Any way that Mariota slides in the draft past #10?
Yes. The Super Bowl is still over 3 weeks away let alone the draft next spring. We've seen this stuff happen before. For reasons that are legitimate or not-so, we've seen slides happen the more nitpicking some of these dummy scouts/GM do. Perfect example is Teddy. Around this time last year he was still a clear cut top 5 guy. Then all of a sudden...
If he puts up a dud in the NCG, bad combine, bad pro day, super imposed picture of skinny elbow -- So many variables yet that could have him slide. I don't anything is guaranteed.
Yeah, that's what I was wondering...you bring up a lot of good points. Teddy Bridgewater is a good example. Gonna be interesting when Mariota measures out at 6'2" 205
only to have the slander bus get started up.
*With the Skins hiring Scot McCloughan, and with his penchant for building teams through the draft, I have a sneaky suspicion we might see Todd Gurley on this roster, only to be stashed for '16. I really don't think that the Skins will stay at #5. Probably going to trade back a few times and stockpile picks.
