Former NFL general manager projects Hendon Hooker as top-five pick

The 2023 NFL draft will take place April 27-29 in the plaza outside of Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri.

Round 1 of the 2023 NFL draft will take place April 27 (8 p.m. EDT), rounds 2-3 will be held April 28 (7 p.m. EDT), and rounds 4-7 are slated for April 29 (noon EDT).

Ahead of the 2023 NFL draft, Tennessee held its annual pro day Thursday at Anderson Training Center.

Former Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker did not participate in on-field drills during pro day as he continues to recover from injury. He suffered a season-ending torn ACL in his left knee at South Carolina on Nov. 19, 2022.

Hooker met with NFL teams Thursday on pro day. All 32 NFL teams were present for Tennessee’s pro day.

Ahead of the 2023 NFL draft, former New York Jets’ general manager Mike Tannenbaum released a mock draft on ESPN. Hooker and former Vols Jalin Hyatt and Darnell Wright are projected in the first round. Tannenbaum’s first-round mock draft is listed below.
