How good is Marcus Mariota going to look in Black and Gold?

Calling my shot that, barring a selection of Mariota by Tennessee at #2, the Saints will pull off the blockbuster trade with the Oakland Raiders.

Saints will send #13, #31 and a 4th (2016) for the #4 pick and a 6th rounder.

Saints then select the heir apparent with Mariota.

As we all know, you are nothing in this league without a franchise QB.

Many people have questions about MM's ability to transition to the NFL game, but New Orleans provides him a quality opportunity: smaller market, HOF starter to learn from, top quality head coach, and ability to ease his way into knowledge of the pro game before taking over the reigns.

I know that the Saints still have plenty of deficiencies to address in the draft and the offseason, but the Saints have to start preparing for a life after Drew. I think that Marcus has the ability and fortitude to be that player.

I'd assume the fetal position and cry.

Too bad we do not have a 4th to complete that trade...

Loomis wouldnt make it past the draft if that happened.

negative chance it happens because it makes zero sense.

So you acknowledge that there are deficiencies; yet you want to overlook those to draft the "heir" to the thrown who won't see the field for 3+ years. Are you overlooking the fact that when you draft a QB that high, there is external pressure to play that QB now. plus, if you don't address those needs, the player won't have a chance to learn behind Brees bc he'll be thrown in the mix right away after Brees gets knocked all over the field.
