Here's What Chip Kelly Reportedly Offered For Marcus Mariota

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A lot. A whole lot.

Remember when we're amid all of that Chip Kelly-Marcus Mariota hoopla before last year's draft? Well, apparently -- according to NFL Insider Peter Schrager -- Kelly did indeed offer a boatload for Mariota.

"Last year, the Eagles offered the Tennessee Titans -- and I know this -- a 2015 first round pick, a 2015 second round pick, a 2016 first round pick. And they said 'Take any of our quarterbacks,'" Schrager told Colin Cowherd on The Herd via NJ.com. "That's Sam Bradford, that's Sanchez, that's whoever. And, they said, take anyone on our defense. We want that number two pick. We want Marcus Mariota."

Woah. Well that would have changed everything.

And maybe, if Andy Reid didn't tamper with Jeremy Maclin, we would have seen Mariota and J-Mac hook up for a lot of touchdowns. And maybe, Kelly would still be here?

Or maybe not.
