48. <p>In a shocking move, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers change their minds and take quarterback Marcus Mariota with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. The Buccaneers understand that taking quarterback Jameis Winston might prove to be too risky in the grand scheme of what they truly need.</p> <p>At 6’4″ and 222 pounds, Mariota proves to be the safer pick for the Buccaneers as they will have him step right in and do his very best to steer them in a winning direction. A proven leader, Mariota will develop quickly thanks to his high football IQ and ability to make big plays with ease and precision.</p> <p>Overall, Mariota will most likely need time to adjust to life in the NFL but make no mistake about it, with the right coaching and development, Mariota will become the next big thing to hit the league in quite some time. The Buccaneers will finally have their true franchise quarterback to lead the team for years to come.</p>. QB. Oregon. Marcus Mariota. 1. player
