Marcus Mariota Is Exactly What We Signed Up For

On April 30, 2015, I remember sitting on my couch and yelling at the television, pleading with the Titans to make the safe move and draft Leonard Williams out of USC instead of a quarterback with the second overall pick in the draft. To me, Marcus Mariota was the same old Oregon quarterback that we had seen for years; you know the list of Dennis Dixon, Kellen Clemens, Joey Harrington, AJ Feeley, and Akili Smith to name a few. The now second year man was a system quarterback and in my eyes way behind the other big name quarterback in 2015, Jameis Winston.
