I know many are off the Jake Locker bandwagon, but he is playing right now on ESPN if you want it. He is coming off a rib injury so he is banged up, but it is his last game at Home, so he will probably look to bring his best.
Fact is, I have been leading the charge for Luck this year, but it is looking more and more like we will not have a shot at getting him.....and now, not because he won't come out or doesn't want to come to Buffalo, but because the Bills are too good a team (I know, right?) to get the first pick in the draft. I see the Bills winning a couple more games and will probably be picking in the Top 5, but they really don't have a shot at #1. The Panthers got that locked up as far as I'm concerned. They are awful. The Bills, while bad, are competing and will win more games and just won't have a shot at Luck unless they trade. And that isn't going to happen.
Anyway, with that said, we will be looking at Mallett or Locker later in the Draft (not that much later if they decide to go that way). I still think Locker is a good QB, but he may be the toughest QB in the draft to evaluate because of the lack of talent around him. I have watched a lot of his games the last couple years and he has a lot of drops from his WRs. So, he is really tough to evaluate in may ways. I will be looking to see what he can do at the Senior Bowl and when he gets into a position to work with better players. I think he has natural talent, jut tough to evaluate how much. But he may be an option late in Round 1 or early in Round 2 if the Bills decide to go that way.
So, check him out if you want to tonight. Washington has to win their last 3 games to get to a Bowl, so they will need to play their best and Locker will need to be a big part of that. ESPN....on now!
