PFF graded Shane Hooks well in 2022 while he was at Jackson State
Shane Hooks was one of the most significant additions to Auburn's transfer class as he brings 64 receptions, 748 yards, and ten touchdowns to the Plains.
With these numbers, Hooks was Jackson State's leading receiver a season ago, catching passes from Deion Sanders's son Shedeur.
The six-foot-four wideout graded out well on PFF, receiving a 72.1 receiving grade and a 72 overall offensive grade.
He played 711 snaps on the outside while only playing 11 snaps in the slot.
With the massive frame Hooks possess, you will see him manning the outside for Auburn this season, hopefully connecting for big gains from Payton Thorne or Robby Ashford.
The receiver position was one that Auburn had to sure up with the transfer portal, and Coach Freeze did just that, bringing in four receivers.
Hooks has a real shot at leading Auburn in receiving this season, as it is a well know fact that Coach Freeze loves big wideouts.
Hooks makes a lot of highlight reel plays, so you can definitely expect to see him on Sports Center a time or two this season.
This receiver room has transitioned from a room I was concerned about to one I'm excited about, and Hooks is a big part of that.
