This has beeen exactly my point since November!

Well who's the next Aiden Hutchinson type because that kid will be a stud.Different types of players. Hutch is 6'7, 260. Van Ness 6'5", 272. Hutch has length and is much more bendy (3-cone was nuts!). Van Ness is a power rusher, who has speed to work with, but not as much bend/agility.
Yeah he is a classic mid round QB. The upside is there but so many negatives that one practically intends to turn the player into a quality backup on a rookie deal instead of a quality starter, while the team continues to consider what the future at QB will be.Yeah, I read that. It’s insane, if true.
To me, Hooker is a 3rd round guy with upside. It’s just his age and injury, combined with he likely needs to sit and learn a year. Can’t be using a top 5 pick on that
Now, I do think he likely has a better career than Levis.
What would these "so many negatives" be? I like the kid but i also don't think i do as much homework on some players as some of you do.Yeah he is a classic mid round QB.

To that end, Seattle is somewhat of a perfect fit for him. Minnesota for that matter, too. I could see Tampa Bay drafting him and looking at their QB competition as Seattle did when they drafted Russell Wilson.

Mike Tannenbaum has Hooker going top 5.

5. Seattle Seahawks (from DEN)
“Hendon Hooker, QB, Tennessee
OK, this one might raise some eyebrows, but hear me out. I think Hooker is really under-scouted right now, largely because he's coming off the torn ACL in his left knee. But I love his strong arm and 6-3 frame. Before the injury, Hooker looked great for the Vols. He led the nation in yards per attempt (9.5), threw two interceptions over 11 starts and was a top-10 passer in terms of completion percentage (69.6%). I see a potential franchise quarterback and someone who can lead an offense. Go watch his performance against Alabama if you disagree.
The Seahawks recently re-signed Geno Smith, but this is an excellent opportunity to draft and develop Hooker while also letting him rehab the knee. Smith turns 33 this season, and his new contract offers Seattle various outs over the next three seasons.”

It Beer Goggle season. Guys shoot up and down boards depending on which way the wind is blowing.Yeah he is a classic mid round QB.

Don't see one in this class. Wilson has the length (and then some) but nowhere near the agility. All the guys that have similar agility are much smaller.Well who's the next Aiden Hutchinson type because that kid will be a stud.
Tyree Wilson?
Myles Murphy?
Felix Anudike Uzomah?
Could Nolan Smith do it or just too small for a 4-3 defense?
Nobody?

Please explain Mr. Genius.You're an idiot
Can't stand Saban, what a jerk.He, like many other Vols, have suffered for a good 17 years till this season.
For a really proud program, with rich tradition…it’s been rough. Especially when all of your rivals have found great success(many times at your expense) during that time. Bama, Florida, Georgia
That Tennessee/Bama game is one of those once in a lifetime type moments. I’ve never seen anything like that in a Tennessee football game, or felt anything like that. And I am old enough to where I was a teenager in 1998 when we won it all
Funny side note…Nick Saban has been crying about the realignment proposals for adding Texas and Oklahoma.
He whines that Alabama will have to play Tennessee, LSU, and Texas A&M every year and thinks that’s much harder than some of the other SEC west schools have it
He can shut the **** right up. Tennessee has ALWAYS had to play Bama, Florida, and Georgia every single year.
Crying about competition…Saban is such a lil ***** boi
You don't mean underwhelming really do you? Everyone says it's a super strong group 7-8+ starters.I think Kmet is going to get an extension. But they will most likely draft a TE. It's kind of an underwhelming class though. I would guess they'll wait 'til Day 3.

So, I was like, I remember watching it AND posting it, then I started looking for it today, and now I remember why I can’t find it: it got pulled down for violation. It was one of the Windy City all 22 vids that got pulled.If you're seeing it show up on tape maybe it's an issue then. I was under the impression that it was hard to find film of him pulling.
There really isn’t one. Maybe in terms of a physical comp, there is Zach Harrison, but he’s being projected into the 3rd round! It kind of is why people are saying t DE is so deep, it’s a hodge lodge with no real outlier with all the qualities you want. I mean, even the top dude, Anderson is more of a 3-4 OLB due to his size.Well who's the next Aiden Hutchinson type because that kid will be a stud.
