What should the Saints’ plan be to upgrade at QB?

Read an interesting take on Hooker:

Negatives:

Over-aged; will be 25 years old by draft day. Torn ACL will likely influence draft stock. Scheme isn’t the most complex or pro-style; completion percentage is somewhat padded by a lot of quick, predetermined throws (swings, screens), as well as slants and crosses over the middle of the field. Didn’t take snaps from under center during the games reviewed. Had a lot of time to operate behind clean pockets with wide receivers projected to go high on draft day. Too many uncatchable balls on routine throws like screens and shorter throws over the middle of the field. Takes some risks on shots down the sidelines; can stare down targets, and placement is iffy, typically letting passes sail but sometimes underthrowing receivers. Would like to see him protect his body a little bit more consistently when running.

Projection: Round 3

If he falls that far (Day 2/3), I'd definitely take a flyer.

Most mocks don't have him falling into the 3rd.

Well he's days off crunches, not running yet and won't be ready for his late March pro day. At this point, no one really knows.

2nd to early 3rd round is my guess.

Hooker draft analysis.

Yikes. So in other words, everything you want in an NFL quarterback he does poorly 😂
