I do wonder if it is a weight thing. Isn’t he 330+? If he reduces there, he may have plenty of athleticism, I just haven’t watched enough of his game to know outside of the RAS stuff

And absolutely no one talked about him going #1 even before he was injured. Thanks. Even @knoxville7 wouldn’t talk about going #1.

Your analysis doesn’t jive with his athletic profile. Do you really believe Wright wouldn’t be able to execute any assignment that Borom or Reiff have been tasked with in their time with the Bears?
Here’s a summary of his combine numbers:
“He recorded a 5.01-second 40-yard dash, ranking sixth among all offensive linemen. Wright’s 10-yard split of 1.81 seconds was 20th-best among his positional group.
Wright recorded a 9’6″ broad jump, ranking third among offensive linemen at the NFL scouting combine. He also recorded a 29-inch vertical jump, which was 21st among offensive linemen.
Wright finished the NFL scouting combine with a RAS score of 9.47, which was one of the highest marks among offensive linemen. Wright’s athleticism score of 85 was tied with Broderick Jones (Georgia) for second-best among offensive linemen.”

All of that was at 330 lbs…
He could drop 15 and maintain his physical dominance and further increase his movement skills.

If that is the case Poles nailed it with the trade down.

Yeah, @knoxville7 said he hoped it was a possibility, too. I’m not sure why he can’t lead pull and make the block. You could be right.

Def not. Just cuz one “expert” talked about him going top 10 doesn’t mean he will or should.
Love the kid, but he’s a 3rd rounder at best due to his age and injury.
I’ve always comped him as a slightly stronger armed Josh Dobbs. Smart qb that has good mobility.
Hooker will be an excellent backup QB for a decade. Nothing more, nothing less

Everything I’ve seen of the kid(which is more than the rest of CCS), I think he can play in the bears run system adequately at worst.
He’s just a big man, but he can move well for his size
He played LT and RT and took on the fastest defenders the college game has
Also, the notion that the UT offense is just a quick pass gimmick offense, doesn’t know jack shit. QB Hooker had the longest pass per attempt average, and you don’t get that by throwing quick passes.
They also ran the ball a hell of a lot more than people realize, and him playing RT last season was a big part of that

Yeah not sure many were talking about which QB would go #1 before the college season even got to the playoffs and Hooker even declared for the draft.
Thanks
