Jim Wyatt of the Tennessean reports that the Titans have "an opportunity to do something about [the quarterback position] with the second overall pick, but smart money is on sticking with Zach Mettenberger instead of drafting Jameis Winston or Marcus Mariota."
"Those two are probably riskier than Mettenberger, in my opinion," Wyatt wrote. "Charlie Whitehurst figures to be in the equation because coach Ken Whisenhunt loves him and he played well when given the chance last season. But the Titans will add a quarterback."
We don't agree that the two elite QB prospects in this class are riskier than an uninspiring late-round prospect from the year before, but that's besides the point. Assuming the Bucs take Winston No. 1 overall, we'd advise the Titans to sprint to the podium to select Mariota. It seems more likely at this time that they'll either select Leonard Williams or accept a haul to move down. One tempting scenario would involve acquiring Sam Bradford and a collection of picks to swap first rounders with the Eagles. Such a move would conform to Wyatt's postulation.
