I don't like to judge picks anymore. I loved the Vince Young (who is about to be gone) and hated the Chris Johnson pick.
We've won on our last two first round offensive picks (now 3 of the last 4 years) with CJ & Britt. Let's hope Locker turns into something!!
Taking a QB (especially a risk like Locker at 8) is so dangerous. A top 10 QB pick is a bust and it puts your franchise back 4-5 years.
Welcome Locker!! Shut the critics up!!

I think Locker is gonna pan out. His main issue is accuracy, but the but offense UW had around him was shit to begin with so it's not like he ever had time to even stay in the pocket before being surrounded by defenders. I wouldn't expect him to start next year but the kid's got a great attitude and definitely has the ability to be a good QB at some point.
Shallow:
Never expected Gabbert to fall that far, and certainly not behind Locker, though this time last year I thought Locker would be going #1. That Newton pick is a cry for attention. Is there anything he can do that Vince Young couldn't do for the Titans for a lot less money? I'm not so sure. And no doubt he'll be starting right away. I guess the best thing he has is it'll be a defensive based team with Rivera and if the defense dominates or doesn't it'll ease pressure off Cam.

Good to hear some real analysis from someone who has seen him. I'm excited and nervous.
Lunatic:
1st round over.
Biggest surprises (not taken): Bowers & Ayers.
Teams are terrified of Bowers' knee but he's quite the value pick in the 2nd round. I would love for my Titans to snag either Ayers or Austin in the 2nd round. They pick 7th (39th) so it's definitely possible one of those guys will be around. I'll even take Bowers or Paea if those 2 are gone.
