    I feel like this draft class is very weak; #1 to the Bucs. I don't see how the Bucs can pass on him.
    But then again, Glennon is a capable QB that could use another year or two in the league with more talent around him.

    Tennessee at #2 could get him, because I doubt they want to pay Locker a top10 QB salary.
    Jets could go after him; but are they done with Geno Smith?

    After looking at everything, my bet is that Tennessee will get him, unless Tampa Bay has given up on Glennon for no good reason.

    Mariota is a superior QB to Winston in every way. Far better runner, far better passer. Why in the world anyone would make such a statement is beyond me.

    Winston has this reputation of being mobile, for some reason. You guys realize he only had, like 65 yards rushing this past season, right?

    In the college ranks I see your point. But I believe Winston is more of a pocket passer and less of a system QB. However, like I said his off the field problems are a grave concern. That may be enough for Mariota to be picked ahead of him, and succeed at a higher level on the next level.

    What exactly are you basing that on? The fact that only 1 FBS QB had more interceptions this year than him? If you get picked off 18 times in a single season in college, you'll get picked off about 30 times in the NFL.

    He was a monster last year, no doubt. Would've been top-5 if he was in the draft. But this year really brought him down to earth.

    Yeah Winston tossed lot of picks this year, while Mariota threw almost none. Just do not think Oregon's O system Translates well into the NFL for a QB. WE shall soon find out who has the better NFL career.

    See, I don't think Mariota is just a system quarterback. I don't care what the system is, when your college career TD-to-INT ratio is 8-to-1, that's saying something. If you include the ones he ran for, we're literally talking a 10-to-1 TD/INT ratio. Even Winston's Heisman season was 4-to-1.
