This year, if you want Chris Johnson, fine.  I like him.  I think he's a great addition. He was one of our best picks in recent memory, but trade down.  If Johnson goes, you can replace him with Charles or Slaton in the third or even someone undrafted like Anthony Aldridge at UH.

Round Two, what do you think they were doing sitting there and watching a bunch of players I know they loved get snatched up.  Hmmm, I'll tell you what their board looked like at pick 16 in round two: 1. Desean Jackson, 2. Limas Sweed, 3. Malcolm Kelly, 4. Trevor Laws, 5. Quentin Groves, 6. Calais Campbell, 7. Fred Davis and no 8.  They think they are in great shape, then.....BOOM.  Laws goes at 16 to PHilly.  Davis at 17 to Wash.  Dsean at 18 to Philly.  Campbell at 19.  Kelly at 20.  Groves at 21.  And the real kick in the junk....Sweed at 22.  

Poor Titans are left with no one to choose.  Why?  Because they sat on their asses again.  I can promise you they didn't have Jason Jones above any of the players they watched go.  The Titans don't make moves, they take their medicine.

Round Three, I'm also willing to bet they had Craig Stevens ranked below Pat Sims (who went at 14) Doucet (18) Morgan (19) Zuttah (20) and Douglas (21).

Round Four, someone explain trading up for a HUGE reach.  The only time the Titans move up is to take a deeep sleeeper DE/OLB!  What?  Why not move up in two or three?  Who drafting after them was going to Pick Hayes?  Cleveland with their first pick of the draft ?

Hawkins is great.  I'm excited he was there.  I have no idea who Stanford Kegler is.

Round Five could have been Marcus Howard, Letroy Guion DT, Carlton Powell DT, or Dmario Pressley DT.  But we traded it away to move up.

Should I continue to 2007?  
Round One:  trade back if you want griffin, up if you want someone else.
Round Two: trade back, who else is gonna grab Henry? there were two RBs taken in the next 50 picks: Green Bay went with Brandon Jackson and Miami went with Lorenzo Booker.  Just because scouts love Henry doesn't mean they should reach a round.
Round Three: again, I'm sure Paul Williams wasn't their top WR.  Why not move and get someone to fill your biggest need?

The Titans talent evaluation we don't know enough about.  I agree.  But the way the franchise gets from a player it likes to a player it drafts is laughable.

My

As Titans fans, it is our right to hold their feet to the fire.

I keep pounding the table on these boards to remind people that Reinfeldt's first Draft, last year, continues to grade in the 'D' range, a full season later.  The guy strikes me as a good "company" guy.  If we walk into this season with 10-20 million in excess cap space, with a team that has reasonable odds of winning 9 games, then he'll have done his job, from the perspective of profitability.  That extra money goes straight into Adams pocket.  Now, you might argue that Adams has proven that he was willing to spend up to the cap space, as evidenced by prior years, but back then the cap was much lower.  Far be it for me to make the outright accusation, but just to sugggest that people consider the motivation behind entering a season with excess cap space, when guys like Michael Turner were available in Free Agency for those willing to spend.

Motivations aside, these two have aligned their playing philosophies...  Smash-mouth football, where the game is won at the line of scrimmage.  In such a setup, the QB is an afterthought, a "game manager", that horrible term used to describe a mediocre QB whose sole purpose is to not lose the game.

We know our receivers.  They are well below average.  Chance of us having a breakout receivers?  How, who?  Ealy, Hawkins?  At what point does this FO decide that the passing game is worth some investment?

You can be as tired as you want by fans who act disappointed that Vince did not get his weapons...  but I just want to point out that the reason they are disappointed is because Reinfeldt promised that it was a priority to upgrade the receiving corps.  The only move that will impact this year in a potentially major way is the Crumpler signing.    The *sshole lied to us, and now we'll probably have to sit through another season of Vince throwing balls that bounce off our brick-handed receivers while his confidence continues to erode.

They were not wrong to skip a WR in the first.  They were decidedly wrong to reach for a DL in the 2nd when many of the best receivers were still available.  I can only imagine how p!ssed off Vince Young is right now.

I'm sorry Vince.  If I could separate and catch passes for you, I would.  Sorry that your talent is being wasted with a bunch of scrub WRs.  I hope Ealy works out for you.  Sorry you can't take off and run anymore because safeties dont respect the deep threat.  Indy 2006 was fun.  

Goodbye mcm.  Have fun saying 6000 times that there are some interesting vet wide outs we could deal for this off season.  Then have fun saying 6000 times that the Front Office knows best--they're professionals.

iam telling you it was all chows fault. i dont think the players had much respect for him as far as wanting to preform for the guy. that was a mistake and also chris henery seems to be a mistake also.
it was also a fluke to only score so few passing touchdowns last year it wont happen again it was a fluke. dinger is not going to be up in the box attempting to call plays . hes going to be down in brandon jones face wondering why he cant seem to catch a easy ball late in the game to pull it in for the win.
i think they are going to go back to old school pass to the tightends and run the ball like they did with mcnair back when dinger was with us. this new guy johnson seems a really good fit to their scheem. they want to run the plays for shorter gains instaed of the long ball. cus in my opinion vince cant seem to hit the long ball anyway so whats the point of drafting a fast reciver to run down the field if the ball is 10 yards of target. they want to keep it a short passing game to the tightends and dump it off to johnson and hope he breaks a big one and also run the ball with lendale. thats going to be the recipe for success in their minds.
its not rocket sicence if they draft another tightend, pass on a wide reciver and get johnson who can catch short passes and take it to the house. they are setting themselves up for ball control and time of possesion cus they want to keep the ball out of mannings hands and the best way todo that is run and make short passes move the ball down the firld and hopefully score this time around.

Why dont yall just sit back, shut up, and wait to see what happens with these picks(including 2007). It is way to early to bash any of these selections. We are not able to see exactly what the coaches and scouts are able to. So relax and in 2 years or so, you can talk some smack.!
