Marcus Mariota Watch

[BigEd76]

Florio:

Per a league source, the Eagles are "doing all they can" to make the move from No. 20.

florio is an icehole

If any of these rumors are true that there are teams offering Tenn a blockbuster deal, they'd probably be smart to take it now and seal the deal. It wouldn't shock me if Tampa decided to take it instead.

[hbionic]

We all know how this plays out. Eagles will trade for #2 just before the Bucs draft Mariota.

Hawaii press all over the Cleveland rumor.

I've been off and on the Mariota bandwagon. I'm off. I'd still be excited if they got him but once the compensation flashed on the screen my blood would start boiling. I can 100% see the Browns going for him, falling short. Eagles trading Bradford for him 19. Then giving up #19, 20, next years first, a 3rd somewhere, a 4th somewhere, Cox, Curry, Boykin and Kendricks. Something ridiculous like that.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Good way to describe the way I'm feeling too. I'd like it but once I digested what it actually took to get him I'd get nauseous.

If they get him he better be the real deal or he will get eaten alive.

[QB Eagles]

It's not based on any facts really (quarterback is such a farging crapshoot), but I have a gut feeling Mariota will be a bust, no matter who drafts him. So count me out for all those deals. I'm prepared to eat these words when he wins a Super Bowl for Chip.

Either way I can't wait until this farce is over tonight.

[SD]

Regardless of system I see him performing at a Tannehill level which can win you a sb if the right pieces are in place

@975TheFanatic: Tim McManus "Two 1sts, future 2nd round, Cox, Kendricks, and Vinny Curry is the latest package to be in the deal."



OMG no

[SD]

Dear god no. Take Cox out of the deal and I'm actually fine with it assuming Bradford = the other 1st.

[SunMo]

first of all, that was totally speculation on McManus's part.  he never once said he heard that.  he thinks that is what it will take

2nd of all the only bad part of that deal is Cox.  kendricks is already gone and curry is ok but he's not a 3-4 player.

[smeags]

yeah i'd be ok with that deal if cox wasn't involved. then we better hope MM can play at this level as well ryans' and alonso's legs holding up.

[ice grillin you]

yeah just take the most valuable piece of the entire trade out and then do it

go birds!!!
