6 months ago: Auburn defensive tackle Sen'Derrick Marks answers questions in Nashville, Tenn., Sunday, April 26, 2009, after he was picked as the Tennessee Titans No. 2 draft pick. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey)

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Terry McCormick takes a look at each of our 11 draft picks and the roles they'll be expected to fill early on and down the road for the Titans.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Bo Scaife's agent is a funny guy:

"To be honest with you, he decided to report and sign his tender in the hopes that something could be worked out long-term," Robinson said of Scaife. "He is the consummate team guy, and he wanted to work out with teammates and show his commitment to them."

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Well according to Jim Wyatt, Scaife decided to come back because he didn't like being away from his teammates, despite his agent's advice to stay in Denver as a negotiating tactic.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 So who will be this draft's 'poor man' pick who makes an impact on the Titans?  The staff of the Tennessean takes a gander at the options.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Ross Tucker gives obtuse grades for the draft, and lumps the Titans in with the 'Steady as She Goes' group that also features the Steelers, Pats and Colts.

Tennessee_titans_30x21 Joe Biddle is a friggin' rebel.  That's the kind of edgy, original thinking we need in this country.  Bravo for having the courage to take a stand, sir.  (The fact that this article is running now, and not two years ago is a case study in why newspapers are dying).

Tennessee_titans_30x21 UT running back Arian Foster signed a free agent deal with the Texans, but it's too bad that he won't get the chance to fumble for them because I'll lay $20 that Jeremiah Johnson (from Oregon) wins that spot.

and honestly

the UT shot was just a bonus… I really wanted to plug my boy Johnson. I met him several times this offseason and he was a very humble, nice guy. You couldn’t help but root for him after you meet him a few times.

But they can use more than one RB over in Houston, can't they?

I mean, they actually still have Chris Brown in the mix, officially, no? Seems to me like they need both a short yardage back AND a #3. So, bottom line, we may yet see Foster fumbling again someday in Tennessee.

I can see it now...

Chris Brown and Foster in the same backfield; Brown tweaks a hamstring picking up a goal line fumble by Foster.

Poor Joe

I’m not quite sure how the man still has a job. I figured the Tennessean would be broke from handing out “I Beat Biddle” bumper stickers to every 2 yr old in the state by now……..

The PAIN TRAIN is comin baby!
