oldschool Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Not true Prag. if the Titans take a 2nd round QB next year you better believe he's the QBOF. I think Mettenberger has done enough to be in the conversation but he's got this year to show he's worthy of competing for the spot next year. if the Titans don't draft a QB next yearn then it will speak volumes to what the team thinks of Mettenberger. Needless to say this scenario only applies if Locker is gone which I fully expect will be the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pragidealist Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 No you can't afford to invest a one if you think you have the guy on your roster. You only take a QB at #1 if you don't think you have your franchise QB on the roster. If they take a 1 next year it'll mean that they have no future plans with Mettenberger. Which would floor me. Maybe - 1 vs 2 vs 3 depends a lot on who is there. 1 would likely mean bad things for met. 2 or 3 - *shrugs*. It gets murkier. The point is I don't expect any FO to know they have a franchise qb until they see them adapt to the reality and struggled of live bullets. Unless locker goes down early - I doubt Mett gets that. Which means qb becomes a question mark and need going into 2015 season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - when we start to get into whether a 1 or 2 or 3 equates doom for Mett then er are getting into nuance that is probably too situation specific to talk generalities. Think we are on the same page except for Lockers chances - which is cool. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know until you give the guy a chance. You don't think that Mettenberger has shown that he's worth a look? Why would you waste a draft pick on a position that requires one player when you have a guy on your roster that you feel can handle the job and you have so many holes on defense?

IsntLifeFunny Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 If being the operative word. I don't think you are nuts for believing in Mettenberger. I think you are nuts for being so sure about it. Not hating, I just think it's funny that Reo liked your post when all he does is speak in absolutes.

IsntLifeFunny Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Yes but the difference is when you just invested a 1 you cannot then invest another 1 the following year. When you've invested a 6th then you can afford to invest a one or two the following year. None of that has changed with three preseason games. The only difference is that we could now reasonably expect Mett to win that battle if it's only a 2 or 3. It's a great position for the Titans, still an up hill battle for Mett but he's made the best of every opportunity and has dramatically increased his chances of success. He just still has a long way to go lol not this drudgery again. Mett has outplayed every, let me repeat, every rookie QB. Bortles is the only rookie in the conversation. I don't care if he takes another snap this year, we are not drafting a QB high next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
