    You only joined last month.

    I selected Jake Locker at 8 in our mock draft nearly 2 months ago and got abuse for it.. Do I get a cookie? Not that anyhting has been decided yet.

    I still say we should trade down to 10-25 and take a shot at Locker or Mallett. If we cant we need a QB and will take one at 8

    Don't claim you called it until you actually hear his name on draft day.

    I doubt he goes in the top 20.

    We can get Andrew Luck next year. Guarantee it.

    No point in doing this.

    everyone was against a QB this early as soon as the season ended and as soon as Luck decided to stay - now no one was high on any of the QB's including myself making a thread about grabbing a playmaker in the 1st round and waiting on QB in the 2nd round ... but forget all that - i am jumping aboard the "hype train" with Locker as well ... scoot over make some room im jumping aboard the bandwagon ... TITANS PLEASE DRAFT JAKE LOCKER ... "LOCK" IT UP ...

    and p.s. my signature proves i am hoping the titans lock up locker

    He's too inaccurate... not a good pocket passer.

    Lord, I really hope we don't take Locker in the first round. Right when I want to hope this orginzagion has turend a page with player evaluation they may take Locker; an inaccurate QB who is uncomfrotable throwing in the pocket. Haven't we just gone through this over the last five years... inaccurate passer who is not comortable in the pocker? I'm praying that we see the light and pull a short term fix with a vetran free agent and try to fix the QB position long term next draft.

    Next year's QB class isn't going to be any better than this years, in fact, it's probably worse. And the Titans won't have the first pick next year, this team will win some games this year. So don't bank on that.

    If we take a QB at #8 the only guy I think I'd consider besides Gabbert is Mallett. Otherwise I'm about settled the real value is in the 2nd round for a QB. I'd rather wait or possibly trade up a few spots into the 1st from the 2nd to get a QB but truly, taking Locker at #8 is ridiculous. I'm not sure I like the guy at #39.
