    I think Marcus will be a bust. He's going to end up getting drafted by a crappy team and he'll get the crap beat out of him for 3 years like so many other highly drafted QBs before him. I think his chances to be a success in the NFL will be much better if he falls to a good team, is allowed to sit the bench for a year and takes over with decent talent around him. A lot of the top passers in the game today had career paths like this. Brees, Rogers, Brady.

    Some decent weapons in Tampa if he went there. I don't want him to go to Tennesee though... That's a train wreck. I'd be ok with him falling to Denver though :p

    My fear exactly!!! He'll go to a team that will feed him to the wolves with no protection and they'll be running a standard pro style offense that he needs a learning curve for and he'll pay the ultimate price adjusting. Let's hope he falls to the Eagles some how or tanks his pro day just enough to create top 12 doubt.

    I heard both Helfrich & Mariota say that the reason MM declared for the draft is because Helfrich promised the starting spot to Lockie
