And none of that is to say I don't think Ponder could be a decent enough NFL player, because he very well could, it's just that taking him at 12th provided very little, if any, value to the Minnesota Vikings.

Same here. Being a Seminole fan, I followed him throughout college and think he can be a solid NFL QB if he can escape the injury bug that has bitten him the last 2 years. Having Peterson in the backfield will help ease his development somewhat. But taking him at 12 was puzzling.

And what about the Titans taking Locker with the 8th pick? Can't wait to see here from some of the Titans fans. I don't think they will be very happy.......

I think Locker is going to be fine. How many 6'3" QB's can run 4.5 40's or whatever Locker did at the combine? His UW teams absolutely stunk, and he still held his own for the most part. I think he'll be fine.
