STORY: Hockenson, Hooker & Stanley among Hawkeye underclassmen seeking NFL Feedback

Hooker leaving early has scared me since September.

And it still does. How can he not test the waters? The NFL is looking for every piece of defensive talent they can find to combat the onslaught of offense in the league.

I mean coaches. The league can't have enough offense. It attracts viewers and generates ratings.
 
Stanley lol. I hope he does leave though. My God the NFL must be hard up for quarterbacks.
 
All three would do better and probably up their stock with another year.
Tj is probably the closest, but will be the #1 te on the team if he comes back.
The entire team both o and d should be better next year and that's a good time for all 3 to really shine.

I'm not saying if you are guaranteed first round, you don't go, but there are no guarantees, and sliding down quite a ways isn't only possible, in most times it's likely.
They all have an excellent surrounding cast and schedule next year to really up their stock and collect the benefits from it.
 
I'm not sure Hooker will have the measurables to up his draft stock. So, I expect him to return.
I think Hockenson is a late 2nd to 3rd round pick. I know he says money has no baring on his decision but if he ends up with CTE and can't live a normal life at the age of 45....he'll wish he'd made a money based decision.
I'm no QB guru guy and I never played the position but I can't see Stanley ever starting an NFL regular season game. I hope I'm wrong.
 
I will wait for the feedback from the advisory board before deciding whether I want to represent them as their agent or not. I have high standards.
 
For a developmental program it sure throws a monkey wrench into things when key players are leaving after 3 yrs. It'd be pretty nice if everyone besides Fant were to come back. That'd give us a chance at doing some big things next yr. But if we were to lose Stanley, TJ and Hooker or any combination of 2 out of those 3 even that'll hurt. Regardless of what the Stanley haters seem to think. I feel he'd have a big senior year next yr assuming TJ were to come back along with the other receivers we'll have.

My gut tells me TJ is going to go pro though and fingers crossed that's it for the attrition...

Hell I forgot about Jackson. He's played pretty well and losing our LT would no doubt hurt too so I sure hope he comes back
