TrueLuvYaBlue77 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 After much further review, and accepting the fact that Phillip Rivers is more than likely "not" going to be in a Titans uniform, I have really placed both of these under a microscope in very detailed fashion as of late. All and all, and regrettably against what I initially thought, this Mannion looks like the next best possible option in the Whisenhunt system at great value in the later rounds. He looks "to me" like a combination of a Ben Big and Matt Ryan, has the physical size and Pro-Style system awareness, and appears to have a high football-Q. I also like his career passing rating of 135.8. On the other hand, I've liked Hundley and called him "like others" Mariota 2.0 to the shagreen of other fan opinions. I now think he is going to have the better NFL start than Mariota, and possible surprise QB of the 2015 NFL Draft. It has always been the diamond-in-the-rough players or under-thre-radar kind of quarterbacks that always seem to flourish the best in the NFL, and to me, the Eagles may get lucky taking him instead of getting the expensive chance at Mariota.

Titans279 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Mannion is very much like a worse Mettenberger imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansGuru Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I agree about Hundley. He's my second favorite quarterback this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgo Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Wouldn't touch Hundley with a 10 foot pole. I would absolutely love it if they bypassed Mariota and took Mannion a little later on instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansfan Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 1. Hundley is not in anyway "Mariota 2.0". 2. If you draft him it would be in 2nd or 3rd round which means you prolly should draft Mariota Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesterCopperpot1 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Didn't Mannion lose his starting job at OSU twice? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would absolutely love it if they bypassed Mariota and took Mannion a little later on instead. I wouldn't touch any with a ten foot pole other than Winston, and there's a good chance he busts, too. I hate this QB class. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you draft him it would be in 2nd or 3rd round which means you prolly should draft Mariota Mariota is hundley 2.0. You'll get the same results from both, why take one in the first when you can get hundley later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WG53 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Mariota is hundley 2.0. You'll get the same results from both, why take one in the first when you can get hundley later. You say the dumbest things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titans279 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Didn't Mannion lose his starting job at OSU twice? I had forgotten about his, had to look it up to remember the situation. His sophomore season he was the starter, hurt his knee (meniscus), and had surgery. He was replaced by a senior backup Cody Vaz for two games. When he came back he wasn't great and was replaced by Vaz for 3 games until Vaz was injured. Mannion started two games where he looked great vs. Cal and then like garbage vs. Oregon. The two QBs split time in the final game of the season and the senior QB got the start in the bowl game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completed 66% of his passes, threw for 4700 yards, 37 TDs and 15 Ints. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyle021 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I don't see Hundley making it past NYJ or STL in round 2... He could be a wildcard option for a team like Houston in Rd 1... Maybe even Denver, and possibly Cleveland at #19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rns90 Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Maybe even Denver, and possibly Cleveland at #19 No chance he goes to DEN. They'll be trying to win in Manning's final year and will address OL or DL. However, CLE I totally agree. I think they brought him in for a visit last week. They're nuts if they rely on Manziel in any form next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lost me. Most of the top Qbs in the league were not diamonds in the rough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
