OSU QB just ran over oregons NG

[Ellsworth]

That is all

[Riccardo]

wow

Mariota is coming up small in the red zone

[Raptor]

6'5 250....big kid

That is all

....a quicker clone of Daunte Culpepper???

[Ellsworth]

Mariotas "stats are better"

[Maniac]

That was not good.

Not quite over yet though.

[Brandonn]

Mariotas "stats are better"

There is a Nick Foles quality to his stats. Watching the game and just looking at stats tell two different storys.

[Ellsworth]

Yes it is. Should be 56-20 now

[Dolomite]

14‑4 in his last 18 starts. He doesn't play CB or FS. Joe Montana could be the QB and they're not winning shit with that secondary. They need to fix what's broken. They don't need to shake a magic 8 ball and hope it upgrades a position where an upgrade would be irrelevant.

[Ellsworth]

I bet he comes out. He just had a kid, he's 22 already, he may not even be named the starter next year with Barrett returning.

He also is the player who tweeted out that moronic statement about not going to ohio state to go to classes, went to play football.

Think he will take the money and run. He doesn't have a whole lot of time to make up his mind either, which is unfortunate. Bet he is being told to go by every scum street agent in his area.

Tough call. Do you take 600k right now or do you wait and potentially make 20 million, but risk an injury or regression or whatever. I'd love to have that problem.

As you mentioned, he strikes me as a bit of a knucklehead.

[Ellsworth]

Seeing as how he has a 2 month old kid, is already 22, and may not even start next year (Barrett hard to sit) inthink he bolts now.

He will get CREAMED about his maturity, commitment, etc though.

Could be next Big Ben or next Jamarcus Russell. Biggest wild card in recent draft history. Somebody will take him much higher than expected I bet based on these 3 games and his physical talent. It's absolutely mind blowing how powerful his arm is and how well he moves for a guy his size.

[McCarthy12]

You think he'll go any higher than the 4th? Heck, Chip was there in person. I'd use a 4th on him. See if Foles pans out over the next few years and let Chip groom him as the successor.

[Ellsworth]

impossible to know. I think if he does well in the interviews he will jump up boards like google stock.

Somebody who badly needs a QB is gonna look at this talent and take him pretty high I think. Bet he goes in third round at worst if he declares. And that's just going off what we know TODAY.

[Raptor]

I think he needs more work...

...but like what I saw....sounds like some maturity issue could really bloom once the $$$ flows....like McCarthy mentioned I would go fourth, mayyyyybe a low third if we grabbed some strong players in the first two rounds.

Either way, he sits his 1st year for developement reasons.

[Melchior]

Haha, you guys all have boners over JaMarcus Russell 2.0.
