2015 NFL Draft

Winston (4.97) nearly half a second slower in the 40 than Mariota (4.52). Mariota tops among QBs. Former OSU QB Sean Mannion slowest among those who ran at 5.14.

 
After watching the Combine I think it is a given that Winston will be the #1 pick.

I think that Mariota might fall to the Jets, but nothing i have seen makes me think he doesnt deserve to be a top 3 pick.

 
So, this trade is being floated. Really makes a lot of sense for all involved:

Chargers get Sam Bradford and #20 pick (from Eagles) and #33 pick (from Titans)

Titans get Phillip Rivers and Eagles' third round pick

Eagles get #2 overall pick

Chargers don't think they have Rivers past this season. Looking to trade him before they lose him in free agency. Also, don't want to be searching for a QB while moving to LA (possibly).

Titans get a proven QB they haven't had in forever.

Kelly - in all likelihood - gets Mariota.

Being a Chiefs fan I would much rather see Bradford at QB than Rivers going forward. Sounds to me like the Titans and Eagles would get the best of that deal.

 
Yeah, as a Broncos fan the only thing I like about Rivers is being able to laugh at him when he's throwing a tantrum.

But the Chargers also get two prime draft picks as well. Combining with their own picks would give them four of the first 48 choices (17, 20, 33 & 48). Not sure if Bradford is the answer at QB but they could definitely reach a little with one of those second round picks to get one of the second-tier QBs in this draft. Or make another trade.
