Titans clinched No. 2 overall pick...so it's Tampa, then Tennessee...

It is widely believed that the top two picks of the draft will be University of Oregon QB Marcus Mariota and Florida State QB Jameis Winston. The last two Heisman Trophy Award winners just so happen to meet on New Year’s Day in the 2015 Rose Bowl game, which serves as a college football playoff semi-final.
With the second pick locked up, one could very well assume the Titans will look in the direction of Winston, as Mariota will likely be taken with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers‘s number one overall selection. Despite somewhat consistent play this year, Whitehurst is probably out as the starter in Tennessee.
