My point is, even if we do not get the #1 overall pick and need to settle on a fall back option, the only way Mariota makes sense is if we are going to run an offense similar to what he ran in Oregon. Otherwise, you're risking another Gabbert situation. 

 

People bring up RG3, but Washington tweaked their offense to accomodate RG3 and what he ran in Baylor. 

 

With our offense we are going to need a QB that is similar to the strengths that Teddy brings, even if we don't get Teddy. 

I disagree very strongly with the entire post.

 

If Florence and Petty played at Baylor first and now RG3 was their young hotshot prospect I am 100% certain you would be knocking RG3 for the exact 'system' things you are now knocking Mariota for. I fail to comprehend how you can knock Mariota for the system but not RG3. So narrow minded. 

 

And yes, they are virtually non factors for both of them to me, as is Teddy's SoS. There is ample NFL level traits on film for all of three that you scout just fine without having to put them in a box.
