    Johnson is buried behind guys who are good. I could see him replacing Jones or Woods next year. Or replacing Jones and Jones replacing Woods.

    The article came out because the question (about Dodd) was asked at a press conference that just happened. Lol. I don't think it has anything to do with the draft.

    It is worrisome that he still has foot pain after all this time... But Mularkey did say he is close to being 100%. Hard to tell if he'll ever be 100% or if the pain is a sign that the foot will never be right.

    Then why was an article not written/published about every question asked? It is odd it's newsworthy the day before the draft.

    And that foot will never be 100%. It resulted from a chronic inability of his foot structure to handle the stresses being placed upon it. MUCH different from an acute injury. Our med team Evals will be looking much closer at X-rays and exams this year. It was a huge gaffe to have not picked up on that especially with a #33 overall pick.

    The article from titansonline is "Hot Topics From todays Press Conference" and they did cover several questions that were asked. The Tennessean apparently just wanted to write an article about the Dodd question. That doesn't mean they know what's going to happen in the draft.

    You could be right about the injury but I would think that if they thought there was no way he could ever play that one of these doctors would tell him to give up now, his career is over.

    I know many have been critical of Dodd and the pick, myself included, but it's his 2nd year. I'll hold off until after next year (year 3). If he's done nothing by then, time to move on from him.

    CB Mackenzie Alexander, WR Shepard or WR Thomas with one of those picks would have been better options. But hindsight is 20-20.

    I'm trying not to freak over this report but it's a real concern.
