That's mainly why I was in favor of Reuben Foster (without knowing any of the medical stuff). Defense just needs guys who make the other offense think twice about things. I think Hooker can do that in terms of making QBs think twice about some throws. But yeah -- would love a player who makes you think twice about running that drag route over the middle.

If that's what you're looking for, Cunningham might fit the bill. Here's what Matt Miller had in his 2nd day mock today (going 55th to NYG):

Cunningham would be a great pick, doubt he is there but after yesterday who knows? :cool:

I don't follow college, but have read the knock on this guy is tackling. Not sure if I have the confidence Pags & Co. can effectively teach that.

I was wondering how long it would take before we saw a highlight reel:rolleyes:

Man that Hooker really goes after those deep balls...:p

Not sure if this has been posted yet, bit worth the watch.

I get what you're saying. All im saying is hes a different player than Bethea. Bethea was a combo safety and great tackler and last line of defense type guy.

If Hooker is a true centerfield free safety. So i dont expect the tackling of Bethea...but i do expect more int's and big plays in the passing game.

So...yeah similar production as Bethea but in a different way, then yeah im fine with it.

Mike Wells sucks, but this is a pretty good read about Hooker's transition from Basketball to Football
