Folks might think I'm biased, but I root for the Browns #2 (very distant 2nd) and I would love to see him there.  

I agree Mac has that in spades, but so did Tebow, whose presence was legendary. Not saying they're equal QBs, but how much do teams value the leadership?

You still have to be able to play. I'm not saying Mac can't, but he doesn't have the physical tools, the sample size was small. Did he do enough to convince teams he's worth a 2nd or better when they wouldn't spend a 4th or 5th on him in 2014? Mind you he's also 27 now. Not exactly old, but 5 years older than a typical rookie QB.
