In what turned out to be sad news for UK football fans wishing the best for our former players, former running back Derrick Locke did not get to hear his name called in the draft.
Since Cobb slipped all the way to the 64th pick and went in the second round, I guess it's not that surprising Locke didn't get picked up although its very disappointing most of all for Locke who was receiving some fairly good reviews and turning some heads with his speed.
Locke now will fall into free agent land and hope somebody picks him up at some point. UK football players never seem to get the respect they deserve but I'm sure as they've been doing that Cobb and especially Locke now will show he's better than they think and deserves a shot.
