SUMMARY: Cortland Finnegan, a seventh-round draft pick out of Samford, won a training camp competition to be the third CB in the nickel package. In doing so, he brings 4.33 speed to a position the Titans often use in pressure packages to blitz. Finnegan already has two sacks to his credit after three games. "Cortland's very quick and he's instinctive and he can dip and he can work his way to the quarterback," Titans coach Jeff Fisher said. "That's helped him. I feel like he's going to be a pretty good player. He's still learning; he's got a lot to learn, but he's learning on the run and he's learned from his mistakes and has been productive for us."

who was the NB before him??

was it Fuller?

Woolfolk?

I think it was Fuller.

Fuller was before he got hurt. Then I think it was Waddell.

A positive!!! :grrhee:

I've kinda wondered if the guy could replace LT :bump:

Anyone know what LT's 40 speed is?

on some plays i wonder if you could use a sundial.

Atleast he still isn't running his like Ted Washington.

Hill is faster than Finnegan, but not by much.... Lamont looks like he's more of a Strong Safety, he doesn't have great speed at all.

Or tackling ability. Or the ability to take good angles in pursuit. Or good football instincts in general. :banned:

its sad that I knew what you meant...lol

hill looks like he's running in slow motion when he's in pursuit. he must be one of those track guys, because finnegan looks much faster in game speed.

Finnegan, so far, is a bright spot on a dismal team.

His blitz's & sacks remind me of when Rod Woodson & Carnell Lake used to blindside the EFF out of Warren Moon back in the day. It seemed like every time the Steelers & Oilers hooked up in the late 80's/early 90's, either Lake or Woodson planted Moon in the ground. I hated it, but Cortland's hits remind me of that. Not bad for a rookie.

He hits hard.


Oooh, I like that.

& as much of a moron as T.O. is, he'll prolly shred our crappy deep backs (namely #'s 21 & 28) for five TD's. :rolleyes:

LaMont looks like he could make a good ref one day, because he's always a step slow and he's usually running down the field WITH the guy instead of AFTER him

FLAVOR OF
THE WEAK.<--- :wink2:

IN WEEK 6 HE'S THE ANTI-CHRIS...TOPHER REYHILLNALD:makefun2:

Bulluck only is 2nd in the LEAUGE in tackling, youre right, lets trade or sit or cut him

Anyone know what LT's 40 speed is?

Must be pretty good. He's always running people down from behind.:rolleyes:

... They know he's chasing, the opposition doesn't run hard cause even if he catches up it's not like Thompson's gonna actually tackle them... they're not worried.

They don't want to show him up too much, then somebody else might start. :banned:

Bulluck only is 2nd in the LEAUGE in tackling, youre right, lets trade or sit or cut him:whoop:
I was talking about all the fan rah rah. These posters go all gooey :whoop: over a player for a couple of weeks and then they torch him when they find a new shiny dime to hold up. I wasn't ripping on Bulluck so much as I was ripping on all of us. :whoop: Fisher is god! Fisher stinks. Reynaldo is the greatest thing ever! Reynaldo blows! :yes:

lets bring back Volek so we can rehash all of that again :duckrun:

Lamont Thompson couldn't carry Billy Voleks jock strap. Volek is the best QB in the NFL yet to take a snap in 2006 and everyone knows it. The only perosn Billy Volek fears is Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris just wondered what Billy Volek would look like with a bolt on his head and it was just lucky for Billy Volek he was traded to San Diego or else only Chuck knows what would have happened.

Lamont Thompson.... Billy Volek.... Chuck Norris

Ummm... Which of these names is not like the others?

I hope that's the last time I ever see those three in the same sentence.:grrhee:

lamont thompson doesnt belong in the same sentence with chuck norris.

Reynaldo is the greatest thing ever! Reynaldo blows! :yes:

Everyone has their love and hate for certain religions. :yes:

lamont thompson doesnt belong in the same sentence with chuck norris.

Exactly!!!!

and... ?

Neither does Billy Volek!

Neither does Billy Volek!


you are right..he is above Chucky poo :ha:

the only reason any of our defensive backs shine is because some receiver lit them up.....
