In my opinion, I don’t believe Mariota is playing quarterback for the Titans. I also forecast a “minimum” of a half dozen trades in round one.
Trying to do a mock draft is hard enough, so I’m not going to add “predicting” trades to the mix.
I have Chip going defense in round one with Byron Jones out of the University of Connecticut. He will start opposite of Maxwell, and either Thurmond or Watkins will man the slot position as Boykin will not be on the Eagles to start the season.

If I had to pick this moment which team will end up with mariota, I’d say the browns, giving both their firsts, a third this year and a first next year. They are desperate, want to rid themselves of the Manziel short error.
Though Chip has obvious interest in Mariota…
He really likes Famous Jameis Winston
If Jameis happens to fall far expect Chip to swoop in
Bugs may be eyeing Winston at 1 and that dispells all of this but don’t think for a second that Chip only loves Mariota
He loves Winston too
No way on QB Winston who does not pass the Culture Test for Chip
There will be a new story about a 2nd Woman coming forward with Sexual Assaul/Rape Charges about Winston which is why Mayock just moved Mariota ahead of Winston in his QB Rankings the other Day..
Imbecile!!!!!
Nice Job Jeff,
I see no OLB Randy Gregory or RB Melvin Gordon in the 1st Round…
Players like Jalen Collins, Nelson Agholor & Byron Jones & Eric Kendricks & Dorial Green-Beckham just don’t have 1st Round Grades in my Opinion…
I see the Chargers setting their sights on RB Melvin Gordon
Colts and Panthers on OL or DL
Some Team will roll the dice on Pass-Rusher Randy Gregory for there is too much of a premium for pass rushers
Why would he love Winston he runs a 4.9 and ia a headache off the field… mariota falls to 12 then the eagles will ship Bradford and Kendricks to them for mariota….. I personally think he falls anyway none of the teams need a project qb.
Bucs-Winston
Titans- there coach don’t like qbs like mariota he wants pocket passer
Jags- drafted there qb last yr
Raiders- drafted there qb last yr r
Redskins- need help on oline,lb,secondary plus they just drafted rg3 3yrs ago
Jets- there in win now mode with the moves they made this offseason Revis,Cromartie ,Brandon Marshall ect… a rookie qb thar has to sit for 2 yrs isn’t gonna help then on the bench.
Bears- if they didn’t have so much money tied into cutler abd didn’t need so much help on defense then maybe but they do so no.
Falcons-already has a qb
Giants- there in win now mode with there coach and qb no time for rookie that’s not gonna play for 2+ yrs
Rams- just traded for foles has 2 many other needs on offense to take a qb that’s gonna sir that high.
Vikings- they already have there qb
Then the Browns don’t think they wanna take another rookie who might not fit but would be willing to take him to flip him for Bradford and Kendricks.
And if the colts are willing to draft eric Kendricks @29 well they may be willing to trade for michael Kendricks in the same spot. Ijs
The Surprise move by Chip Kelly is the Selection
of QB Bryce Petty in the 2nd Round..
You heard it here first…
Petty is the Future QB come the 2016 Season..
I like petty, think he would be a perfect pick in round 2 for either the jets, skins, bears, brown’s. I do believe if eagles are to draft a qb not named mariota it will be Hundley. Still feel chip wants to be able to see a young, mobile qb in his system.
I’ll be most intrigued if the Rams pick Mariotta ..Then Kool can watch as can we all ,as the past ,Nick foles ,battles the future ,in Mariotta ..what an irony ,that would be
Jeff …petty running that Baylor offense is very similiar spread like Oklahoma ,that would be a former one pick in sam I am ,tutoring the future in petty .I thought his throws were very impressive in the workouts ..All the QBs in my opinion need so much seasoning ,I’m more interested in how e fill the obvious Swiss cheese holes..Corner ,safety ,O line ..I do like one corner ,but I see him going sooner than 10 ,let alone being there at 20,Wayne’s..Id see them taking an O lineman ,as he’s invested so much money in his running game ,and possibly finding Kevin Johnson or Byron jones ,later..
