Analyzing and Projecting the Rookie QBs: Tampa Bay's Jameis Winston and Tennessee's Marcus Mariota
Since 2002, only 18 rookie quarterbacks have started week 1 of the season for their team, and five of them came in 2012. On average, a rookie QB that starts week one finishes the season with just over 3,100 yards passing and 16 TDs, numbers that do not make them very valuable in fantasy football. […]

Marcus Mariota Has Yet to Throw an Interception at Camp, Which Basically Means Crap
Observing NFL training camps is a hoot.

Around this time last year, there was considerable buzz surrounding rookie running back Bishop Sankey.

Marcus Mariota Signs With That One Team Everyone Forgets Exists
After doing their best impression of the invisible man this past decade, the Tennessee Titans took off their glasses and pulled down their ponytail to reveal that they are no longer the plain, four-eyed nerdy girl everyone overlooks – they’re now just the plain girl with freaking contact lenses and a complexion issue.

2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper: Wide Receiver Kendall Wright
