This is professional football not junior high volleyball. Jackson was a high second round pick, top 40 overall. He has almost zero impact to the team, I hope he can turn the corner and at least supply a Bethel Johnson type impact (deep threat plus kick returns).
The 2:1 trade the Patriots made to select Jackson was one of the Patriots worst draft decisions under BB. He is now in year 3 of a 4 year contract, lets hope "Kid Potential" can learn some of the plays. Right now I slot him in for 25 catches and 4 TDs.
Chad Jackson 2006 - 12 gm, 1 gs, 13 rec, 152 yds, 3 TD
Greg Jennings 2006 - 14 gm, 11 gs, 45 rec, 632 yds, 3 TD
Jennings got more opportunities their rookie year and had more production...but nothing spectacular. WRs not named Moss generally have a marginal impact on team success their first year. Jennings had a huge jump this past year which CJack missed due to the ACL (you can hold the injury against him if you want, but your arguments start to look petty).
That being said, this year is huge for CJack to show a jump in productivity. That productivity will be measured in snaps taken and ability for Brady to spread the field (not holding onto the ball waiting for Moss/Welker to come open).
The age aspect is interesting though:
Greg Jennings = 09/21/83
Donnie Avery = 06/12/84 (1st WR taken in 2008 draft)
Chad Jackson = 03/06/85
The age aspect is also interesting for the folks that feel like Hobbs has reached his ceiling and isn't a starting caliber CB:
Ellis Hobbs = 05/15/83
J. Wilhite = 02/23/84
Since Hobbs is only 9 months older than a draftee in this years draft, people might want to give him a little more time before drawing conclusions on his potential.
