Hooker just improved his stock leaps and bounds.  His pocket presents is amazing.  I was impressed with Young too but if things go sideways and we don't get the top pick Hooker might be an option.

That was an amazing game.  Defense was pretty much non existent but what a game. 

Only problem is he's basically the same age as Darnold.  If you hit with him, you're getting a solid 9-10 years, not some longer 15ish year career.  But the upside is surely enticing. 

Young's feel for the game is unreal though.

Now it's time to see Levis against a proper defense

I only got to see the last drive of the game. Hooker seemed quite poised and had nice touch on his throws. He reminded me of Doug Williams when he was standing in the pocket. He even had the cream sickle orange color that Doug used to wear with Tampa Bay’s original uniforms 😆

I’ll definitely be paying lower attention to this young man as the college season progresses.

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.

And a coaching staff that basically gave Mahomes a full year to get acclimated. He didn't start until Week 17.

I'll take nine to ten years of good QB play and worry about trying to find the next one once he says he's thinking of hanging it up.

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
