Go listen to Matt's (post #255) recent take on After Further Review ... get(draft) a QB on a rookie deal & reset.

Don't overpay for mediocrity.

Amen... Preach it K

Screw it.... Draft Hooker and roll with who we have already on the roster

It’s crazy watching how even the media has jumped on the bandwagon for Hooker. I feel like I started this. 😏😂

NeauxFW... better broad jump and vertical jump than Mahomes.. in combine history?

Doesn't matter if he can't play QB. Maybe it matters for a WR?

Athletically gifted but his tape says he’s a project @ QB.

It only takes one team to believe in his talent but I don’t see 1st rd traits.

IMO Hooker is a much better prospect.

People said exactly the same things about Lamar Jackson who earned a unanimous MVP at QB. Go figure.

The difference being however that Lamar had stats to back himself up.

69 TD's to 27 interceptions in 3 years

Anthony Richardson has 24 TD's to 15 interceptions in 3 years.

I agree with what Rez said earlier, he should have stayed in college for 1 more year.

The combine to me is also not a great judge, athletically he is a beast, no doubt about it. But all the analysts are getting wowed about him throwing 60 yards downfield with no defender on the field, much like Jamarcus Russell could do.

Yup. No telling. Never saw him play a snap. I was just commenting that I heard the exact same comments about Jackson of whom I had never seen play a snap.

Maybe, I guees no problem with his injury? What other draft candidates might we have a shot for, without giving away our picks?
