literally my thoughts on the matter:
. i think the article twisted the reporters words around

How badly do the Philadelphia Eagles want Marcus Mariota as their quarterback?
They reportedly are "going to do whatever it takes" to trade up for him in the NFL Draft.
Eagles beat reporter Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer was on 97.5 The Fanatic in Philly Wednesday and said he expects the Eagles to try hard to get Mariota. Very hard.
“Unless I’m missing something here, if Marcus Mariota is available, the Eagles are going to do whatever it takes to get him,” McLane told The Fanatic’s Eytan Shander and Harry Mayes.
“I don’t think it’s any secret that (coach) Chip Kelly loves Mariota. He’s equated him to Peyton Manning. So he wants Marcus Mariota. What we don’t know (is) if he thinks Marcus is worth what he thinks it will take to move up to go get him. They’re going to make a real strong effort to go up and get him.”
This is major news. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have the first pick in the draft and are believed to be choosing between Mariota and Jameis Winston. Some reports say they are leaning toward Mariota, while others say the opposite is true.
Even if the Bucs don’t take Mariota, the Eagles need to determine how high they would need to move up from their spot at No. 20 in order to take the reigning Heisman Trophy winner.
