    Adoree Jackson is Pacman Jones without the posse and rap sheet.

    I am really wanting Williams and either Peppers/Lewis. Those two corners, can play some football.

    Definitely. Top notch cover skills and a fantastic return man.

    Peppers williams is where I'm at now. Just cautious on what position Peppers ends up at. Could be a nickel LB, S, or CB...

    I think he is way too small to play any type of LB.

    I could see him in a honey badger type of role though.

    Yeah. Obviously honey badger is great but I'm wary about drafting guys without defined positions in the first.

    But that athleticism almost makes up for it. We need it so badly. I'm on board at the moment.

    Peppers bears watching!!! Frankly, along with several others!

    Right now you'd be looking at him as a S who can play back, can play in the box, can attack going backwards or forwards and can cover RB's and TE's.

    Oh yeah...and he's a dynamic Punt returner!

    Not sure he'll become a Darren Lee type small LB hybrid S type but we'll see how big and fast he gets and what he does on the field. The real question is, how good is that CB!?

    I watched two Vanderbilt games that I had saved on my DVR last night and that Zach Cunningham kid looked like a stud. I am starting to think that he is going to be a mid round steal if he delcares this draft season.

    Really liking this draft. Should be a good one to have 2 first rounders. Definitely a lot of EDGE talent and defensive talent.

    Players to watch:
    WRs- Not the best class but these three players could make mid-first round picks depending on the combine and end of the year. Mike Williams, Corey Davis, Juju Smith-Schueter. I imagine one of these will be a Titan next year.

    EDGE- A fourth edge rusher could really make our pass rush come alive. I like Tim Williams and should be available at our mid round firsts. Also Carl Lawson, Barnett, Charles Harris. We're not gonna be close to the Garnett sweepstakes. Can never have enough pass rushers-- they are much harder to draft when you're in the playoffs so its best to load up on them now. Orakpo Morgan Dodd Williams sounds sickening. Not an edge player but Jonathan Allen is a monstrous talent who would be hard to pass on as well.

    CB- Desmond King will be a favorite but might be a little short... Probably fine though. CBs Tabor, Humphrey, White are all talented and worth watching. And of course Adoree Jackson is another playmaker. Would instantly fix our PR as well. Cordrea Tankersley has played well and has the 6'1 ideal frame.

    S- Jabrill Peppers is a playmaker. Just not sure what position he projects to. Either S or LB I think. Malik Hooper and Jamal Adams will both be first round picks. A&M homer but I like Justin Evans if hes there in the 3rd round :p.

    SOooo much talent in the first round of this draft. Especially at positions we need. Two draft picks will be amazing to have. Could see a lot of playoff teams trying to trade up for a pass rusher/RB/OT so we even might be able to trade down again...
