So much road and so few places, so much friendliness and so little intimacy, so much flavour and so little taste.

Malik Hooker had surgery Tuesday on a torn labrum and a hernia that he played through late this season. He will miss the Combine.

Pretty impressive Hooker played through those injuries against Michigan and Clemson and still looked like a top 10 player.
So the question is: what's the market look like for the healthy version of a player who looked like a top-10 guy when he was injured?

He'd be so perfect for us, Christ I hope we find a way to make this work.
Now how do we trade down and get him and Mahomes without using the first we get...

Career starter FSs are much harder to find than career starter HBs in 2017, so I don't think the example is diminished any.

I've been on board with trading down from the jump. Plus, with Jonathan Allen more valuable to us now, teams could be more willing to trade up.

Oh crap! I just picked Hooker at the number 3 spot in the mock your own thread.
"We don’t know exactly what we’re doing” -- John Fox
What the hell have you guys been smoking? If he's reportedly the next Ed Reed, a minor injury that would only keep him out a couple months is fucking nothing. No way he falls to the 2nd round. He's a top 10 pick and is completely at play at 3.
