Because if Latham sux and Nabers is a homerun, then he looks stupid for saying it was always Latham over Nabers. 

 

Feels like you would always compliment the player you got just for the players sake. Also, BC doesnt make the picks, its not his job to be the evaluator, so its not on him.

better...because?  I'm not seeing the down side in getting locked into the answer that says the guy you drafted was the one you wanted more than the guy you didn't draft.

It's a theoretical rabbit hole he doesn't need to go down...and it's not like he and others have not been complimentary of their picks.....

The Titans being comfortable with Latham playing LT does not mean switching sides is irrelevant to every possible player evaluation.

 

What's increasingly clear is that the Titans are relatively comfortable letting NPF, Duncan, and Watson battle for the RT spot.

 

Ojukwu is still there, but they may view him as a LT only and he'd be a real dark horse. Interestingly, everyone besides Latham, Watson and Cushenberry are listed as OL and not T or G (Cush is listed as C) on the official roster.

[BudsOilers]

Yeah I guess he's got a shot too albeit he struggled when he got his shot too.  IDK if the OL vs G/T on the website is meaningful at this point.

He was plenty complimentary of Latham and someday Nabers might be a FA too after the Titans are fresh off that 2nd Lombardi and Nabers is looking for a spot to get a ring.

He could of killed any speculation on the spot by backing the guy they just drafted and chose not to do so.

There's no reason not to answer it directly if Latham was always going to be the pick over Alt or Nabers.

 

...and if not then the best answer would have been to lie and say he was.

We haven’t seen enough from Callahan yet to really know what his style is when it comes to answering these sorts of questions. But maybe this an early clue that we are going to be left without direct answers on a lot of questions like these. Time will tell…

Yeah, anyone still creating posts off this response is just tired of having nothing to talk about at this point. 

 

It's a small league. Don't shit on anyone in public for no reason. Pretty simple, even in large industries

Simmer down there Taylor bro. lol  We all appreciate your enthusiasm and everything, but we also know you like to talk a lot of smack sometimes.  Instead of hype, pull that fat wallet out and throw about $10k or $20k on the Titans winning the division.  You know you got it!

 

C'mon man, I put $10k on Trumps pos DJT / DJTWW stock 3 weeks ago!  And I wasn't even getting 8 times my bet, like you would be getting if you bet on the Titans!  Oh wait Taylor, what was that sound over your way? 

 

   I fuckin' thought so!

 

The latest odds...

I've never seen Philadelphia with Tom Hanks, but, now, I know the progression of the movie.

It's actually quite dull.  I saw it once years ago in the 90s and never bothered to ever watch it again.   I'd watch Forrest Gump again and I hate that film.

Forrest Gump? I just found it incredibly stupid how this dumbass basically got lucky his entire life.  Also, I was quite perturbed that this film beat out Pulp Fiction for the Oscars that year.  There were many movies made in 1994 that deserved accolades.  Forrest Gump wasn't one of them.

[titanruss]

Forrest Gump the movie was also nothing like the book.

This isn't the kind of non-definitive statement TR likes though. You are either smart and think it was OT no matter what, or a dumbfuck who thinks there could have been a debate about taking a WR instead.

I think WR was debated and a "possibility" but that when push came to shove, they would take the tackle. When I say that it was always going to be LT, I don't mean to imply that a debate never happened. It's like when I go to certain restaurants, where I'll look at the menu real hard and make that face like I'm really  mulling over the options and then my wife goes "you're getting the steak aren't you"? Damn right I am lol.  It was always the steak.
