Hendon Hooker News
Hendon Hooker will sit · May 9, 2023
Lions head coach Dan Campbell said he views 2023 as "a redshirt year" for rookie quarterback Hendon Hooker
Hooker continues to rehab from a torn ACL and veteran signal caller Jared Goff, a free agent in 2025, played well in 2022. Furthermore, the Lions continued to add playmakers at all skill positions again and Goff stands to benefit greatly again in 2023. Hooker will get the benefit of not being rushed under-center as the 25-year-old adjusts to the pace of the game. Sparsely ranked as DLF's QB37, it's not out of the question that the rookie doesn't see the field for multiple seasons, depending on Jared Goff's play above him.
Hendon Hooker drafted by Detroit · Apr 29, 2023
The Detroit Lions drafted Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
There was a lot of chatter pointing to Hooker being taken in round one but in the end he fell all the way to round three. However, he landed with the Detroit Lions who aren't married to Jared Goff long-term. This is a great landing spot for Hooker, who will likely hold a clipboard next season as he continues to rehab for the Lions and learn under Goff. Should the Lions struggle or Goff show signs of regression, they now have a solid insurance policy. The dynasty value of Hooker is going to tough to value. As it stands, he's likely a late second or third round pick in both dynasty formats.
Hendon Hooker top-20? · Apr 24, 2023
In Todd McShay's pre-draft buzz report, he's heard Hendon Hooker will be "picked in the top 20."
It has been a stellar rise for Hooker, the 25-year-old rookie who remains an intriguing linchpin during the upcoming NFL Draft. He's been mentioned as a fallback option for multiple teams needing to address the position, specifically Houston, Tennessee, Minnesota, Tampa Bay and Seattle. Most intriguing are the Texans who are now believed to be, potentially, foregoing a selection of quarterback with their second-overall pick. The league hasn't been kind to old rookies but leaguewide need at the position is driving his ranking and value higher. Now fully expected to be selected in the first-round, the mystery will likely be solved before day-one of the draft comes to a close. Hendon Hooker is found as DLF's QB5 and the R17 overall in our superflex rankings.
Mock Draft: Hendon Hooker · Apr 23, 2023
Hendon Hooker continues his pre-draft ascent with NFL.com's Peter Schrager suggesting the Titan's will select him 11th-overall in the 2023 NFL Draft
More notably, Schrager has Hooker selected one spot ahead of Will Levis, who is selected by the Texans with their second pick in the round. The selection would be a huge win for the Texans should they forego a quarterback with their second-overall selection, though Levis has recently been indicated as the potential second-overall selection more recently. It only goes to show how the predraft smoke and mirrors continue to make accurate predictions far more an exercise in folly. Hooker remains DLF's QB5 but seems to be a likely first-round selection on day one of the NFL Draft.
Hendon Hooker to visit Packers · Apr 6, 2023
Hendon Hooker will meet with the Packers this week
It's not out of the question the Packers would be looking at selecting a quarterback early in the NFL Draft, perhaps as early as day one. The team famously surprised everyone when they selected Jordan Love in the first round of 2020 while Aaron Rodgers was still in good standing with the team. Now with Rodgers fully expected to join the Jets in the next month, a selection of another quarterback would make more sense in 2023 than it did in 2020. Hooker has been making the rounds and his dynasty rookie value is on the rise as DLF's QB5 an the R25 overall in our superflex rooking rankings. Expect his ascent to continue as we approach the NFL Draft.
Mock Draft: Hendon Hooker · Apr 4, 2023
In Todd McShay's most recent mock draft, Hendon Hooker is selected 23rd-overall by the Vikings
The selection makes a lot of sense and Hooker has been not-so quietly rising in recent weeks following news his recovery from a torn ACL is going well. Veteran Kirk Cousins is likely in his last year with the team making for a perfect pairing with Hooker, who will need a year to fully recover while learning an NFL playbook. Hooker is old for a rookie, recently turning 25, but has the size, intelligence and arm talent coveted by the NFL. Ranked as DLF's QB5, but only the R25 overall in superflex rankings, Hooker will be on the rise if this mock draft pans out.
Mock Draft: Hendon Hooker · Mar 29, 2023
In Mike Tannenbaum's most recent mock draft, Hendon Hooker is selected 5th-overall by the Seahawks
Well, that's an eye-opener and Tannenbaum's says as much while explaining that this mock is a twist on the draft as he takes a GM view for each team. Hooker has been rising since the NFL Combine with only his recent ACL injury holding back further ascent. Tannenbaum mentions Hooker's size, arm strength and decision making as upside traits which should garner a high selection. Hooker is found as DLF's QB5 but, as the R28 (overall) on our superflex rankings. It doesn't seem to be a stretch to believe he will be a late-second selection in superflex drafts as injury concern gives way to upside potential in the quarterback-premium format.
Hendon Hooker progressing · Mar 4, 2023
Hendon Hooker is progressing well following his November ACL tear and is on track to be ready for the season opener.
Word is that the Hooker has received positive medical reports in Indy during the Combine and while the older (25) rookie won't be competing in drills this weekend, he's received high marks for interviews, maturity, leadership and character. He profiles as a late-round dynasty rookie selection who could be under-center on Sundays. Without setbacks, Hooker, DLF's rookie QB5, remains a value-on round-three projection in superflex rookie drafts.
