    The video would have leveraged them out of getting full value on the 1 overall

    Do we consider Myles Jack in the 2nd if he is still there? Wondering how bad his injury is. Was one of the top rated players over all prior to the draft just behind Tunsil.

    I imagine we could let him heal up for a year.

    I hope you aren't talking to me, because I am constantly one of the biggest pessimists on this board. I don't even really consider myself that much of a football fan anymore.

    Love this pick. I don't care what all the complainers think. This fills a significant need and will keep Marcus upright. Great job JR.

    Point being, if Mariota is on the sidelines nursing an injury because he's getting pounded, he's not making plays.

    DEs are often taken early in the first. I don't buy into the idea a team can ignore top talent at OT anymore and hope to keep their franchise QBs on the field.

    Which offensive playmakers do you feel the Titans missed out on by going OT? I didn't see it. I was tempted by Hargreaves but I didn't any difference-makers more important than keeping Mariota healthy.

    He looks just like Lewan minus the talking....which I believe is a good thing.

    Murray is gonna have a good year who's playing left guard?

    Well the last David Stewart was a 4rd pick.

    Not a fan of the trade. Gave up too much for a position that's hard to grade. With Tunsil falling we should of stayed put or move just a couple spots to 11 or 13. Still could of had one or the other.

    Weed?! Really? That wouldn't deter me
