Who classifies him in the second round oh the draft sites everyone looks at to see prospects names for the first time. How do we not know that he isn't high on the Titans draft board, was anyone talking about Chris Johnson in the first when the Titans drafted him. Thompson might be the kinda of guy we are looking for he is a run stopper occupying multiple defenders, allowing Casey and defense ends to go free. Poe stock is on the down fall because game tape is average, Brocker's has question marks, Still could be an option but looked different the second half of the season, and Cox stock is sky rocketing.
in my first mock this year i was the first one to call for thompson in the first round so i wouldnt be to shocked/mad if we did take him there as he is going to be a solid player...he has allowed one or two defensive ends become first/second round picks while being there because he is so dominate and takes on double teams ex:bowers

SMH...dude I was just giving you a reasoning as to why some would be opposed to it. Wasn't preaching to the choir. We all have our OWN idea as to who we THINK a guy is ranked. Us along with those draft sites (that I wasn't even referring to) are all OPINIONATED. So if someone on this forum thinks views your guy of choice to be a 2nd round guy...they're going to be more opposed to taking him in the 1st Wasn't knocking your opinion...
It wasn't so much directed to you but the other guy who made a huge deal about the Brandon Thompson picked, he's the kind of guy who makes his defensive ends shine.
