Ken Whisenhunt believes Marcus Mariota is ready to start from Day 1 in the NFL.

“If he comes to us at No. 2, he’s definitely going to be the Day 1 starter,” Whisenhunt said, via Jim Corbett of USA Today. “I’m very impressed by Marcus.”

Whisenhunt later clarified that the Tennessee Titans would only draft a quarterback second overall with that type of expectation since it is such a big investment. The Titans currently have Zach Mettenberger and Charlie Whitehurst on the roster.
