2015 NFL Draft


By: Emilio & Henry

The 2015 NFL draft is coming up soon on April 30th. There is a lot of hype surrounding Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota. The two best quarterbacks in this years draft. Jameis Winston is projected to go number one overall to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Jameis Winston is so athletically gifted and he isn't a bad passer either. Although Winston isn't a sure thin based off of his off the field activity. Mariota is an extremely talented quarterback and has more skill than winston but, hasn't been in huddle once. Which is what you do before every play in the NFL. There is also a lot of hype around Amari Cooper, the Wide Receiver from Alabama University. He has been compared to one of the best receivers in the NFL, Jordy Nelson.

The Tennessee Titans have the second overall pick in the draft and have about three decisions they can make. They could keep their current quarterback, Whisenhunt,  and draft somebody else that could help their team. They could take a chance on Mariota and hope that he is NFL ready and can lead the Titans to 5+ wins. Or, they could trade that pick to the Philadelphia Eagles with Chip Kelly, Mariota's old coach, and theTitans would have longer to decide who to pick.

No matter what happens, this should be an exciting draft.
