The titans would be wise to get proper coaching and put the right scheme around Mariota to maximize his strengths. We have seen Goff+Wentz flourish doing this.

Regarding the bolded bit - I ranked Mariota and Garoppolo similarly when they came out respectively and still do. 
I think Jimmy G will do pretty well when he gets his shot. (I liked Wentz, was a bit scared of Dak, and was really scared of Watson due to all the one read stuff in school)

Regarding the coaching/scheme for Mariota, I agree. He's being held back a bit. Though they are clearly smart about using the TE, I think they could tweak their playbook with the receivers to utilize Mariota better. 

I think the high number of picks vs steelers was an exception to the rule for him.  Only two of them were especially egregious errors on his part really. 
I hope he keeps up the trend, but I think he's smart enough to learn from it.
