    1. Cutler - This means we traded down to 7 and hopefully added a couple more picks as well. We can go Cooper/Shelton/Beasley/Collins/etc right here and with the added picks can really start building a team. We also acquire a vet QB that will compete with Mett and who knows with the right free agency signings and a good draft we could take advantage of the weak AFCS and knock on the door for a Wild Card spot.

    2. Mariota - Winston is almost a lock for #1 at this point. I'm going Mariota over Mett because I have just as many questions about him as I do Mariota. If we stick with Mett I can see us going 6-10 and Mett out for half the season. We'll be right back in the same situation but in a tougher spot. Mariota will at least bring some excitement and energy back. He actually has the talent (Young) and the intangibles (Locker). Great coaches adapt to their players, not the other way around.

    3. Mett- Build talent around Mett and upgrade the defense. Pray he continues to develop and can actually stay healthy. If he can prove himself then that means we don't have to spend another 1st round pick on a QB. The Titans have a ton of needs, eliminating one position from the needs list for at least a year is pretty big.

    yep, then I'd swing a deal for Jordan Matthews :). I'm not big on Foles for some reason?

    I'd take Cutler over him if available

    where's your picks?

    I'm assuming we do the following:

    1) Address the LG, RT, C spots with quality additions AND they jell. Schwenke isn't the answer and obviously neither is Levitre.
    2) Add a legitimate downfield and red zone WR threat.

    Without that we are a one dimensional offense, which would raise the value of Winston and Mariota.

    So if above occurs my order would be:

    1) Mariota
    2) Mett
    3) Winston

    Absolute no to Cutler (older, health issues, not well liked by team mates).

    Mariota is Locker-like EXCEPT his throwing accuracy is good and he is faster. Winston appears NFL ready but I don't trust him to be a professional with his past proclivity for hijinx and ALL the p*ssy that will be thrown at him as an NFL QB. I'm perfectly OK with Mett but I strongly support trading the #2 pick OR taking Mariota with that pick and attempting a post-pick trade (which I estimate is a 98% certainty that Jets/Rams/Browns/Eagles would trade for a good albeit not blockbuster price). If our price isn't met, then I have NO problem letting Mariota and Mett compete.

    We HAVE to have a franchise QB. We aren't going anywhere next year. Let's land/develop the franchise QB FIRST and build around him. Is it Mett? Could be but letting him and Mariota compete and further each's development will only help the long term stability/health of the team. We can always trade the loser of the competition next year if appears strong.

    My list is the same. There's some weird hate for Mariota around here. He's a project, certainly, but his upside is basically Aaron Rodgers.

    I know the Titans have swung and missed (badly) on some guys, but that doesn't mean you should stop swinging.

    RSB wins.

    I'd rather take Sean Mannion in the 6th round. I think ultimately our depth chart will be:

    Mettenberger - Whitehurst - Mannion

    It's simple. If Winston is available we take him. If not, we go a different direction and stick with Mett for another year.

    Whiz will ride Mett's arm to a 7-9 record in 2015. We'll then find our QBOTF and make Mett #2.
