I would be all in on Mariota as the new face of the franchise.
New GM, New HC, so why not a new QB via the draft? Geno stinks of the Rex/Idzik era, time for a clean slate across the board.

Not quite seeing the Hamstring pull from jumping up and down over the opportunity to play in philly part of this. He would have answered in a similar way if you put any of 32 teams in that question. People in Philly are clueless like the Boston media is clueless

Skins (RG3/Cousins), Raiders (Carr) and Jags (Bortles/Henne) aren't taking a QB - only the Bucs or Titans are likely to take one before us. Unless they both go QB-QB either Winston or Mariota is very likely to fall to us for better or worse...which one is a toss-up at this point. You do know other teams can trade up to those spots correct? Trading for a top 2 pick is extremely costly, as is trading into the top 5. It's still a lot to get to where we're at but when 3-5 don't have a pressing need at QB there's not as much of a rush for teams to sweep in at such a high price. Still absolutely possible a team trades up into the top 5, just looking at it economically.

What's all this nonsense about trading the pick and Mariota being available at 6? If he knocks it out of the park at the combine, the Titans will just use their pick on a QB.
Their QB is Zach Mettenberger, not Dan Marino. It's like saying the Bucs won't draft Winston because they have Mike Glennon.

If that happens, then Petty will fall to the 2nd since no team will justify taking him with a first round pick. Assuming he's available by then, which he should, Petty would be a good value pick at #2.

Titans have bonerpants for Mettenberger enough to pass on him? I'm not buying it. Whether we take him or not, I really hope he's still on the board when we're up, should make for some interesting draft drama.

Interviews are nothing to me. Bracobama gives great speeches too. While he has the gift of an orator, him giving great speeches is debatable...lol

Their QB is Zach Mettenberger, not Dan Marino. It's like saying the Bucs won't draft Winston because they have Mike Glennon. i know where you are coming from. however, if mariota is there at 6 the jets really need to take him. first off the kid has some exceptional talent. he is showing it at the combine. secondly , even if he hasn't lined at center he can be taught or schemes drawn up for more one read plays. brady has made a pretty nice living with one read plays (you don't think those quick slants to edelman or gronkowski are the result of multiple reads). if picked mariota will be a real challenge to geno. geno will need to bring whatever his A game is every game. and in 2 seasons when geno is in his walk year he will have lost some bargaining power. in the meantime mariota will be sitting and learning. and it's probably a better scenario than bringing in vet for long term (unless it's cutler). the bottom line is after this season mariota will be taking over because geno hasn't shown he will do anything but fail.

Mariota would have to steal a case of crab legs, drug about 30 young ladies for sex, murder someone, and later be found passed out in a car having vomited on himself, with the murder weapon and a box of hollow points not to be drafted as either the first or second pick in the draft.
