This surprises me, Mariota can't really improve his stock much more.

Not worth going back and risking the potential of an injury.

Then again... Maybe he remembers what happened last time Houston had 1st overall pick and took a QB. He might save himself an injury by staying in school...

That will rework some draft boards.  Also make it possible that if someone passes early on a QB, they might want to jump back into the first round with someone sitting around, oh I don't know, from 28-32?

 

Will trust Gman to make the right call

hopefully he improves in areas he needs to, but i think you should go as early as possible.now scouts got another year to sit back and nitpick at your game tape, and the injury bug could become an issue. he just recently had a knee sprain. i really do believe that you go to college to get a better job, and if that job is to play football, you take that opportunity asap.

 

but good luck MM.

1. He's still young and yes, there are areas he can grow in.

2. I wouldn't want to play for the poo hole of a city Houston, or Jacksonville for that matter.

3. Whats wrong with the kid getting a degree. That's the main reason for going to college.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