3 questions for everyone
1. Why haven’t the eagles picked up the 5th yr option on fletcher cox ijs..
2. Why haven’t they given an extension to Michael Kendricks
3. Why haven’t given a extension to sam Bradford who is not a 13million dollar qb…
4. Are they all trade chips.
I just read the jets picked up a 5th year on somebody and it’s the first one I read about so maybe it’s the ‘season’….I wouldn’t panic about cox.
Are they trade chips? Only the mad scientist knows.
I know you are trying to speculate on Mariotta… But those trade scenarios with 4-5 starting players …they just don’t happen in the NFL…
5th yr options that have already been picked up
Andrew luck
David decastro
Melvin Ingram
Quinton couples
Ones who wil be picked up soon
1. Kendall wright
2.dontari poe
3. Stephen Gilmore
4. Ryan tanahill
5. Harrison smith
6. Bruce Irvin
7. Luke kueckly
8. Michael brockers
9. RG3
And cigar why trade picks if you have young talent to trade makes more sense to me whether it’s the titans jets or bears they could all use Kendricks Boykin,curry and Bradford none are starters outside of Bradford abd he would,be replaced by mariota ijs hell you can even throw the bucs on the also.
You give me four guys out of the nfl and a bunch of ‘should be soon’
I’m not talking about from the eagles perspective, I’m talking what trading partner would want it? NONE!
Kendrick’s is a starter and Boyer and curry could be
Kendricks is no longer a starter kiko is here and demeco not playing backup or special teams
Ok it was 4 questions not 3 these Damn smart phones button sensitivity
To me it comes down to the titans they have to trade options for #2
Trade 1
San Diego chargers send #17 & phillip rivers
For the #2 pick
Or
Trade 2
Titans send #2 pick to
Philly for #52,fletcher cox,Michael Kendricks Boykin and sam Bradford
The titans would have to decide which deal is better I know rivers is better than Bradford but he’s also 34 where as Bradford is 27 plus they would be getting way more Talent…… I know people are gonna,claim you can’t trade that many players but whynt only one is a starter and that’s cox…. Bradford would be replaced with mariota Boykin is already replaced so is Kendricks and I would rather give up backup players than future draft picks….
Gloomy, solid point, one I’ve been discussing for a while. The titans need help on their d..we could immediately provide started at all 3 levels. I think they would prefer a pick instead kf mariota, roll with the lsu kid from last year. So Bradford to brown’s for Pk 19. But I think it would still take pks 19 and 20 plus the three players..and still possibly another pk. Which I’m fine with. ..do the deal at any cost.
Typo, Bradford and not mariota
Yeah I was ok with Bradford at first but not at 13million and 2 acl tears am I ok with him….now they need to get mariota and the fact that they haven’t given him an extension or selling his jersey in stores says to me he’s gone.
Can either of you lunatics document a time in the nfl when a team traded for 4 establish players? Give me one in the last 10 years???
Titans are dropping out the #2 Pick without a 1st Round Pick
In 2015 & 2016 regardless on what Players are involved..
You think the Titans will go from the 2nd Overall Pick down to #52??
No way Jose…
Just looked over the titans roster thru may throw in Michael griffin just to get some more cap space since they signed the bills safety tda’norris Searcy this offseason and already have Jason mccourty
Cigar they maybe established but none fit what chip wants outside of cox with all the moves they have made on defense this offseason where does Kendricks and Boykin fit in at.
Um stop looking at it from the eagles point of view! It takes a trading partner ….no team wants to take on 4-5 established players ..case and point no team has ever done it…
WTF part, of you are an idiot, & it AIN’T happening, don’t you understand!!!! 5 players & a pick, doesn’t hasn’t, & will not happen!! If it does, Kelly needs to be carried out by White coats in the war-room!
Final trade offer to titans if I’m chip
Bradford
Kendricks
Boykin
Curry
#20
For
#2 pick & Michael griffin
They will get a chuckle out of that offer…
Why would they get a chuckle hell if thru don’t want Bradford then you could always ship him to the Browns for 19 or 12 then ship both 19 & 20 with those players to the titans it makes no sense why they wouldn’t want those players.
