    I'm sorry, I still think it is Vince.

    Speaking with fans of other teams, I don't get embarassed talking about Locker.

    I liked Locker too but always knew his ceiling was low. And you had to really be careful what kind of offense you were going to run with him.

    The injuries really killed Locker. Instead of spending the offseasons working to get better he spent the offseasons rehabbing. Then Munch played him in that game, when he should not have, and he got that foot injury. That sealed his fate.

    QBs get a bump because of the importance of the position, but Andre Woolfolk was easily the worst player we drafted in the first round.

    I think they may see that one as more forgivable based on the fact it was late in the first.

    We could argue that Pacman was the dumbest move, at 6, given the character concerns.

    Warmack was a worse Guard than Locker was a QB.

    At least Locker had a good game here and there, Warmack always sucks

    Picked him over Nnamdi Asomugha, Charles Tillman, and Rashean Mathis.
    Picked him over Aaron Rodgers.

    Picked Locker over just about everyone in that first round. 2011 was the year when if you didn't pick a QB you probably got a productive player. Go Titans....

    Vince was the most disappointing, but at least he had a great season. Jake had a great haircut.
