Who knew Locker was that fast?

[BOTSLAYER]

I have not seen him play...I think at all until today but damn the kids got wheels.

 

[SonnyCID]

I did.

He was running for his life every week at UW.

 

[LucklessPadresFan]

The Chargers certainly did not know how fast he was.

Running TD just now

He is a good athlete. One of the knocks on him in college was taking too many big hits because he tried to make a lot happen with his legs.

He was an option qb starting at UW and almost rushed for 1000 yards his freshman year. Athleticism is not an issue with him because he's built like a tank on top of it. He just needs to throw a more accurate ball and it's shit or get off the pot time for him right now.

That was when Willingham was coaching. Sark was developing him as a pocket passer and the issue was he took too many shots because the line was awful as far as pass protection went.

He still took some big hits when he tucked the ball under Sarkision too. If my memory serves me right he almost got knocked out of one of his bowl games because he wasn't trying to protect himself going for a first down.

 

[Stomp]

Draft experts were comparing him to Steve Young at one point and saying he would go number 1 overall then he decided to stay in school one more year and the hype faded.

 

[TexasMan]

He's always been a good runner. Just not a good thrower.

TM, I really wish you could pick an obnoxious avatar. Just once.



And that's what's surprising. Did you see some of the passes he made today? We're talking borderline legitimate, if not mildly impressive.

Locker's sprint times at the Combine were one of the fastest ever for a QB. Guy is definitely dual threat.