Again, find me a trade of similar style… Teams don’t want players on expiring contracts for a premier pick thatyou can control for a long time… It makes no sense from their perspective ..it is not done…NEVER been done…EVER
I rather have a good player on the last yr of his deal knowing I can lock him long term on there terms not the other teams contract none of them are gonna demand crazy money abd the titans have money to pay them.
Ok… Sure gloomy says it’s a good trade … You are more unaware of the market than Fraudman
Wow didn’t know thst was bad trade…..
Gloomy what don’t you get? The nfl doesnt do those kinds of trades…
You are correct, it hasn’t really been done, although there have been multiple players and pks exchanged in drafts in the history of nfl draft. Chip has already done some deals and made moves that were non traditional, so it gives some feel like one of the wild proposals we come up with could go down..
Not multiple players
I’m going to think that mariota is a possibility until it’s simply done and over and he is on another team. So…at pick 20…what 3 guys does everyone like ? Collins..ol from lsu….Berriman wr out if ucf and jones cb from uconn are my 3. I gave no limits with what I would surrender to get mariota. If I could get a 1 from cle for bradford, I’d send both firsts this yr and for the next 2 yrs after if that’s what it took.
So to recap…we have Mariotta and no 1 or 2 next year and no 1 the following? Yikes!
I’m going aggressive in fa.. with not spending that huge cap figure on a qb.. I’ll fill in holes via fa
Hey Jeff I’m with you I want no parts of Bradford he’s a injury waiting to happen…. and if they could only give up three 1st Rd picks plus let’s say Boykin and Kendricks I’ll do that deal in a heartbeat cause you still keep the rest of your draft… and if they stay@20 I look for them to trade back maybe even out of the 1st Rd it’s no need to take a,Collins who doesn’t fit what they want on a safety and Berriman + jones wasn’t even thought of in the 1st Rd til they ran there 40’s….. this team still has holes to fill so if you can’t get your qb of the future trade back and get more picks to help the rest of your team out.
So you acknowledge multiple holes to fill but you trade away 3 number ones …let’s hope chip doesn’t listen
I can fill wr..cb..s in other rds. I have one of each in rds 2-7
Cigar my trade is for chip if he isn’t patient cause I think mariota falls 12 then they just flip Bradford for him… but the key is will chip just wait it out or will he go up and get his guy I say he falls none of the teams ahead of them need a qb and some can’t a afford to take him being as though it’s gonna take him 2-3 yrs just to be a pro style qb and coaches don’t have that long.
gloomy…I now believe that Chip did get Bradford in an effort to flip him for Mariota…I just dont think he can pull it off…
The main thing is that Chip wants as many options as possible..if he cant get Mariota he will settle on trying to get Hundley or some other prospect in the 2nd or 3rd round…and roll with Bradford
However, his main effort is geared towards trying to get Mariota and everything is a fall back position
Multiple holes, but he wants to trade away 4-5 players, & picks! Makes sense, doesn’t it?
Makes sense if you have replaced those players. Can’t win in this league without a QB
I’m more open to Bradford at qb vs foles, I knew ceiling on foles..Bradford biggest question is health. Biggest thing that sours philly fans is that 2nd we gave up for bradford. Whether foles or Bradford… we were and will see a little Sanchez in 2015.
Jeff I think the only reason they even had to give up the 2nd was because the rams knew they were flip Bradford for either a 1st or mariota
I think you two must jerk off to pics of Marriota…you are ridiculous
So cigar you would rather have Bradford over mariota
I don’t care! You are proposing trades that don’t ever happen
It will all play out in 20 days we can all sit back and enjoy the ride for whatever chip does or doesn’t do.
You win today’s Fraudman award for absurdity
You can call it that after the draft if he doesn’t make the trade. .
Gloomy find me once in nfl history where a team traded for a bunch of players… Just once..Google it or something…I did and it doesn’t happen Fraudman ..oops I mean gloomy
You wanna know why it doesn’t happen most teams that have thst talent don’t want to get rid of it but two 1st Rd picks Boykin and Kendricks isn’t a crazy trade.
