New Blog: Five For Howling - for Coyotes fans Bar-right-arrows



news and notes...

Just some things that I have seen/heard.

  1. The NFL will announce the schedule tomorrow.  I'm guessing the Titans get two MNF games, 1 home and 1 away.  I am hoping for a home Sunday Night.  I am one of the few people in the world that likes to listen to John Madden.
  2. They were talking on ESPN Radio Saturday about some website (maybe scoutsinc.com did a grading out of the 2005 NFL draft.  They say it takes a good 2 or 3 years to evaluate.  The Titans were graded fairly low at that time, but now have an A.  Not sure how...that was Adam Jones, Michael Roos (O.K., that may be why), Courtney Roby (go Indiana), Roydell Williams, Brandon Jones all going on day 1.  I don't think I would call it an A draft, but Roos was a great pick and I still like Roydell Williams' potential...unfortunately I bet his best years won't be as a Titan.  The Lions and Vikings both went from A's to F's in the grading.
  3.  Turn your head now Jimmy.... I guess talks for Adam Jones are heating up again.  I really hope the Titans either get a 3rd round pick for him or keep him.  If he doesn't want to be here....tough crap.  Shut up and play football, you signed your contract and you still owe us two years.....however I would be happy with a 4th rounder and a WR.
  4.  I am kind of hoping the Titans trade down if they aren't going to take a WR at 24.  I really think WR is where we need to go. However, the more I see of Dan Conner, the more I like (isn't he Roseanne's husband?)

on point 2
you forgot D. Stewart... getting 2 top-flight tackles in one draft helped a lot.

Here's the link for that 2005 Regrade...
it's ESPN INsider, so you'll most likely need a subscription:

I couldn't help but laugh at the last line:
"Throw in a few adequate pass-catchers, and this is a very solid effort by the Titans' front office."

These are the same guy who didn't put a single one of these guys in there top 64 receivers (deservedly so)... weird.

Yes
David Stewart is a mauler and my favorite Offensive linemen - Little more work and he is going to be much better than Roos. Can't wait to see the schedule tomorrow! I, too, enjoy listening to Madden.

Stewart....
I didn't realize that...I just looked up the entire draft:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_NFL_Draft

Bo Scaife and Reynaldo Hill also picked that year.

2005 Draft
Also considering we had 11 picks and 9 of which are still with the team is pretty good.
