Marcus Mariotaย will likely go first or second overall in this draft. The former Oregon Ducks QB is a tremendous wild card; on numerous levels. This is also the first NFL Draft in which Chip Kelly has absolute power in building his Philadelphia Eagles roster. That makes this draft one of the least predictable ever.
Kelly’s ways and Mariota’s presence means your NFL mock draft will likely get shredded into a million little pieces on Thursday night.
Joining me to discuss these topics and more isย 750 The Game Portland Program Director and Afternoon host Mike Ragz. He’s on 5-9pm Central, 3-7 Pacific on weekdays (follow him on Twitter @ragzthegame) He knows as much about the two Oregon Ducks icons as anyone
Have a listen below as we cover a whole host of NFL Draft topics:
Who knows what Chip Kelly has up his sleeve?
He’s got to have a genius master plan behind-the-scenes that we just don’t see yet. It’s certainly not Tim Tebow. Feature stories on Tebow, and Tebow’s NFL career itself it like a woman who talks about her sorority after age 25, there just comes a time when you need to put it to rest.
As for Sam Bradford and Mark Sanchez, maybe Chip Kelly is hoarding signal callers to package them in a trade for Marcus Mariota? And perhaps that might even happen under the NFL Draft?
