I think most of us, as titans fans, have the image of Steve McNair as a representative of the Titans. He was tough. He had the will to win. He gave his all. Jake Locker was a risk, but he had all of the things that Steve had. He was the tough player rather than the pretty boy. Remember, no one mentioned Blaine Gabbert before he came out early. He just has the size and arm strength. Locker was talked about. His senior season was not the best, but he was under multiple systems and brought his team from 0-12 to a bowl. He has the ability and the intangibles to pick up where Steve McNair left off.

If Locker is 50% of what Steve McNair was, then I would love this pick to the fullest..

Man, I miss McNair :hmm:

Also remember that Harper has always shared time with a speedy back. He is familiar with the situation that he has being brought into. He plays fast and is a powerful runner

All I know is, I'd rather have Locker than Cam "I'm not gonna amount to anything in the NFL" Newton.

I wonder if the front office read this - http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=ms-silver_rogue_scout_enjoys_label_042511

I like this from the article:

There’s a defensive tackle at USC named Jurrell Casey, and he’s the protypical nose [tackle],” Razzano said. “He’s like another Michael Carter, who we got in the fifth round in San Francisco – one of the all-time steals. I see he’s rated as the ninth-best defensive tackle. If they do a [mock] re-draft in a few years, he’ll be a top-seven pick.”

Razzano showed me some tape of Casey from last year’s game against Cal, and the visual evidence was impressive.

“Watch him split the double-team here,” Razzano said as Casey burst between the Bears’ center and left guard. “Look at that nasty explosiveness. I’m telling you, it’s [like the Pittsburgh Steelers’] Casey Hampton(notes). He has short-area quickness and enough of a motor to satisfy me. You have to realize, defensive linemen don’t all have great work ethic. That’s why they’re big. But [Jurrell Casey’s] a naturally explosive guy, and they’re hard to find.”

Hope he is right on Locker and Casey. If he is this will be a great draft.
