    You're right I misused the word hit-ratio. However I don't think the #2 pick has a 50% hit ratio when you look at QB compared to picking any other position at will (if you understand what I mean).

    This is what Mariota will look like in the NFL.... but take away the 30088 screen passes because you can't do that every snap in the NFL.

    You excited?... This team is as good as sold.

    lol.... I bet there are a lot of irrational, butthurt Philly fans cursing Andy Reid's name today.

    And yeah, like I've been saying all long.... you just can't pass up on a potential franchise QB at #2 when your QB position and offense as a whole was such a mess last year. I also think, like it or not, this buys Whisenhunt (and probably Webster) another two years minimum. And last but certainly not least this fanbase has become as pitiful and apathetic as its ever been and a 1st round QB puts butts in the seats, plain and simple.

    It was really the only sensible move from a FO standpoint (barring a ridiculously one-sided trade offer of course).

    God I'm just happy I don't have to look at locker on the sidelines on crutches to remind me of the past 4 years of misery.

    This.

    MM has no real red flags on or off the field. His production was there in college. Good comp %, good decision making, winner, leader, football smarts, hardworker. By all accounts he is a great person off the field too, and won't be making headlines for partying, posting something dumb on twitter, etc.

    Looking back at Locker and VY, those guys were full of red flags. Locker was not a proven winner, injury prone, bad accuracy, ect. VY was immature, dumb, and had that horrible throwing motion.

    The only negative that Mariota has are the 'made up' negatives. That he won't be able to transition to the NFL because of the system he ran in college ... but no one really knows if this is the case or not, its just speculation.

    By far the best 1st rd QB we have taken since Mac9.

    point is Jake and VY had real, tangible flaws coming out of college that were not debatable. You have to reach to find flaws with MM.

    Maybe MM can bring the fanbase together as well. We have been so divided on VY and Locker and even Mett to lesser extent ... If MM can come in and play well, and doesn't bring embarrassment to the team off the field, then maybe TItans nation can be 1 big happy family again.
