and put up great numbers.

Since Franklin has taken over, he's in a system that doesn't quite fit him, with talent that is diminishing around him. His offensive line is absolutely horrendous. They run very screwy protection schemes that never result in actual protection. His receivers drop a lot of passes. He doesn't have a ton of playmakers to take pressure off of him.

Not only that, but he's mostly running out of the shotgun because of his line's lack of protection. His footwork has regressed because of these two things, which has resulted in his accuracy regressing. He still shows many glimpses each game, though, of being a potentially elite quarterback.

I say he'll rise up the boards because he's a great teammate and has a great football IQ. He'll display this as the combine, and he'll also be able to show his fundamentals while not under duress.

I compare him to Jay Cutler. Trent Dilfer compares him to Aikman. I think he falls somewhere between the two.

 

Jared Goff is without a doubt worth a first round pick.

 

It's O'Brien, it's going to be Hackenberg in the 2nd round.

 

I would be ok with this. Don't think he'll make it to round 3. A Garopollo feel to his draft stock

 

Dont understand where this comes from. BoB has had 17 draft pics and not a single one went to a player from Penn St. despite 6 players being drafted by other teams.

 

It would be funny if someone snapped up hackenburg right before the texans pick in the second round and they drafted another LB.

Just like what happened last year. But hey, yall will have your rb replacement.

 

For me it comes from his tendency to bring in Quarterbacks he is familiar with whenever he has had the chance. (Hoyer and Mallet).

 

It's funny that a Titans fan is talking about drafting QB's....I mean, the Titans just did that and they are still the laughing stock of the NFL and they are looking at potentially the top pick in the draft.

 

Talk to me when the texans ever get past anybody but career choker like andy dalton.

 

Coming from a fan of a team with as many playoff wins in the last 15 years as the Texans have in the last five....

 

LMFAO

Posted the stats recently, but Texans now dominate TEN head2head all-time record-wise, point-diff-wise, recent dominance-wise. AN EXPANSION vs AN ESTABLISHED FRANCHISE within 10 years of existence.

I'm surprised a Titas fan would even begin to argue, but life is.

 

Watching Chad Kelly from Ole Miss, I'd love it if he came out early. He's solid and has good bloodlines.
