Age is just a part of it.  Levis is in a nfl offense.  Hooker is in a mickey mouse offense with no overwhelming traits and will be 25 at draft time.  Also has accuracy concerns.  I doubt the heisman trophy moves the needle for nfl gms anymore.  Give it a listen they talk about hooker towards the end.  

He is 70% completion rate on the season?  How is that accuracy concerns?  I get they run the no huddle, air raid style offense, (Mahomes ran something similar) but he sits back and goes through reads.  I live in Knoxville and watched most of his games, I was at the one last week.  His accuracy is what made him the starter.  Last year they started Milton from Michigan who has a cannon, but had trouble with the timing and accuracy required to run that offense.  Hooker came in early in the season and they jumped up in offensive efficiency.  I wouldn't take him in the top of the draft, but late first/early second I would definitely consider him.

I should have put a disclaimer on that post.  Those are not my critiques of him but those three guys in the podcast.  I havent watched that much of hooker tbh.  The alabama game and maybe another one.

 

But at 25 and having to completely change to a nfl offense is concerning.

Watch the actual throws and not just the stats. Lots of wide open receivers. Lots of receivers making adjustments to "area code" balls.

Half of Rattlers problem is a porous OLine and WRs dropping balls. Every game I watch there is at least 5 to 6 dropped passes. It's unreal.

Not to mention play calling isn't helping him at all, seems like every series its run, run, WR screen, punt.  Either the OC doesn't trust him to throw the ball, or he is just an idiot

There are definitely some adjustments, but mostly on deep balls which still happens in the NFL, it's more of a timing issue to me.  I've seen it draw PI a lot because the WR has to slow down or stop and the CB runs into them.  His mid/short range accuracy looks on point.  Hyatt is an elite WR that gets open a lot and his number 1 has been out for a while now, but I really don't see accuracy as an issue.  He does everything well, just nothing elite IMO.

Mine is evolving but the guy I’m REALLY coming around to and like over Hooker, first after that top-3 is Penix Jr. 

His arm is arguably the best in class, has the size, no age concerns, some mechanics to improve on, but man, I’ve really liked him after diving more into Wash football. He’s made the most next level NFL throws in this class outside of Young and Levis. Seriously has some beauts.

I also like McKee’s tools more than what you may get with a Hooker long term. He’s a slightly better David Mills with better downfield balls. 

1. Young 2. Levis 3. Stroud 4. Penix 5. McKee 5. McCall 6. Hooker

MPJ’s Michigan State game had some absolute DIMES

Fringe R1/R2 is Penix for me

R 2-3 is McKee, McCall, & Hooker

Hooker is just a tough sell. Would need to be able to start playing immediately and he has stuff to work on

I hate this breakdown..  It’s like if you don’t play in a Mickey Mouse system and you play in a pro style offense and make reads it’s boring.. or you don’t move the needle..

1. Stroud - they will try the neg thing on him but I don’t see much wrong with his game.. College production over years +
Physical talent +
pro ready (runs a pro system) +
 

2. Young - other then size and more scary weight. He’s up there with Stroud

3. Hooker - older prospects in a Mickey Mouse offense.. And it took him time to produce..

4. Levi’s - most physically gifted player.. But got a lot of Sam Darnold traits when reading defenses..

5. Richardson - built like Cam.. Raw like The Golden Calf of Bristol.. You need Sean Payton, Andy Reid or Bruce Arians.. Before drafting him..

6. Corral - talented arm frail body..

I'll take accuracy over system all day every day. That translates.

    • Adding on to that - I know I read from some reporter that Dak Prescott's mentality is extremely fragile. Get in his head, and he loses focus and confidence. Per that reporter,  anytime a big game comes up, he starts to have the jitters and hasn't seem to overcome that slump. Dak would be an upgrade over Bryce as things currently stand. But Dak has not proven he can play in games that matters without choking. Bryce hasn't had the chance to show anything in the NFL, so nothing much to say there. But based on his history, he's done well in college in the national championship. Theoretically he should be more confident in big games if he gets to that point. For that alone, I'd rather keep rolling the dice on Bryce or set our sights higher. I wouldn't touch Dak with a 10 ft pole given his choking habits.
    • Same here brother, love Xavier I think he’s gonna become a quick fan favorite of the team. He already has gone viral for his country accent, we have no face of the franchise currently outside of maybe Derrick Brown in terms of media attention. I would not be surprised if in the next 4 years Xavier becomes that media darling we used to have in the 2010s with Luke, Cam, Josh Norman, CMC, etc.  
    • I haven't been high on any of the WRs we drafted in the past.   This kid though is someone I actually wanted. I have a feeling we finally hit big with this kid. I'm expecting him to be a DJ Moore caliber WR.
