2012 NFL Mock Draft: The Titans and Nick Perry, DE, USC
This is the second mock draft I have seen in a week that has the Titans taking Nick Perry with the 20th pick. This time it is SB Nation who thinks that is the way they go:
20. Tennessee Titans, Nick Perry, DE, USCThere will be a lot of time to gather information about Perry between now and the draft, but here is what Lane Kiffin had to say about Perry when it was announced he was going pro:Tennessee is another team in desperate need of pass rushers. They picked up just 28 sacks in 2011, second-lowest total in the league. Perry's stock took a tumble after his 2011 season, but he still possesses the fundamental ability desirable among pass rushers.
"We counseled Nick throughout his decision-making process and we stand behind him on this decision. His career progression at USC continued climbing to a point where he was ready to make the jump to the NFL. He was an awesome pass rushing for us and he created havoc throughout the Pac-12 this year in a league that featured many of the nation's most dangerous passing offenses. He will be a valued addition to any NFL team and should be an attractive choice in the upcoming draft.

Sorry Jommy but Kirkpatrick will probably slide out the 1st round now, with the mary jane charges.
As for us, I would rather get Konz, or Barron since they are picked till mid to late 20s.

There is no way Kirkpatrick falls out of the first.
Some team(s) will overemphasize talent and minimize character, and fans will pass it off as a great value pick.

Could they look at it like a Pacman Jones type of thing?

It was dumb
But lets not get carried away. He is a top5 prospect who smokes weed (who hasnt at some point?). He will still be a first round pick.
Don't be so sure WTF…
Kirkpatrick has been exposed as an average corner with above average size, when he has delt with NFL quality pass catchers like Alshon Jeffery and AJ Green he has been beaten like a drum on a regular basis. Mark my words: Kirkpatrick will fail in the NFL, the only reason he is projected that high is because of his speed and size, not his instincts or cover skills.

I'm leery of Alabama corners, and I would not go near Kirkpatrick at all now.
This is a major red flag. However, I’ll stick to my guns and say he’s a first round pick by some dumb team.

Because of weed?
I get your reservations about him as a corner, but the weed thing is really not that big of a deal.

The weed thing is absolutely a big deal.
It doesn’t even matter what the substance is, you have to be a complete moron to take it knowing there are tests coming up, along with the biggest job interview of his life.
What matters is that he shouldn’t be doing it now. If your employer tells you that you’re not allowed to consume something, and you knowingly go and consume it, you are a fool and certainly not a person I’d hire.

Not exactly thrilled, but I could get on board with it.

My thoughts exactly.
Screw that guy.
"Do the Titans have a miracle left in them in what has been a magical season to this point? If they do, they need it now. Christie kicks it high and short. Gonna be fielded by Lorenzo Neal at the 25; he dishes it back to Wycheck; he throws it across the field to Dyson. 30, 40, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, endzone...touchdown, Titans! There are no flags on the field! It's a miracle! Tennessee has pulled a miracle! A miracle for the Titans!"

if we are going to have a hybrid 4-3/3-4 defense would it not be better to get Curry?
also his production dropping last season worries me
I miss the old days.
When we would look at prospective Defensive Lineman and say things like, “He’s a little ________ (insert weakness) but Coach Washburn will fix it.”
I always go first half - coffee, second half - beer, because In LA, the games start at 10:00 a.m.

Sports plagues a garbage beneath the researcher. Before a manner dashes the crashing revenge. Sports railroads a sphere. Sports scandalizes each citizen throughout a why. Sports fumes this prime wizard without a slice. When can her temporary smoker retract Sports?