So let’s say the last 30 years times 30 teams = 900 off seasons and none have had talents as great as Boykin and Kendrick’s … Silly absolute nonsense …ok I say lane Johnson, ertz and Jason peters for Mariotta! Throw in Parkey, Kielce and barwin and the titans throw in a 4th….
You talk Like Kendricks is a bad player or Boykin is they just don’t fit what chip wants not to say they don’t fit a team with no talent at all on there roster they could use a ilb Kendricks is good nor great plus they get a nickel corner that they may end up starting plus two 1st Rd picks that’s not bad at all.
Kendrick’s and Boykin are fine players that may or mY not fit… So what trades like you propose don’t happen. Ever historically
My wife is cool with it
Has your wife given you historical perspective as to when such a stupid trade has happened?
So your logic is just cause a trade has never happened means it will never happen okkkkk..
gloomy, you are an immature, irrational, unreasonable, delusional, imbecile!
Yeah they holes cigar but It won’t matter If we fill them thru the draft or not if Bradford tears his acl in ota’s
My logic is there is a way of doing business and this is outside of that way… There isn’t a gm to sign off on your stupidly
Chip Kelly will probably draft BRETT HUNDLEY the QB out of UCLA. MARK MY WORDS!!!!
Fans will never learn. The only thing fans will be saying on draft night is WTF was Chip thinking? Are you kidding me? I waited 4 months for this. I am done with the Eagles until Chip is gone. They never even brought that player in for a visit. We could of got that player in round 3. Chip has destroyed this team.So and so was on the board and we picked who? I guarantee you this is what will happen draft night.
And it will be warranted, because he’s unqualified & clueless!
Eagle fans have lost their minds. We all have seen 3 way trades in basketball but for us fans to suggest(Im also guilty of this) that we traded our QB for Bradford and a pick to only turn around and then trade Bradeford to another team is ridiculous.. That has never ever happened. in any sport. It almost sounds illegal but definitely is immoral and not good faith or business. . There is noway they bring Bradford and his family in here for 2 months then tell him and his family he is traded again. That doesn’t happen. Bradford is the Eagles QB. The logical answer to why his contract hasn’t been extended is probably if Marriota falls and they can get him with draft picks and/or players at not a steep price but I would fully expect the Eagles to renegotiate Bradord to a contract/cap friendlier extension after the draft.
Yep
Bradford & Murray tell Chip Kelly they want to be Traded
Together to the same Team…
They cite the Ignorance of Eagles Fans and the Fact that they
Can’t buy Eagle Jersey’s yet for their Families & Friends
Rumors have them both being packaged to
The Browns for their 19th & Johnny Football
Yeah I guess your right it is crazy to think that browns offered the eagles one of there 1st Rd picks and that the eagles could trade him for better pick than what they gave up to get him… wow that is crazy lmao it would only be bad business if they signed a player then traded him not if they trade for somebody then flip them for something else…..
There not selling his jerseys in stores
Hell he didn’t even have a jersey at his press conference
And they still haven’t given him an extension
Ijs add it he’s trade bait unless he can’t get mariota then he’s just stuck with him hell I’ll take it a step further if he doesn’t get mariota he’s gone in 2 yrs and if he does get he’s gone in 6yrs
Paulman if thats the case then why didn’t they do that deal from the start? Foles to the Rams, Bradford to Cleveland and Manziel to th Eagles plus Clevelands 19 th pick?
Because Browns GM Ray Farmer was still going thru his
“investigation” with the NFL with the Texting his Coach’s during
a Game .. Farmer and many others thought he would be suspended immediatlely, instead of 4 weeks beginning in September…
Is Kikos or Ryan Matthews or Byron Maxwells Jerseys on sale?
Yup all are on sale and the eagles can’t trade maxwell or Matthews without taking Hugh cap hits so that notion makes no sense since if the trade Bradford there cap hit is 0 zero… daggolden they didn’t make that deal then for 2 reasons
1. It’s tipping theee hand that there going after mariota
2. Bradford is there insurance policy if there unable to get mariota
Word is Bradford is contemplating Retirement again mis to sure he has
The Heart, Passion & Comittment unless he gets a New Extension ..
