    No wonder Locker hasn't won since high school. Retires at 26 after a few rough years.

    Yeah, good for him to find someone dumb enough to pick him 8th. If you feel that way, you might as well give Jamarcus Russell and every other QB bust props then too.

    He went to UW.

    HTH
    Maybe b/c tyrone was a coach? If locker had chip kelly as a coach he could have been light years better in college.
    Locker at Oregon w/ Chip woulda been a Natty for the Ducks.
    He would have gotten hurt. If he happened to stay healthy (hypothetical because we know he wouldn't), he would still fire passes over the head of open Oregon receivers.
    But I think even Roadie would have to admit, Jake's Ferndale team would have beaten PLU.

    He made $12.5M with his rookie deal. When you factor in taxes, agent fees, etc., he probably is walking away with over $5M easily.

    I'm sure he'll have some kind of tie-in to the UW one way or another. I don't think he'll be hurting for money. He'll always be viewed fondly by the UW community.

    Seems like locker is pretty well educated and smart kid, so that 5 could have grown greatly over the last 4-5 years.
    You think he's smart because he's white and doesn't get in trouble.
    Did you just channel your dm.c and racebait for no reason?

    I said that about locker b/c he stayed in school, finished his degree, made an incredible amount of connections in the community, still had the ability to play baseball and get paid while doing it, and yes, has never been in trouble on or off the field, hasn't had any substance abuse problems we have been aware of, and overall has been a good person in all the communities he has lived in. It has nothing to do with his color.

    There is something to be said for someone finishing school, having a brain, and not getting into trouble. If you can't understand how being a QB from UW with all the $ boosters who are in this community could be a resource for a player after football I don't know how to help you. He is well spoken enough to do broadcasting, possibly get into coaching or tap any number of resources available without getting his brains beat in.

    Dennis Dixon's knee wants you to know that that was the joke...

    Maybe we don't know all the behind the scenes info like Roaddawg. We haven't seen his inbox. Don't twist.

    Chip might have moved him to safety.
