That's ok... I didn't want the Vikings to draft him anyway.Quarterback Marcus Mariota will bypass the 2014 NFL draft and return for his junior season at Oregon, it was announced Tuesday.

The Devil whispered in the Viking's ear, "There's a storm coming." The Viking replied, "I am the storm." #SKOL2018

Re: Mariota to return to Oregon
Hope they can keep him healthy next year. Somewhat risky IMO. Woulda liked to see him here in Purple...but no guarantee that would happen or that he's gonna be a stud.

Don't forget about Winston.mrc44 wrote:He will project #1 overall in 2015, and we will most likely be there to grab him so this is fine with me. Great kid and a great player. His talent has no ceiling, the kid just turned 20!!! He will be a great pro when he makes the transition.

Re: Mariota to return to Oregon
Would not be surprised to Brett Hundley stay at UCLA as well. Which means the top two QBs will be Bridgewater and... Manziel.

Re: Mariota to return to Oregon
We still have a chance to get AJ McCarron so there's nothing to worry about. We should also looking into Aaron Murray. Is draft stock is sure to go down now because of his injury. He will be a good mid-round steal

I should add if it's not true at all I hope she does because she could ruin his career, and that is absurd if it's all made up.just want to be fair to both sides.

Re: Mariota to return to Oregon
I hope it works out for him, most of the recent QB's who have elected to stay has turned out to be a poor decision. I'm torn on who to hope for now, Bridgewater I guess. Maybe Manz... nope can't do it sorry, not unless he falls out of the 1st. I also hope the Vikings don't fall into the "50% screen pass" Carr trap either. Hopefully Fresno plays a good defense in a bowl game, then everyone will see that he's mostly average with a strong arm.
