Is locker going in the first or second?

Apparently no one can agree on any one QB, and.... everyone thinks the other QB's are not 1st round talent. So basically none are good enough for the 1st round and should any be around in the 2nd or beyond we should snap them up cause that's where we get our weight in gold out of them. Our problem is there are 9 teams in front of us picking in the 1st round and about half could use a QB if not all based on age of the current QB's on their respective teams (ie; Dallas).

I just wonder if when the first team picks a QB if the other teams will panick and start drafting QB's also. I'm guessing if a HC has their sights set on any one QB and he gets taken prior to their pick teams might look elsewhere with their pick, but I can see most teams having a few QB's on their list... a #1 if available, a #2 as a consolation prize, and a #3 for those who drastically need a QB.

Not everyone:

I like most of this years crop of QBs.
I like QBs in general: Newton, Locker and Gabbert, Stanzi, Kaepernick, Dalton, Tyrod, Jerrod Johnson.
I think that Locker is the best in the group though.

I agree w/ Mayock that there are 4 1st round talent QBs.

I think all the teams rank the QBs they like and consider draftable at a certain range in the draft.
I don't think team operate like fan's and become married to one prospect unless they pick top 5 and know they'll have 1st choice.
I think the interview process at the combine, the personal visits and private workouts will go a long way to ultimately decided the draft order.
Nothing that happens would surprise me though I could see 1 or 2 QBs being taken in the 1st round or maybe all 4 QBs get taken in 1st round.
You never know.

BTW-I think you're vastly over representing the QBs performances good and bad and over valuing the importance of the SB in general.
