BADOLBILZ Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Whaley strikes me as someone who would pay now for services from Hooker later.
Kirby Jackson Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Hooker is not that style of player. Yep, he's more Ed Reed than Polamalu. Hooker is a rangy playmaker but not the thumper that some of these guys are. Edited February 1, 2017 by Kirby Jackson
CommonCents Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Yep, he's more Ed Reed than Polamalu. Hooker is a rangy playmaker but not the thumper than some of these guys. A game wrecker not a hit man!
Augie Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Yep, he's more Ed Reed than Polamalu. Hooker is a rangy playmaker but not the thumper than some of these guys. Thumping is considered "mean" now, and draws yellow flags, not to mention fines. Or at least so it seems....
atlbillsfan1975 Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 @nfldraftscout Malik Hooker had surgery Tuesday on a torn labrum and a hernia that he played through late this season. He will miss the Combine. @nfldraftscout Pretty impressive Hooker played through those injuries against Michigan and Clemson and still looked like a top 10 player. Pain meds are a wondrous thing
Dragonborn10 Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Second round steal! Doesnt take much to see a player drop. Thumping is considered "mean" now, and draws yellow flags, not to mention fines. Or at least so it seems.... Not really. Hitting the head and trying to injure defenseless guys is a penalty. Very few weak unnecessary roughness calls this year.

Very few weak unnecessary roughness calls this year. I recall what I felt were some clean hits where the "hittee" was lowering in preparation for contact, and the contact slid from face mask to the chest up to crown of the head to the chin. Keep this up and you can't hit above the belly button. Many may disagree, but I remember getting pissed a few times this year (even in non-Bills games) wondering what else the guy could have done. Maybe that's just me...

4merper4mer Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Why limit this thread to Hooker? Let's get ANGRY with Whaley for picking 5-10 different players that he hasn't picked yet. We can work in all sorts of guys that are injured, reaches, not in a position of need, and even throw in a guy at #10 that was projected to go in the 50s. This way we can get really mad.
purple haze Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 not in terms of projected performance but in terms of the poster who said these are "wear and tear" injuries typical of players who have played a lot of CFB. They still practice and use those muscles in that setting. They also lift, run, etc, constantly.
boyst Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 How is his spleen?!?! And we love tOSU safeties @ 10
Marty McFly Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 If what the early consensus in the scouting community seems to suggest is true and Hooker is there at 10, you jump on it and never look back. He will be the best player on the board by a country mile. this pretty much. if they can trade back into the teens for a a few picks and an extra 2nd Rounder this year and STILL get hooker, well damn. Whaley would have won the off-season without Rex Pain meds are a wondrous thing hell yeah.
BringBackFergy Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Two questions: 1) Did he put off the surgery for the past 30 days because he went to Disney World? 2) Did he injure his labia cleaning gutters at his parents' house?
ndirish1978 Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 Well that's it then, we're drafting him for sure. Whaley will say he has a clean bill of health and then he will miss half the season.
Coach Tuesday Posted February 2, 2017 Posted February 2, 2017 (edited) Whaley strikes me as someone who would pay now for services from Hooker later. Whaley strikes me as someone who would take the risk of trying to find a Hooker on the street. Edited February 2, 2017 by Coach Tuesday
