And elsid, I do not think Mallet is ready for the NFL. Yes, he has great measurables and can throw the ball 125 yards but his pocket presence is a little low and he struggles at times with accuracy (see LSU game).

Being completely ready and being draft high on potential is different story. I think most teams are going to look at Mallett and see where he needs improvement, but realize that because of his upside he better choice then Clausen or Bradford.

Usually teams draft players like Mallet when they want to groom them behind a capable QB that is either old or on the way out financially. Which means, he'd be a mid-late 1st round pick. JMO.

Mallett has the most physical upside of ALL the QBs in this years draft.
Basically, hes a more raw Joe Flacco.

He's got the size and the cannon. If his head is right, he could pan out to be a solid NFL player. I just would spend a pick in the first 3 rounds to find out

Yes. I would love to see DEN trade back into the 20s and get this kid.
HUGE UPSIDE.
Spend the rest of the draft picks on defense.
The competition that MCD would have at QB would be unreal with Orton, Brandstater and Mallet. Might even have a "Cassell" situation at back up after its all said and done. I would love to see Brandy and Mallett go at it for the starting role. And if it all worked out, Orton is let go simply because DEN has 2solid, big armed, young starters.

That's all well and good but IYAM, QB is one of the last things we need outside of WR and TE.


C, OG, NT, DE, LB, S.

Outside of Bruton and McBath (rookies), those safeties you mentioned are either old or hasn't proven shit.

Our secondary is very old and it'd be a good idea to make it younger.

I agree but in the CB department.

Dawk will be around for another year, and hill probably a couple more. Bailey maybe a couple more if we rework his deal. Goodman a couple more. TY- imo is outta here. That leaves phonz,.....and tony carter? we need more young CBs, they get priority ahead of S.

Locker to stay at Washington for senior year

Associated Press Sports
updated 2:30 p.m. ET, Mon., Dec . 14, 2009
SEATTLE (AP) -Jake Locker says he will not make himself available for the NFL draft and will return to Washington for his senior season.

Locker released a statement through the university on Monday. Locker says he gave the idea of leaving after his junior season careful thought.

But he says he is excited about the team's potential for next season.

Locker is coming off a junior season during which he threw for 2,800 yards in his first year under the watch of coach Steve Sarkisian. Draft pundits have said Locker would be a high first-round pick if he left after his junior season, but Locker wants one more shot at reaching a bowl game after the Huskies went 5-7 this year.

He had surgery in late Oct. and the recovery time is 4-6 months according to ESPN. The combine starts Feb. 24. That's awful close. If he is'nt, he should still has his 'pro day' to show his stuff.
