Some have suggest that Mallett is immobile (which I disagree) and yet you make a comparison of Locker and Marino, saying that Marino had a disappointing senior year at Pittsburgh. All true but what you didn't mention was that Marino was a pure pocket passer and not mobile as Locker is. Dan had great success and set many records. In fact, most of the successful QBs are pocket passers and don't rely that much on escaping the rush.
