Tennessee Titans News Links: Competition Improves All

The Titans went into this offseason with a goal, to solidify the offensive line, to beef up the d line, to add an edge to the secondary, and to create competition throughout the roster. For the most part, they've done all of these things. If we wanted to really get nitpicky we could say we haven't added that real "pass rusher" but the organization might not feel like thats a real need.

In the draft the Titans added Brian Schwenke and Justin Hunter to positions that seemed relatively set. Both of them could be starters day one, and they'll push their teammates to be better.

Paul Kuharsky gives each team in the AFC South some work left to do this offseason. He says the Titans need to churn up the pass rush. Williams' agressive blitzing style should do this and it will include our LBs and DBs, not just the defensive line.

What team does Brian Schwenke pick when he plays Madden? The Titans of course. He loves pounding the ball with Chris Johnson. I think Schwenke is gonna be a fan favorite for sure.

Justin Hunter talks about being drafted by the Titans. He seems like a genuinely good kid. Hunter, Britt, Washington, Walker, TT, and Wright will be fun to watch in the pass game this year.

Ruston and Munch give a wrap up of the draft. They say they've done what they planned on.

Titan Sized gives an overview of the Titans draft class.

PK says that Khalid Wooten's best quality is his speed. An interesting note on Wooten is that he can return punts and kicks. Will he be in the mix for that position for the Titans? Time will tell, but it's at least something to keep watch for.

Fanspeak gives us a draft grade. They gave us a B overall and an A+ for Warmack.

The rebuild is over ladies and gents and it's time for the Titans to get to work. I cannot wait for the season to start. Instead of a quote today, it'll be a discussion question. What was your favorite play or memory last year and how does it give you hope for the future. There are two such instances for me. One, in the New England game Jake is being held onto by a defender (Chandler Jones) and yet on the move he throws a strike to Nate who runs it in for a TD. The other instance was in the Miami game where our trio of future star linebackers each got an interception. Whats your favorite memory? Also, who are you looking forward to watching most on this team next year?
