Who do you think is the most impressive rookie thus far?

I think that we can all agree that it appears we have a very good draft class this year, but who do you think will turn out to be our "gem"? Kenny Britt, Jared Cook, Ryan Mouton, and SenDerrick Marks have all shown flashes of greatness but I think that the guy I am most enamored with is Javon Ringer. Because he only stands 5'9 at 205 pounds, I like many people, underestimated how well he could do in the NFL and thought he would just be an average back. But after reading about the way he practices and the way he has performed this preseason I am now a believer.

So who is everyone most impressed with and why?

Jared Cook

He is big and fast. Actually ran a faster 40 than Kenny Britt. I think he’s gonna have a great year for the Titans.

Cook is who i'll be watching

If only because he is more likely to get time on the field than Ringer.

Im going to say Ringer

for the preseason so far, Cook is awesome and he’s going to be one of the best. but is Ringer shows what he need to we’ll have Smash, Dash and Bash and you heard it here lol. also, Kenny had a great game against tampa and im looking forward to see more.

Que Where?!?!

Ringer has been the most "impressive"..

but im definately putting my stock in Cook…though i have yet to see much i can complain about with Britt

Right now, I would say Ringer, he’s gonna be a great back for us in a year or two. Long term, I would say Cook, I’m pretty sure he’s gonna start next year b/c Scaife is gonna ask for way too much. Can you say Antonio Gates?

I'm going to say Kenny Britt

Though he has had his share and probably someone elses half of injury’s during training camp and preseason, I’m going on a limb to say that he will be the most productive rookie WR in the whole draft class. With Gage healthy and Washington stretching the field I would say that is going to open up the middle just a bit more than it did last season. I expect around 60 catches for Britt and around 750-800 yards which WILL be good enough to get a starting job next season. So 12-13 Yards per catch is my prediction.

I'm going with Cook

The Titans did their homework on this guy. He should create so many matchup problems for opposing defenses. He has been impressive in camp and should be a big part of the Titans offense this season.
I’d throw Ringer’s name out there too because he has made some big plays and he just looks like a football player…

Cooks great but I think Ringer will steal the show

I dont doubt for one minute that Cook of going to be a huge redzone threat this year. With his size and ability he should be able to do great things for the Titans this year. However, after watching Ringer more and more I am gonna have to stick with him. I figured that the only way he is gonna get any serious playing time is if LW or CJ get injured. Thats when the fireworks are gonna start. He so small and quick and can turn on a dime, he kinda reminds me of MJD. I wouldnt be supprised to see him stealing some of LW playing time later on in the season if he keeps producing the way he has so far…..since LW lost all that weight this offseason I do not think he will be as big of a goal line threat as he was last year

LenDale's contract situation

Yea, Ringer could turn out to be a stud. If he has a solid season, and proves he can be reliable with the football, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if the Titans part ways with LenDale when his contract expires at the end of this season.
