The most famous QB in Dallas Cowboy history, Roger Staubach, didn't enter the NFL until he was 27 due to a 4 year stint in the Navy. He didn't become a full time starter until age 29. I'm not saying Hooker is the 2nd coming of Staubach, but I don't think him entering the league at age 25 is in and of itself a big factor in determining how well he plays in the NFL. In fact, the older and maturity could turn out to be a huge positive in his favor.

Oh, I agree, but the question (at least in my mind) is how it will affect his valuation.

It won't.  Teams really do not consider age as a knock on a prospect of he can play. If you can get great play out of the kid for 5 years why would you think he couldn't give you a few more in their 30s?  The only thing that really matters is if the kid can play the game at a high level in the nfl.

I can see us with Hooker, and the game is on the line and we're behind a score and him putting up a valiant fight...and still losing.

I can see Levis in those situations making a bold move and then saying "Dammit, Will!" and losing.

I can see Young, Stroud, and Richardson in those situations and making something special happen. 

I want one of those three.

This is great. I haven’t had a post on here make me laugh in so long. Thank you.

 

And yea, I could see the same. I don’t want Levis, but if they decide he’s the guy, I’ll be down.

I have guys I want and guys I don't, but I trust these coaches more than my gut or any other opinion. 

I'm trying to prepare myself for them picking a guy and going

Just trying to be ready for anything.

You also have to prepare for the possibility that they simply cannot get in a position to take their 1st choice at qb. It takes 2 to tango you know.
