Unequivocally.

Drafting Hooker in the first round is a possibility since it would give us the fifth year option and I'm not sure that he would be there at pick #40 in the second round, which means we would probably have to trade up using additional draft capital that we badly need to fill several glaring roster holes.

Surgery and rehab has come along way recently and athletes comeback quicker and stronger than previous treatments allowed. Hooker says he sometimes feels the need to slow down some because he is so far ahead of schedule and doesn't want to risk injuring his knee.

I would be ecstatic if the Saints draft him. Even if Carr in under contract I still want to draft him for the future and not just focus on the short term solution.

60%+ completion percentage every year
Low int numbers and almost 30 passing TD's per season.

Those are some eye opening numbers.

I have never been more adamant about wanting to draft a player. He's smart, accurate, and knows what it takes to win. He's a true leader. Both on and off the field. His moxy and intangibles are off the charts.
