Makes sense. Never bought it from the jump. He hasn't called a play from the huddle since high school. Do you really think Jay wants to mortgage his coaching life on that?

Nope. Never bought into the theory of us taking Mariota. He doesn't fit the profile of a gruden QB and he has too many open questions if he can be molded to become one. This was Clayton making a splash to get clicks on his writings. Pure speculation to win the news report of the week. If you notice, not one of the revised mock drafts have us taking Mariota eventhough in most we have the chance.

Good points, and you're right, I've seen mocks that had him going anywhere from 6 to 8th. Gotta give SM an A for effort though, it has been a long time since we've seen this organization do what professional ones do routinely.

Why do you assume that this was a smokescreen from Scot? I think it was just Clayton speculating on a slow news day. Did Scot actually make a statement about Mariota?

Maybe but I don't believe we have the answer at QB on our roster

Ah, I misunderstood. I thought you were saying it was a stupid ploy. Now I get what you mean.

i dont think any of the 31 other gm's would by that simpleton ploy . i believe that drafting him is in play (not likely ) but in play and no GM worth his weight in sand would fall for it
