Better than Adoree. He has been such a bust as a return man. Supdawg 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really good positioning and reads the play well. Has a good feel for zones and depth but seems slow with tight hips in extension. 4 minutes ago, Starkiller said: Better than Adoree. He has been such a bust as a return man. Not hard to do. Hooker seems like he'd be a very solid but not special returner. Would like someone more dynamic eventually but whatever it takes to get Adoree off the return team... titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerryBoats Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 He looks great. I know Pees will want to get him involved right away. Why is he getting knocked for his athleticism? I would never consider him to be slow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctm Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 The big advantage of Hooker is that the team can take Vaccaro off the field in sub packages and put a better coverage player on the field. Hooker is also a film junkie and should be able to contribute early. Number9 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoggyDawg Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 Interesting take from Derrick Mason this morning on 102.5. He believes they signed Amani Hooker to replace Kevin Byard. He said Byard is set to become the highest paid safety in the league and the Titans won't be able to afford it. I hope he's wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I've wondered about too. Some teams just don't pay big for safeties. It's weird but it's real. It will boil down to how much Byard and his agent demand.

Maybe as leverage or an insurance policy. I expect Byard to get a new deal this summer. titanruss, and VanCityTitan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's plausible, but you honestly can't expect a 4th rounder to replace him. If he does, J Rob is a revelation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoggyDawg Posted April 30, 2019 Report Share Posted April 30, 2019 I agree, but this will test if we really are going full blown the "Patriots Way" by trading a highly productive player in lieu of paying him market value. Obviously that wasn't the case with Lewan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
