With the second pick of last week’s NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans took Oregon star Marcus Mariota, who they hope will develop into the team’s franchise quarterback. A billboard has already gone up in Nashville to welcome Mariota to his new home (and sell some season tickets), with the tag-line “this Duck has landed.”

There are questions about Mariota’s transition from Oregon’s system to a more pro-style NFL offense, but there should definitely be more excitement for the Titans with the 2014 Heisman winner under center.
