Blaine Gabbert
Delivers the ball suddenly to his receivers. No delay. Athletic and mobile. Stands tall in the pocket. Plays in a spread ball control passing attack.
Jake Locker
Outstanding athletic ability and a quick release.
May be best in a play action offense
Christian Ponder
Has had durability problems, but like Locker may be featured in a play action offense. A good ball control passer who is mobile enough to buy time with his feet. Tough and
smart.

If we can't trade down from 10, then I'm all for trading back into the 1st to get Locker. I would hope that we will not be in position the next few drafts to get a blue-chip prospect.
