2015 NFL Draft: Could Oregon Ducks Have a Trifecta in the First Round?
The 2015 NFL Draft begins on Thursday and it is not out of the question for the Oregon Ducks to have three former players chosen in the first round, a trifecta if you will. We all know that Quarterback Marcus Mariota will go in the first round and there are plenty of questions as to where he will land.
The latest rumors have him headed to Tennessee to play for the Titans. Our own Steve Raymond discusses some of the other ideas out there concerning Mariota, including landing in Philadelphia in a trade to play for his former coach, Chip Kelly.
