re: Mariota: "eating it up pretty quickly"

Nah. Mariota is good & I'll don't think he'll flop like many do, but he'll have to wait until he's traded.

After watching Mariota in his 2 playoff games, I came away unimpressed. I was a little concerned with how simple Oregon's was and that almost all of the big plays were due to a break in the defense.

With that said he seems very sharp and a hard worker. I think he has shown that he can be accurate and he will just take some time to acclimate to passing out of the pocket primarily. His mobility is a big plus, and I think he learn how to not get hit similar to Russel Wilson. I think he'll beat out Mett based on his tools and his rookie year may have a sharp learning curve. I think by the end of year one and into year two he will start to make larger jumps. I'm excited about he will be bringing to the franchise for hopefully many years.
