KD in CA Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 He will universally be viewed as a top 15 pick. It's not a reach in any way. That's good to know. I just get very nervous about those eye popping stats that people get hung up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Good news is we should definitely be able to get one of them (Hooker or Adams) Edited January 2, 2017 by kdiggz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I think that when all is said and done these guys may grade out as high as any safety since Sean Taylor. Does that guarantee that they'll be great, no but I'll take my chances with talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I am personally not in favor of drafting one-season wonders. Let a guy prove he can bring it for several years before you put a first on them. Amen - especially high in the first round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 There is an interesting discussion on Matt Miller's twitter right now of Adams vs. Hooker. I think that the Bills should have a shot at 1 of them but probably not both. It's possible that both are off the board. These guys are ELITE prospects, they just so happen to play a position of dire need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could step right in day 1Yeah, he's a big kid with a ton of production. He's kind of "idiot proof" as a prospect. He doesn't have Hooker's ceiling but he has fewer question marks. He's kind of like Jake Mathews as a prospect a few years ago. You plug him in day one and he starts for years. He has a high ceiling and a high floor. I really like guys like that in the top 10. Give me a "bust proof" guy, that could be a multi-time Pro Bowler. That's what Adams is to me.Not with the 10th pick!He is on the Bears radar at 3...

KDIGGZ Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) If the DC is Bradley I might expect him to lean towards Adams. Big safety that can cover tight ends (Gronk and Bennett) and deliver hits much like Kam Chancellor. Edit - actually it looks like that could be either guy really. Hooker is 6'2". Just needs to bulk up a bit maybe. He's young still, he certainly can do so Edited January 2, 2017 by kdiggz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I probably prefer Adams. "Adams" sounds American and downright presidential. Hooker is a guy you can find on the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATeam Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Looking good to get an impact player at a position of need at 10! Sign me up for Hooker, Adams, Williams or Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 At worst it deepens the draft and hurts the Blankeyes. Win-Win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) I am personally not in favor of drafting one-season wonders. Let a guy prove he can bring it for several years before you put a first on them. coaching miscalculation IMO that he wasn't playing last year ahead of Tyvis but incredibly common for elite talent to not see the field until second year after RS if there is an experienced captain ahead of them. Happens all the time. He could play two more years here, but getting him this young is the benefit like it was with Bosa and Zeke, both only 20 when drafted. In fact Tyvis left early too. Had he returned, Captain Hook might still be in waiting. Edited January 2, 2017 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
