PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — Choo, choo! The Marcus Mariota to Philadelphia train keeps on rolling.

According to an NFL source via Kristen Dyer of Metro New York, if Mariota makes it to No. 6 in the draft, he will become a Philadelphia Eagle.

"The source said with "100 percent certainty" that if Mariota is available at No. 6 it will be the Eagles, and not the Jets, who will be picking at that spot," the report states.

"The source said that the Jets aren't in the mood to pick Mariota with their sixth pick and that if the Oregon quarterback is available," according to the Metro report, "The 'Jets will be shipping that pick away.'"

Per the source, "He's a great fit for their offense. This could be a case where the Jets could cash in and would be willing to do so. Not quite Ricky Williams level but we're talking multiple picks and perhaps a player."

Or they're trying to drive up the price for trading out of that spot. Whatever. What's talked about now isn't the reality of how things will shake out. This is flirting.

Bovada has 4/1 odds that Mariota is our week 1 starter.  1/7 against

"Let's dispel that right now," Kelly said. "I think that stuff's crazy. You guys have been going with that stuff all along. I think Marcus is the best quarterback in the draft. We will never mortgage our future to go all the way up to get somebody like that because we have too many holes to take care of."

i hope every moron eagle fan and pos media member who so stupidly perpetuated this myth for the last farging six months dies...and that includes everyone here

cause ignorance annoys me

[PhillyPhreak54]

But it isn't ignorant to think that;

1. a trade up from 20 is possible. You can say "but not for a franchise QB" but that doesn't ring true. I mentioned the Julio Jones trade and they went from 27 to 6. So what if this is a QB? When you look at the QB needy teams I can make a point for everyone beside TB & TEN in the top 10 not needing a rookie QB. I can even make a case that TEN would not go the QB route and stick with Mettenberger.

2. the guy who coached and recruited and loves Mariota wouldn't try to finagle a package to go get his guy