Eagles got abused in the Trade big F’n Time
*** Browns Offer a 3rd Pick & Johnny Football
For Sam Bradford…
Chip is leaning to take their Offer..
Easgles will now have Mark Sanchez as
Opening Day Starter..
The 3rd Round Pick is the #76 Pick
Which Kelly uses on Oregon Center Hronnis Grasso
Paulman last I heard was they offered there 2nd Rd pick and Johnny football for Bradford they uped the offer after the eagles laughed pff the 2nd Rd pick.
Gloomy I think you pissed fraud man off by coming up with even goofier trade ideas than him… He had that market cornered. But you’ve proven to have even less knowledge of market value
Only way I’m taking Johnny football is if the Browns either offer one of those 1st Rd picks or 2nd and 3rd Rd picks nothing less than that
What I’ve read is that Browns/Rams trade for Bradford fell through, not because of compensation between the two teams, but because Bradford would not sign the long-term extension the Browns were offering/insisting upon.
So, unless that contract offer/negoriation changes, there’s not going to be any Eagles/Browns trade for Brdford.
****** trade alert******
Eagles trade sam Bradford and Brandon Boykin and pick #145 (5th rd)
To the Cleveland Browns for #12 overall pick and select marcus mariota
The eagles then trade #20 to the Jacksonville Jaguars for picks
#36 #67 & #139
The eagles also ship Michael Kendricks to the
Oakland Raiders for picks #35 & #140
The eagles then have picks
#35 #36 & #52 in the 2nd Rd
#67 & #84 in Rd 3
#113 in the 4th
#139 & #140 in the 5th rd
Plus marcus mariota
Your trade would constitute the biggest trade of players in the history of the nfl
& #156 IN THE 5TH RD
Weak football moment today on my end… watched over a quarter of the soul game…
Yeah…that’s bad bro…lol…football season cant get here quick enough…its barren lands here the Phillies suck…nothing to watch now…just have to hold on until the draft and the big fight!
I use to watch boxing religiously throughout mid 90’s until early 2000’s. Ufc really became what I switched with the product that boxing was offering. I have a lot of close friends who can’t wait for the fights, I hope it lives up to the hype, boxing really needs to come through with a great fight, fans, boxing community need and deserves it.
Word is the titans want to trade down but want a veteran qb in the trash down there looking at sam Bradford,phillip rivers and Jay cutler
So the eagles could offer fletcher cox,Bradford and Boykin with #52 for the 2nd overall pick and then replace cox with arik armstead@20
i believe all three of them are on the last year of their deal?? is that correct? gloomy you are more ridiculous than the fraudman…if you think the Titans would do that deal you need psychiatric help…
If there only dealing with the eagles,bears abd chargers then yes I think they would do that deal cause neither the chargers or bears can offer more than there qbs and 1st Rd picks….. I mean the eagles cab take there 2nd Rd pick out and throw their 1st in there but I don’t think it’s a need for that.
Cutler has a crazy contract and very little talent
Phillip rivers is in the last yr of his deal and is 34 so how many yrs does he have left and last I checked the titans weren’t a team one player away.
You get a stud 3-4 de or 4-3 dt with 2 yrs left on his deal
Bradford one yr left only 27 so if he stays healthy can grow with the Young team
BOYKIN who is still you and could start every team doesn’t go by the small cb bs that chip does
Plus they get a 2nd Rd pick
So yeah if your going by that the eagles can offer the best package
You truly have no idea what your talking about
Or maybe you have no ideal what your talking about.
One of us will be right draft night and and one us will be wrong
Crabtree to the raiders…why does this seem familiar?
If chip has given on mariota and wants this Grayson kid maybe he flips Bradford for 2nd and 3rd picks
Don’t fall Asleep on QB Trevor Siemian from Northwestern who missed most of last Season with a Torn ACL .. Has Size at 6-3 220lbs and is Smart, Tough with Good Leadership Skills and just the Type of QB/PLayer that Kelly Likes…. Keep your Eye on this Kid for other Teams like him too..
