Mariota’s mobility should serve the Titans well this season. The former Oregon Duck was known to put pedal to the medal and take off rushing as displayed by the total 2,237 ground yards he tallied in college.

Look for Mariota, as he transitions to the professional level, to play it a bit more conservatively on the ground for the 2105 season. He should make plenty of plays with his arm, though, to Tennessee’s intriguing receiving corps.

2015 Projection: 3,375 passing yards, 427 rushing yards, 22 touchdowns, 12 interceptions
