    I'm beyond excited!!

    Clemmings or Fisher make a ton of sense at 33, but damn I'm tempted to grab a WR.. Need to give your young QB a target.

    if RT is a problem, Mariota will just run away from it! LOL

    I see a lot of Wilson and a little bit of Kaep in Mariota. I think he will be a good player for us. I'm drinking the cool-laid

    Really? If he wasn't playing behind Jake but was playing behind Brady would you feel bad? By being here he had opportunity to show his talent, and I bet if he had managed at least one win we might be having a different draft. He was paid well, and he had his chances. As GoT said he needs to be a pro and wait for an opportunity.

    One guy is good and one guy is not good.

    I'm confident in saying Mariota will be one of those two things.

    Pretty excited for Mariota, it's hard not to be. Heisman winner in Nashville, our quarterback questionmark is finally gone. I'm worried about Whiz being able to change the offense to suit him, I think maybe the owners pushed this onto him.

    But again, how can I not be pumped?

    Pretty much any other selection. It's hard for me to see Mary as that superior to mett next year considering all other factors (coaching, teammates, etc). Where lw, fowler, cooper, white, flowers, or even better Shelton + bud Dupree would clearly make us better at a starting position.

    Will we take a qb next year early even if Mary isn't elite? I doubt it. So now we've reduced our chance (short term) in upgrading qb because we are committed to Mary.

    And my thought is this is a terrible landing spot for him with worst possible head coach.

    Doesn't help that our front office had to shake 29 hands like jackasses after making the obvious selection. Looked like a "oh crap guess we all die by this so shake on it" or I dunno but I'm so much more disgusted than I thought I would be over Mary as our next 4 year qb project

    only thing the owners would push KW into would be a field banging pots together to scare the snipes towards them

    Mary huh? LOL. Lighten up dude, it's just a game. Those that made the pick have the most to lose in this. Good pick or not, they've spent the time with him, evaluated him, shared knowledge with him, broke bread with him and have a much better sense of his drive and football IQ than you or I do....AND THEY KNOW THE SAME THINGS ABOUT METT. There must be a reason Mariota is the day one starter without even meeting his teammates yet. There must be a reason Mett wants a trade without even competing. There must be a reason these guys who will all have to uproot their families if this doesn't work think this kid could be the answer. Lighten up, get some popcorn and watch the movie.
