The Return of the Todd McShay Big Board

by Jimmy on Dec 29, 2008 11:43 PM CST in 2009 Draft Comment 19 comments

The Titans are in the playoffs so we don't have to start thinking about the draft just yet, but it is never to early to take a peak at some big boards.

Todd McShay's after the jump:

Player	Position	School	Height	Weight	Grade
1. Andre Smith*	OT	Alabama	6-4⅞	341	98
2. Sam Bradford**	QB	Oklahoma	6-3½	218	98
3. Aaron Curry	OLB	Wake Forest	6-1¾	247	97
4. Michael Crabtree**	WR	Texas Tech	6-2½	208	97
5. Malcolm Jenkins	CB	Ohio State	6-0	195	97
6. Aaron Maybin**	DE	Penn State	6-3½	250	97
7. Matthew Stafford*	QB	Georgia	6-2½	235	97
8. Jeremy Maclin**	WR	Missouri	6-0⅝	198	96
9. Everette Brown*	DE	Florida State	6-4¼	252	96
10. Eugene Monroe	OT	Virginia	6-5⅛	310	96
11. Rey Maualuga	ILB	USC	6-1⅞	260	96
12. Brian Orakpo	DE	Texas	6-3½	255	95
13. Vontae Davis*	CB	Illinois	5-11⅞	203	95
14. Gerald McCoy*	DT	Oklahoma	6-3½	243	95
15. Mark Sanchez*	QB	USC	6-2½	225	95
16. Jermaine Gresham*	TE	Oklahoma	6-5	266	95
17. B.J. Raji*	DT	Boston College	6-1¼	334	94
18. Knowshon Moreno**	RB	Georgia	5-10⅜	207	94
19. Jason Smith	OT	Baylor	6-4½	300	94
20. James Laurinaitis	ILB	Ohio State	6-2	240	94
21. Brandon Pettigrew	TE	Oklahoma State	6-5⅝	260	94
22. Chris Wells*	RB	Ohio State	6-1	235	93
23. Michael Oher	OT	Mississippi	6-5	330	93
24. Terrence Cody*	DT	Alabama	6-4½	375	93
25. LeSean McCoy**	RB	Pittsburgh	5-11	205	92
26. Jerry Hughes**	DE	TCU	6-2	245	92
27. Tyson Jackson	DE	LSU	6-4¼	295	91
28. Taylor Mays*	S	USC	6-3½	225	91
29. Greg Hardy*	DE	Mississippi	6-4⅛	267	90
30. Brian Cushing	OLB	USC	6-2¾	253	90
31. Ndamukong Suh*	DT	Nebraska	6-4	305	90
32. Percy Harvin*	WR	Florida	5-10¾	187	90

Obviously a lot of factors are at work here, and I am not even sure how effective of a pro Percy Harvin will be, but how much fun would it be to have him and Chris Johnson on the field at the same time?

DT if Albert leaves

If not, I am not really sure.

Please

say Wr… Just once

by Big Bad Bulluck on Dec 30, 2008 12:12 AM CST reply actions 0 recs

You can rest assured

that I will never predict a WR in 1st round again.

Ladies and gentlemen, your next Tennessee Titan is...

…Terrence Cody, DT, Alabama. At 6’4" and 375 lbs, he’ll be perfect for the Titans.

I was thinking

The exact same thing. Especially if we don’t sign Big Al.

If we do sign AH tho, I would expect us to go best available. Or maybe CB.

IMHO Terrence Cody might be the best available, given the Titans scheme.

Alabama’s defense was pretty damned good this year—probably at least as good as UT’s was back when Haynesworth and Henderson played next to each other. Given a few years in Titan blue, it’s not hard to imagine Cody becoming at least close to what Big Al is now.

If he does anything at all at the combines he will go significantly higher than 24. People are loving the DTs right now (defensive tackles not delirium tremens).

Good point.

Agreed

No way Mount Cody slides to us, and we don’t trade up.

Let's just hope he's not a cheater like most Alabama players

Including a certain projected number 1 pick.

I think this list is incorrect

I don’t think Cody is coming out this year. He could, obviously, and if he got to us then Holy Sh!t, but I don’t think he’s entering the draft.

If I hit a hole-in-one on this grand slam the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

Come on...

We are gonna get Albert to stay…

And at pick 32 WR is the likely choice as people are afraid to pick them high anymore. Donnie Avery did well, as did Desean Jackson.

Your optimism is awesome!

Thanks You!

The Titans deserve some optimism after this season…

I got a fun game!

Let’s predict how bad Detroit, Dallas and Washington F up their drafts! That should be a good time!

USC

Just draft any defensive player from USC and we will be good to go….

REDICULOUS

Umm.. I don’t know what this guy is thinking, but there’s NO way Michael Oher slips to 23 (???!!!!) Unreal – This guy is a top 5 pick. . . and could slip to the top 10. . . but anyone who has watched SEC football knows what he can do. Read “The Blind Side” . . .

by kazukirecords on Dec 31, 2008 2:03 PM CST reply actions 0 recs

THE PICK

Peria Jerry of Ole Miss. . . this guy isn’t being talked about but will end up in the 1st round somewhere – PLAYS like Big Albert . . . Monster DTackle and we know how much Fish loves badass D linemen
