3.12 Tennessee Taz Devils - QB Zach Mettenberger

In the real world: The Titans got Mettenberger in Round 6; he slid that far in part because he is still recovering from a torn ACL. He had off-field issues as well, which led him to getting kicked off the Georgia football team in 2010. But he's got very good talent--Ron Jaworski of ESPN once ranked him as the #2 quarterback on his board before reports of a failed drug test knocked him out of Jaws' top five.
In the TUFF world: Finally, the Taz Devils hedge their bets on Jake Locker, who has not lived up to his 2011 first-round pick status. I was prepared to chastise the Taz Devils for passing on Blake Bortles not once, but twice in Round 2, but all they really needed was Mettenberger, Locker's handcuff for this year (and possibly beyond).
