Chargers are making a strong push towards resigning Rivers.
That leaves the #2 pick a two-horse race between the Eagles and Browns.

I still don't think either does it. As schitzo as Cleveland's FO is though it would not surprise me at all if they went through it. I just hope its with Oakland at 4 and they throw a first next year in for good measure so Oakland can have another top 5 pick next year.Originally Posted by Kingspoint
In this era of NFL you MUST have a qb and except for Drew Brees every qb since Brad Johnson was drafted by their team that won.

Browns have already offered picks 12 and 19 to the Titans. I think they will get it done.
Proposal by the Eagles could be....Mariota to the Eagles for elite and young players Brandon Boykin (#19 Cover CB out of 108 qualifiers per PFF), Mychal Kendricks (#6 ILB per PFF), Fletcher Cox (#5 3-4 DE per PFF), the #20, #52 from this season, and a 1st round pick next season. Cleveland can't come close to matching that, nor will they. Tennessee has more holes than almost any team in the NFL. To get three young pro bowlers and three high picks is the best deal. The only thing better would be Rivers, but he's not available.

IMO its the Eagles for #2 or nobody. I think Kelly wants Mariotta in an irrational way and he will get the deal done.
and if Ken Whisenhunt wants Sam Bradford to lead that Titans team over Marcus Mariotta.... He should go ahead resign and save Tennessee the trouble of firing him after they finish yet again in the top 5.

They have one of, if not the, worst G.M.'s in the NFL. The player personnel isn't Whisenhut's fault.

And, here it comes....(btw, nobody gets news on the NFL and gets it more accurately than LaCanfora).
Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports the Eagles have made the Titans a "very substantial offer" for the No. 2 overall pick.

Been reporting for several weeks that a Mariota trade could still happen after TEN takes him. Chip Kelly's offer wouldn't go away

Now that Winston has been taken, the draft can begin.

Tennessee isn't keeping Mariota.

So far...
1. Tampa Bay, QB Jameis Winston
2. Tennessee, QB Marcus Mariota (no rumored trade to be made, yet)
3. Jacksonville, EDGE Dante Fowler, Jr.
4. Oakland, WR Amari Cooper
5. Washington, OT Scherff
6. NYJets, DT Leonard Williams

That's crazy about the Jets. They already have two of the three best DT's in the NFL and now they get Williams. There's no Offensive Line that can block these guys.

Seems like people are going to reach for O-Linemen. I have to imagine we go DT here instead.
It's playing out that we get DT Malcom Brown.
