Jetlife33 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 6) - Marcus Mariota - New York Jets (4-12) COLLEGE: Oregon Class: Jr HT: 6-4 WT: 211 POS: QB Analysis: Mariota could slide even further than this on draft day, but I think this pick makes sense for the Jets given their need at QB and the presence of Chan Gailey at offensive coordinator. Gailey can adapt his scheme to any QB and has a history with spread-formation offenses, so he's capable of providing Mariota with a smooth transition to the NFL from his up-tempo spread system at Oregon. Mariota has rare athleticism for the QB position (including prototypical size) and outstanding intangibles, but his one area of concern -- consistently being able to win from the pocket -- is the most important trait you need to succeed at the NFL level. So how a team caters its approach to him and develops him as an accurate passer from the pocket will be critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetlife33 Posted February 5, 2015 Author Share Posted February 5, 2015 1) - Jameis Winston - Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-14) COLLEGE: Florida State Class: Soph HT: 6-4 WT: 235 POS: QB Analysis: The Bucs don't currently have a franchise quarterback on their roster, and while both of the top two QB prospects in this year's class carry with them significant risks (along with considerable talent and upside), it could be tough for them to pass on both. If you factor in only on-field performance, Winston should be the No. 1 choice. He beats opponents from the pocket with very good accuracy, arm strength and anticipation, and his on-field intangibles and leadership are positives as well. The concerns with Winston obviously have to do with his off-field behavior, and any team that drafts him is going to have to trust him enough from a character and psychological standpoint to make him the face of its franchise. That's a big risk, but NFL teams know that they can't win consistently without good quarterback play. And the Bucs could decide that Marcus Mariota's need to transition from Oregon's up-tempo spread offense to the NFL represents an even greater risk -- albeit in a very different way.

FTL Jet Fan Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 There is no way Mariota falls to 6 so tired of seeing that. Pat Kirwan at CBS sports has up taking Fowler at 6 and the QB's going 1 and 2 Mariota being # 1. That's a more realistic Mock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Some people are really buying into the whole Mettenberger thing. I don't see it. I agree with you. I think the issue is that both of these QBs have red flags, but very different red flags. I'm sure there are teams who love one guy and hate the other. It's possible Tennessee would jump at one of them, but wouldn't touch the other with a ten foot pole. It's still so early in the process, and the big story is these two guys. They are going to be dissected over the next four months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTL Jet Fan Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Mariota seems to be already free falling.

Ghost Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I am not a big fan of Mariota at all. I do not think he will be successful in the NFL. If he is there at 6, definitely be prepared to trade back and acquire multiple picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I think Winston would be the more interesting debate at 6. I wonder how much Bowles' experience with The Honey Badger would Impact his desire to give another anti-authority nut job a shot. Conversely, I wonder if Maccagnan--after getting an up-close look at the Clowney debacle--would shy away from giving a troubled player a shot.

bman Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I'd pass on Mariota. He's got David Klinger, Andre Ware, and Joey Harrington written all over him. If's he there trade out. Get the best available WR later in rd 1 and trade for Mike Glennon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
