Tennessee Titans Daily Links: Mobile Is Neither Moveable, Nor A Sculpture With Motion... Discuss Edition

Terry McCormick reports on Ruston Webster at the Senior Bowl. At this rate I expect the next story in the Tennessean and City Paper to be which meat-n-three joint Webster likes in Mobile.
Paul K recaps the departure of Dave McGinnis and the hiring of Keith Millard.
This popped up for a second last year, but Mike Munchak's cousin, AJ Munchak, has been convicted in a political corruption case back in Pennsylvania. AJ, who could face 93 years in jail and $2 million in fines, might have been drug down by the other guy who was convicted of much stiffer charges. Mike Munchak was one of several people to send letters of support to the court asking for leniency in sentencing.
David Boclair wonders if the prospect of the Rams moving to L.A. was a pro, not a con, when it came to Fisher picking St. Louis over Miami.
The league's uniform production being taken over by Nike in April, there's a lot of concern that they'll cartoon-up the uniforms in the way they have college unis. The NFL has now come out and tempered some of that speculation, but that statement could be a savvy move to try and prop up jersey sales for the next few months. Many fans will surely be holding off from buying jerseys if they think a bunch of them will be changing soon.
Tim Hauck, who was a defensive assistant under the Fisher regime and out of the league last year, has landed in Cleveland as their new secondary coach.
Terrell Suggs called Skip Bayless by his Christian name on ESPN. It would only be funnier if Suggs had said it with a little less anger, but what Skip was doing is what gives reporters a bad reputation with players, and a big part of the reason Bayless wouldn't be welcomed in many locker rooms in any sport any more.
SportsFans.org catches you up on the fight to end TV blackouts by sports leagues. It's actually making surprisingly good progress, but my bet is that the FCC will uphold it.

meh, I got no beef with Selig. or really any of the commissioners to be honest.
we're gonna skate to one song and one song only.
I think Selig has sat back and let his game lose lots of fans.
Stern just came off a lockout that still did not create more equality and parity for small market teams.
Bettman has ripped teams from Canada, expand more into the States and see his precious expansion teams lose millions for years.

He also took them away.
Them leaving wasn’t completely on Bettman, considering Canada’s economy at the time, a lack of arena, and changing NHL economics, but it still pains me to see how hard he is fighting for some teams like Phoenix, but yet didn’t fight for Atlanta.
I think he’s done some nice things, and bringing the Jets back was one of them. He also created a better economic landscape, but Goodell is still far better.

I'm not disagreeing with you
In fact, I absolutely agree with you. The double standard certainly perplexes me…
However, given the result (ThrashersJets back to Winnepeg), I was trying to gauge your bias, or lack thereof.

He's supposedly played everywhere for the Gamecocks this year
I like him at 20 if he falls that far. UGA CB Brandon Boykin is making himself some money too. I’d love to see him at 52.

I watched his game against Auburn and saw him line up
at DT, DE, OLB, and MLB. I love the versatility, but the kid looks like a ‘tweener to me. He’s not playing DE here, Gray wants bigger guys- but he’s also not a true linebacker because I question his coverage skills.

Speaking of versatile players, Cordy Glenn is having a great practice
he’s stoned all the big time pass rushers (Ingram, Coples, and Upshaw) for the most part. I counted only one loss in 1 on 1s. He’s another guy I like at 20

OT: Ravens DC allegedly to become Colts' HC
Posted in the open-thread as well, but figured this is the happening place today. It’s PFT quoting a source so take it with a grain of salt…
IF this is true, I think that’s fantastic news for us. That defense is undersized for a 4-3 and has been running that “Tampa 2” for years, is he going to change it to a 3-4? If so, that’s going to require virtually a complete overhaul of their defense.
Secondly, I know Andrew Luck is a one-of-a-kind talent but there is something to be said for coaching still I think. Having a defensive-minded head coach certainly won’t hurt him, but his OC and QB coaches are going to be key.

I don't really fear this hire.
It makes me think the Colts are moving on without Manning even more. As much as I hate the fact they’ll have Luck, and as good as he is, it was Luck learning under Manning for a season or two that worried me most. Don’t see that happening now.

The other AFC South moves have been pretty good for us.
Jacksonville going with a very average hire. Colts going with someone with very little experience and a rookie GM. If Wade Phillips had left Houston this would have been the perfect offseason.
