Poll: Marcus Mariota Sweepstakes, who will draft him?

exhilo · Dec 16, 2014

Really interested to see which team will make dramatic moves to get MM. I sure would hate to see him end up with the Jets.

Jets blew that by winning against Tennessee.

Ain't no way Mariota makes it past the Bucs, Titans or Skins.......and possibly the Raiders.

Is he a good enough QB for a top 10 team to try and trade into the #1 or #2 spot? I don't think so. As it stands now I think he goes to the Bucs or Titans.

I didn't include the Raiders because of Carr, but you never know.

Need to know the draft order before making a prediction.

Ultimately, I think he goes #1 overall. Whoever that is should demand at least a RG3 amount of picks to get him or just take him and be happy about the pick.

Philly trades up.

I can't imagine anyone making the RG3 mistake again. Even if Mariota ends up being an awesome pro, the risk is just too high and the memory far too recent.

Right now Tampa and Tennessee have the first 2 picks. He'll go one of those 2 places unless they both finish lower in the draft order than that.

joeseahawks · Dec 25, 2014

Tampa has no choice but to take MM, if they pick first.
Titans have something invested in the other guy they drafted last year. Not sure they will draft another QB.

This is the scenario i'm hoping for but I think its virtually impossible. We saw how much it took the Redskins to trade from i believe #5 to #2 for RG3. The Eagles would be needing to move from 20ish, likely to #1. I just dont think its possible.

I think it will be Tampa and I think that will be a pretty good spot for him. They have pretty good wr's and rb's. Will need to get him some o'line help.

The Eagles have Nick Foles too. Depending on how the trading partner values Foles, he could be a big piece of compensation. I know I'm no expert, but if I were Chip, I'd offer Foles and two firsts. Probably need more, but I'd be slightly shocked if Philly didn't do everything they could to make it happen. Praying it doesn't.

Tennessee. Tampa takes Winston #1, Mariotta goes #2.

I know they just used a second round pick on Mettenberger, but I assume Wisenhunt (or whoever makes their picks) is smart enough to not pass on a prospect like Mariota because of Mettenberger.

I think it'll be the Bucs or Titans. Titans only spent a 6th, not a 2nd, on Mettenberger so aren't giving up on much.

I feel stupid now. I'm usually really good at remembering these things. No idea why it was in my head that Mettenberger was a 2nd rounder.

And that is another good question...which team is going to waste a pick on Jameis Winston? With Tampa's history, I could see them doing that. I could also see Dan Snyder doing something stupid and going after Winston.

Winston is a local boy for Tampa and will put people in seats

I think you're right, now.

FSU is almost 300 miles from Tampa....Gainesville (U Florida) is less than half that distance and represents much more of a local team for the Tampa area.

We're not talking Tebow who likely would have sold tickets in Tampa or Jacksonville. Winston would only put people in seats if he leads them to wins.

Now that Chip Kelly has full control of player personnel, I can see him making major moves to get Mariota.
