Wilson earlier than expected=mid-late round 1? No I think Wilson earlier than is expected is more like 2nd round, maybe even early 2nd round. Who knows though, the late first and early 2nd are always muddled from a projection standpoint. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Could you imagine the results of Bill O'Brien running the Texans war room by himself at his kitchen table, the results would be glorious. On a serious note the GM's with a scouting background are going to have a big advantage this year especially if the NFL rules that teams can't assemble their essential staff together at the same location.

AussieTitanFan08 Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Just for fun running through a couple of possible draft scenarios for the Titans which one would you prefer. Didn't have us taking Gladney at #29 or Madubuike or Gallimore at #61 because that isn't realistic. Scenario 1 #29 Jaylon Johnson # 61 Jordan Elliot Scenario 2 #29 Ross Blacklock #61 Bryce Hall Scenario 3 #29 Kristian Fulton #61 Jordan Elliot Scenario 4 involves trading your 2021 2rd round pick to the Panthers to move up to pick #38 in the 2nd round. #29 Jaylon Johnson #38 Justin Madubuike Scenario 5 once again involves trading your 2021 2rd round pick to the Panthers to move up to pick #38 in the 2nd round #29 Jaylon Johnson #38 Neville Gallimore Scenario 6 involves trading your 2021 3rd round pick to the Jets to move up to pick #48in the 2nd round #29 Ross Blacklock #48 Noah Igbinoghene Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callidus Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 On 3/31/2020 at 9:54 AM, SuperTitanic said: At least Vrabel had the right idea during his inaugural season in holding four total draft picks in this day and age of NFL football. The player average of success (making a significant impact for the franchise in the long term) during the past fifteen years in regard to drafted players from the 5th round and higher is a mere 9%. Considering the amount of money saved and future holdings reserved, it would be prudent to trade up as high as possible with the excess of bottom tier picks and go after the most significant impact players available. Go back and check out the players missed during the past five drafts. Michael Thomas, Tyreek Hill, Dak Prescott, Kareem Hunt, Chris Jones, Austin Hooper, Marshon Lattimore, the list could add another five players - but I'm sure everyone will defend the half ass decisions made. No gm is perfect, no draft is perfect. But he has landed starter after starter and good rotational guys in every draft. If we play the stupid fucking 20-20 hindsight game every draft in history was shit. Fucking tools man.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Titans Doctor Thomas Byrd who is a world renowned hip specialist performed this medical recheck on Tua in Nashville. Not that we need a QB but no team has a better idea of Tua's health than the Titans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's just unreported. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
h4t Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 I think the NFL i.e. Goodell, need to make an adjustment for Covid 19. If any drafted player dies or is disabled (permanent lung damage) by the virus before training camp, the team needs to be awarded a compensatory pick next year at the end of the round in which that player was drafted. Just a thought, but the issue could come up and devastate a teams draft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rns90 Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 TENNESSEE: Three positions are mentioned as needs when talking to league sources about the Titans' draft plans: cornerback, offensive tackle and a playmaker at receiver. Whichever is available at No. 29 overall will be the pick. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2884704-matt-millers-scouting-notebook-latest-2020-draft-rumors-for-every-nfl-team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it is what the offense needs to take the next step for some time now. My question is: Is the reason Corey Davis had a down year due to his turf toe or did he just regress? He made some great plays in Mularkey's last year here and has seemed to plateau or fall off. Not sure if it's the injuries or if he's just straight up inconsistent and only flashes occasionally as a player. You'd think if fully healthy, Tannehill would be great for Davis but it didn't play out like that. Either way, we know Davis can't be relied upon. He's either injured often or is a maddeningly inconsistent player or both. He's really a number two in the NFL, both in demeanor and skillset.

He just looks like a young inconsistent receiver who's struggles and lack of development are likely due to injuries. If he can get a handle on that, he will be great. And this is just a terrible offense for WRs. Our #1 catches 3 passes per game, he was just historically effective after the catch . He had trouble getting touches as well, and was basically invisible in the playoffs. Smith has the same WR allergy that Mularkey did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMoney420 Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Davis big issue last year was the turf toe.I think with Brown sky is the limit,with him and RT running 2nd team a lot they already had developed that chemistry.You could def see it once they hit the field together,the Humphries play and contract is more concerning dude just strait disappeared.

BUT if those options are gone/unappealing at #29, Mims and Reagor probably come into play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
