Well, Locker didn't exactly look like Steve Young when Stanford made Washington look like a AA team this year.

I believe he got taken out of the game cus his rib injury got worse. He had no protection at all.

Or, recievers.

I think the bowl game against Nebraska proves how bad and soft his receivers are. They were getting pushed around and basically bullied all game. His #1 receiver had over 8 drops this season!!

Like I continue to say, I know Locker isn't a popular choice around here, but I still feel like he can become a very good QB in the NFL with coaching from Harbaugh.

100% agree. Harbaugh can work with Jake and make him our future WCO quarterback.

Not to mention, Nebraska had the 5th best passing defense in the country last year, and was 11th in total defense. The blackshirts were nasty in '10.

Watching how physical Amukamara and Dennard were in that game was certainly a pleasure. Something the Niners desperately need

Yup, I've been in the Locker bandwagon since last season, and I'll continue to stick around
I'd take Locker. The bad thing about it is, we would probably have to draft him at #7 if we wanted him or we could maybe trade down a few spots and get him. I don't see him lasting till our pick in the 2nd round with so many QB starved teams.

Absolutely. If Josh Freeman can get selected in the 1st round based on potential, so could Locker.
Still being inaccurate, for all those who hated Alex.....you would not be happy with Jake.

I think he would be a huge stretch at #7. Accuracy is so critical and I just dont see how it makes sense to reach for Locker at this point.

The question at #7 is can you get away with taking him there and sitting him a year. People expect top 10 picks to be starting right away. But if we get a new salary structure for the draft might make it easier to sit the player a year.

Per Rob Rang on twitter:

"No denying Locker's inconsistent accuracy, but I've had scouts look at me like I was crazy when I asked if he'd slip out of 1st. #upside"
