If it is Hooker he joins group that includes Clayton Geathers, TJ Green, Darius Butler... Much needed but no help with rush :cool:

rcubed 04-27-2017 10:01 PM

its hooker

Indiana V2 04-27-2017 10:01 PM

I'm fine with Hooker.

Butter 04-27-2017 10:01 PM

Needed, but feel like we needed CB or edge must more. Don't love a Saftey so much right now.

Puck 04-27-2017 10:02 PM

Wow. love it

School: Ohio State | Year: Junior. Outstanding athlete. High school team in Pennsylvania won two state championships -- the only two years he played as a prep. Redshirted as a freshman at Ohio State and used primarily as a backup in 2015. Had big year in 2016. Targeted 36 times, with 16 burns (44 percent), only one TD allowed, seven interceptions, including three returned for scores. No interference or holding calls against him. Had 74 tackles last season, and played 96 snaps on special teams. Great recovery speed. Tough and competitive. Limited playing experience but has tremendous upside as a player.

If we can't have Barnett then Hooker is great. Fuck you Green. We can get a rusher in the second. Hooker will take away the deep ball.

Dam8610 04-27-2017 10:02 PM

Head scratcher there.

Well.... I really love the pick now.

FatDT 04-27-2017 10:05 PM

Allen must be in bad shape physically.

I would still be happy to trade back up into the first.

Brylok 04-27-2017 10:05 PM

I wanted a pass-rusher but I'm fine with this.

I agree, rather have Allen or Foster am good with Hooker but he was poor tackler at Ohio State ... Great ball hawk though ... :cool:

FatDT 04-27-2017 10:07 PM

No OL taken yet.

falloutboy14 04-27-2017 10:07 PM

Some good pass-rushers in the 2nd. Hookers one of the most talented players in the draft. It's a good year to not need offensive talent.

Puck 04-27-2017 10:07 PM

Gil Brandt had him as the 6th overall talent. Ahead of Allen

You should. He's being hyped as a Safety that's athletic enough to cover the slot guy.

Because it's not BPA. He's coming off a huge injury and has limited playing experience. I hope he works out to be Earl Thomas, but he carries a huge amount of risk for the 15th overall pick.

smitty46953 04-27-2017 10:08 PM

Ravens select CB Marlon Humphrey with the 16th pick, :cool:

Allen and Foster with medical questions. I think we are gonna get a great player in round 2 tomorrow

Malik Hooker may be closest thing to Ed Reed in ball hawking skills that I've seen on college tape...but thats getting a little previous.

:cool:

Hooker and Geathers at safety with Butler back in the slot solved 2 positions.

Green better figure his shit out because he is looking uphill at ever starting now

He'd have to show he has availability, first. It's the best ability.

If he is reed 2.0, then I am ok with that!

At first thought this is a Pags pick. Hope he doesn't fuck him up

DrSpaceman 04-27-2017 10:17 PM

I am hoping its not TJ Green 2.0

Shocked with Allen and Foster from Alabama there, we go for a safety.
