Marcus Mariota Watch

[AshishPatel81]

If trading up were to be an inevitability, I'd rather it be for Winston. I think he has better tools, greater potential. Even in this system. Neither of these guys are Andrew Luck or even close to it, but I'd rather get Winston.

I think Mariota will be solid in the right system, but I don't think he'll ever be in the elite class. Definitely take him at 20, but trading up for him is and will always be insane.

to get to 1, sure. giving up what is essentially 5-6 starters for him is asinine.

but if he for whatever reason falls to the teens, which he wont, then its not really crazy.

the problem will be the expectations for MM and chip will be crazy high and one is a coach without a playoff win and the other is a qb who has never taken an nfl snap. but theyll HAVE to put up 70.

[SD]

Why are high expectations for chip/mm a problem? They should be sky high. Chip wanted the power and he got it. If in his wisdom he thinks mm is the answer then he needs to be held accountable for selecting him if doesn't work.

i wouldnt trade multi picks for either guy.

Chip doesn't talk to anybody with the media when he doesn't have to.  He's said it before that any "rumors" that come out aren't from him so the reporters shouldn't pay attention to them.  So now all the sudden Mark farging Eckel gets an insight into Chip's draft strategy

Mosher was hyping this guy on philly sports talk tonight. He played at Oregon for a season before getting beat out by Mariota

Will The Dirty Thirty being going to Chicago (could they even afford to make the trip or find their way?) to boo any pick not named Mariota?

[MDS]

if they do im sure whoever the pick is wont be such a baby back bitch about it like the last guy

[PhillyPhreak54]

Pretty sure anyone getting booed off a stage wouldn't be happy about it.

But lets rehash the McNabb hate some more.

its one thing to be mad about it, its another to hold on to it for 20 years. pat burrell was booed a ton....he seems cool with everyone now. so does mike schmidt. AI had his ups and downs with the fans. but poor donny. poor donny. what a victim.

but hey you're the one that brought that loser up.

[SD]

He can forgive he just can't forget
