    We have a bunch of good vets with expiring contracts in 2019, so next year's draft would be the time to look for their replacements

    Heavy D and add some Guard depth or upgrades

    Edit: forgot about Corey Levin

    No doubt man...I say grab an edge rusher/ILB if one of these guys don't work out

    With a mostly new secondary, we could be surprised by the defense. The guys up front are pretty good as it is...if the guys in the secondary can even be decent, that's a huge upgrade.

    Of course, D heavy would make sense next draft anyway, but I'm not counting them out just yet.

    I think the taste of a winning season last year should really do wonders for the guys that have been here through the 2-3 win seasons. We actually have a reason to be optimistic and excited about Titans football!

    For sure man! I am pumped for this season...we improved our Defense and especially our already productive offense. We actually have speed and spark now for the first time in quite a while!

    I could see a top guard being drafted in a year or 2. I wouldn't be mad at all if the O is as good on the field as it looks on paper and D heavy the rest of the draft.

    LT and RT could be filled for a long, long time if things go right...it would be great to throw a really good G in there too at some point.

    Agreed. The FO has heavily invest in offense early lately, but this is a young offense with tremendous upside. As the team is, this year should be very competitive and exciting. Another off season and JR will have this team poised for a SB push. Not to say they shouldn't this year, that should always be the goal. But I'd be content with making the playoffs and getting a W in January this year.

    I was upset they didn't pick up more D in the 3rd round. But thinking about it, they really did revamp the secondary. Maybe not exactly as I'd of wanted, but the top 2 CBs weren't even on this roster last year, and should be significant upgrades to what was on the team last year. The defense really could surprised people, especially by mid-season.

    Jackson v Davis will be a fun rookie battle to watch too.

    That's what I'm thinking, we have decent depth guys but a 2nd round G like Forrest Lamp would be nice to go with Lewan and Conklin

    Just imagine if Warmack was actually the player he was hyped to be. The line would have been in really good shape right now. Instead, Warmack getting hurt was a plus since his replacement is better.

    Could use some upgrades at G but the line played better last season than they have in a long time. Nice for it not to be a weak spot any more.
