    Why would we want our #2 QB as a kicking team gunner?

    Bennett has the speed, size and nasty to be a LB.... we are thin there after this year. Why not use his athletic nature there?

    That said the Bleacher article about Mariota being a run first QB that will make our recievers suffer I take exception to. Mariota has great touch and feel with the ball and his recievers, where are they getting this stuff? I think the reason Bennett didn't get the nod is he's got a cannon of an arm and the balls are very hard to catch. I think the recievers more sealed Mariota's gig than anything else.
