Jake Locker was born June 15, 1988 in Bellingham, Washington. Jake Locker is an American football player. He is the starting quarterback at the University of Washington and a top NFL draft prospect.
With one year of eligibility remaining at Washington, Jake Locker was considered to be a top prospect in the 2010 NFL Draft by many internet mock drafts, with some analysts ranking him in the top three available quarterbacks. On December 14, 2009, ESPN's College Football Live reported that Locker would return for his senior season. Analyst Kirk Herbstreit said that he had confirmed this in a conversation with Locker, and Adam Schefter also confirmed it.
Schefter posted on his Twitter page that an anonymous NFL GM, in speaking with ESPN NFL analyst Chris Mortensen, told Mortensen that Locker is "a bigger, taller, right-handed version of Steve Young."
Prior to Locker's announcement declaring his intention to stay for his senior season, ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay had projected Locker as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. But there was also some controversy and complete disagreement in most circles with McShay's assessment—it had been reported that Locker was advised by the NFL Collegiate Advisory Committee that he would not have received a "1st round grade".
ESPN analyst Mel Kiper, Jr. predicted before and after the 2010 NFL Draft that Jake Locker will be the No. 1 overall pick in 2011.
ESPN anaylyst John Clayton stated in October of Locker's disappointing senior campaign that the right-hander may fall to the 2nd or 3rd round in the 2011 draft due to his inaccuracy and poor play.
