2010 (potential +.500 competition)

Nebraska - 71 passing yards, 2 TDs, 2 INTs, 20% competition%

USC - 310 passing yards, 1 TD, 60% completion% (he also rushed for 111 rushing yards)

 

I know he had a bad game vs. Nebraska, but that one game does not erase an overly strong resume. The fact of the matter is, he's improved every season in college. He will have more starts under his belt than Andrew Luck and Ryan Mallett, if they declare early.

 

I maybe alone on this one, but I believe he's the Bills best option out of the Luck-Locker-Mallett crop at the moment.

Locker missed some throws last night he needs to make at the next level. He also had about 5 drops from his receivers and still went 24-39 for 313 against 18th ranked USC.

 

In all draft threads this early in the season it needs to be mentioned that it's very early in the process. This is his second season, as the OP noted in a pro-style offense. That said, if Sarkisian keeps running him on short yardage situations he's going to get Locker killed.
