    1.08 - Jake Locker, QB, Washington.

    2.07 - Bruce Carter, OLB, UNC.

    3.13 - Rodney Hudson, C/G, Florida State.

    4.12 - Terrell McClain, DT, South Florida.

    4.33 - Greg Romeus, DE, Pittsburgh.

    5.11 - Stephen Burton, WR, West Texas A&M.

    6.10 - Henry Hynoski, FB, Pittsburgh.

    7.09 - Chris Prosinski, FS, Wyoming.

    7.48 - Darius Morris, G/OT, Temple.

    As much as I don't like Locker at eight, I could happily live with this draft. At the end of the day, I'm going to support whatever the Titans do, what do you think of a Locker at eight draft look?

    As much as I love Carter I think there is a legitimate chance he falls into round 3 w/ his ACL issues. I think our team needs go 1. QB 2. DT so I'd rather see us take Paea in round 2 over any other player.

    That being said this mock answers pretty much all of our needs so I'd be okay with it playing out that way on draft day.

    If we take Locker at 8 I want either Carter or Paea, preferably Paea in the second round.

    Yeah, I understand what you're saying about Carter but Paea has even more injury concerns in my book. Paea just cannot stay healthy, plus he's coming off a minor tear in his knee. I would be happy with him I suppose at the top of the 2nd, but I think getting a OLB that can cover a TE is a bigger need.

    Hey who is that FB? First time I've seen us taking a FB in the draft.

    I love this guy, here is a video.

    Sarge is 31 and we need to start grooming a new FB to help CJ get going again.

    FBs don't really need grooming...

    Thanks for the insightful input. Does "learn the offense" sound better to you?

    Not sure the Titans can afford to groom/teach the offense to (however you want to describe it) a FB. Do you really expect the Titans to carry multiple FBs on the roster? The team can get Hall's replacement when Hall is ready to hang 'em up.
