← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Charlie Becker Indiana HT: 6040 WT: 204 YR: JR POS: WR OVR RK 7 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL WR2 Near Elite KEY STRENGTHS Contested-Catch Reliability Vertical Tracking Chain-Moving Ability KEY CONCERNS Press-Release Route Tree Expansion Separation Consistency PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Charlie Becker is a high-end boundary X receiver whose grade is built on size, catch radius, contested-catch ability, and vertical tracking. He wins above the rim, stacks coverage downfield, and gives the quarterback a large strike zone on back-shoulder throws, posts, fades, and intermediate isolation routes. His cleanest NFL fit is in a play-action or vertical passing system that uses him as a perimeter mismatch and red-zone target. The ceiling depends on sharpening his press-release package, expanding the route tree, and proving the routine-play consistency needed for a full WR1 workload. PLAYER COMPARISON: Alec Pierce Becker fits the Alec Pierce comparison because both receivers have the size-speed profile to win vertically and create matchup stress outside the numbers. The comparison works best through the boundary role, downfield tracking, back-shoulder utility, and ability to win above smaller corners. The difference is that Pierce entered the NFL with a more established athletic-testing profile, while Becker still needs a larger route sample and more press-release refinement before the projection is as stable.

Bresee possesses elite instant impact upside, and he is a player who has top ten NFL Draft potential even after missing 2/3 of the 2021 college football season. At 6-5, 300lbs, Bresee possesses elite length. On tape, he has an explosive first step combined with the elite positional strength needed to be a success at the NFL level. He also possesses elite lateral quickness and twitchiness for an interior defender. He can shoot through a gap in a hurry on one play to force a bad throw, and on the next play, he can shoot through a hole to close off a run lane.

Hendon Hooker transferred to Tennessee from Virginia Tech in 2021. He would not enter the 2021 season as the starter, but he would eventually take over without turning back, posting 2900 yards, 31 TD's, and only 3 INT's. In 2022, Hooker is already off to a similar start. Hooker has proven to be an efficient player in an offense that doesn't ask him to do much as a passer beyond his predetermined read. Hooker's development will depend on where he lands in the NFL. If forced to start as a rookie, he will have a lot of ups and downs, so it is advisable that whoever drafts him build the offense around his strengths early. ← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Hendon Hooker Tennessee HT: 6031 WT: 217 YR: RSR POS: QB OVR RK 26 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 5 KEY STRENGTHS Arm Strength Mobility Accuracy KEY CONCERNS Progressions Agility Upright Runner PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Hendon Hooker is a dual-threat quarterback with a strong arm and the ability to make plays out of the structure of the offense.

Kingsley Enagbare is an experienced player who is explosive at the point of attack. A lengthy player, Enagbare converts speed to power at an efficient rate. He shows good technique off the edge.
