Young looks good too.  I like Hooker because of his size. 6'4" and he looks like he can make all the throws.  He manages the Pocket well too.

Yeah, Hooker has looked extremely impressive so far today…Interesting but still a little concerned with his age

It’s a spread no huddle offense too. Doesn’t always translate, but Mahomes ran it at Texas Tech fwiw. 

Yes but Mahomes is a generational talent who ended up on a team with coaches that knew how to use him and players that would work with that system. Put the qb with the wrong system and team they might not be as good.

He doesn't look too impressive to me.

Doesn't ever get under center (red flag)

Doesn't huddle (red flag)

Plays in a hurry up so doesn't call plays (red flag)

It isn’t the 1960s, none of these are even remotely as important to quarterback evaluation as talent and traits. It’s hard to find any prospects at all who fit any of that criteria and none of those concerns are worrying going into the NFL anymore lmao

I don’t care about the size atp…Young has shown me what I need to see.  Dude is a magician 

At some point the peeps who knock his size have to see his wizardry.  He finds some of the prettiest damn windows.  He's got talent you don't see every year with moving around and finds such good placement.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
