What's the deal with Hendon Hooker not getting as much draft love? I thought he was a good thrower to all parts of the field and has two years of good production.

Not a single QB from the Baylor offense has worked out in the NFL. Most weren’t even drafted. Hooker has limited physical traits, not like RG3 who was obviously drafted high.

It's just what happens when you tear your ACL

He's old, had a major knee injury which will likely prevent him from doing pre-draft workouts, and I'm sure plenty of scouts aren't convinced of his skill level playing in a gimmicky offense at UT when he was very average at Va Tech. He wasn't nearly as effective when they couldn't run their offense at warp speed

Hooker isn't high on the list because he is old enough to be all of those other QB's dad

He had a very late breakout age, which will always spook NFL teams… he turns 25 next month.

In the back of every GM’s mind is going to be the question of whether he’s a legit starting talent at the next level or if he’s just been successful because he has 4 years of extra experience over the defense.
