25. Seattle Seahawks: Jake Locker, QB, Washington

Written by NFL Bloggers on 18 April 2011.

If Jake Locker had declared his eligibility for the draft last year, he should have been a very high pick. As it is, his stock plummeted after a disappointing senior season. Still, the tools that had scouts drooling a year ago remain in place and he has the skills to be a franchise quarterback.
 
Quarterback is a position of need for the Hawks as Matt Hasselbeck will be 36 years old and a free agent. His backup, Charlie Whitehurst, hasn't proven he's starting material. While cornerback, o-line and d-line are also needs, the Seahawks can't pass on a quarterback with Locker's ability and upside.
