    I absolutely love the pick and I can't wait to see what he can do in two tone blue.
    Let's get him a RT or a WR at #33.

    I think you need a course in statistics and probabilities brah. His hit ratio with one pick will either be 0:1 or 1:1. Therefore a separation distance of a single digit. 3 picks you have 0:3, 1:3, 2:3, 3:3. This gives 2 options of a larger ratio gap then 1 pick. Theres your schooling on ratios.

    As for what you most likely meant. Probability of finding an elite player/quality starter. I believe it would be about equal. This going off of the previous thread about draft "hits" at certain spots. Pick 2 had a hit ratio of 50 percent I think it was with drop off growing considerably as you went down.

    It was a relief when Goodell called Mariota's name at #2. There are no real red flags here. He has QB tools aplenty and is a solid citizen, with a reputation for working hard. Any who believes MM will flop like Young and Locker aren't looking through the lens of history with any sort of clarity. Both of those guys had red flags all around them, especially VY.

    There's a real strong chance our need has finally been met.

    Very good article. Pretty much what I figured was the case. Whiz and Co. have to roll the dice now because if Mett had crashed and burned this season they'd have been looking for jobs.

    Might as well go all in on a top QB prospect.
