PODCAST Episode 51 - Two Tone Crew Annual Draft Episode (part 1)

[Jamalisms]

For those interested:

[OILERMAN]

Literally no one is interested

[Jamalisms]

Oh, Napoleon.

[OILERMAN]

I shouldn't have said no one, Jamal appears to actually be very proud of it.

Was a really good podcast guys.  I'm really not trying to overly blast on MCM here, because I visit the site fairly often and they have a lot of great posts/posters there, but it's really refreshing to hear Titans related draft talk and not have it saturated, completely and absurdly, by a jackoff lovefest for Warmack/Cooper.  If you're interested in the draft, and not overly fond of the Titans taking either of those guys, stay the Hell away.  There's tons of draft talk over there, but seriously 90% of the posters act like they're going to riot if one of those two aren't the pick (namely Warmack).  Any draft profile/analysis that mocks another player to us (not that there are many, most of the writers are guilty of the circle jerk as well) is immediately blasted and literally every conversation shifts to how either of those guys HAVE to be the pick, even more praise is heaped on them, and no real discussion can take place over any other prospect.   Seriously, I've almost boycott that site until after the draft is over.  

Anyway, rambling over.  I'm really looking forward to part two of this.  It's awesome that the participants, even with biases, have open minds in relation to several ways we could/should go and pointed out numerous times because of the oddness that is this years draft, they're doing their best to not "fall in hate" with any of the prospects.  Keep up the good work.

To be fair, I pound the table for a lineman in the next episode.

... a defensive lineman.

At this point it could probably save time if we just limited discussion on who we pick at 10 to who you like better, Warmack or Cooper and which safety you like best in the 2nd.

[JLocker10]

We're not drafting Warmack or Cooper at 10

[Jamalisms]

...because we're trading up to get one!

[Supdawg]

Great podcast guys! 

I am okay with many guys at 10. 

[Number9]

I really found the praise of Bjoern Werner interesting.  I will be watching to see where he goes and follow his career.

 

I am one of the sheepies thinking one of the guards would be a great pick.

[Pragidealist]

We're not drafting Warmack or Cooper at 10

Money - whatever he says with such conviction - plan on it being wrong

[OILERMAN]

Yea he's as bad as Jamal talking about a CB

 

Campell and Hawkins are fine, name a teams 3rd CB, no one has 3 good ones

 

We better draft a CB, we've only got 4 on the roster!

I've learned to never give absolutes when it comes to the NFL.

Oof... where to begin with this mental misfire...

First of all, those are comments from two separate years... which is a low hurdle even for you, Napoleon.

Secondly, I'm content with Sense as the #3 in the same way I was content with Mouton, Hawkins, Campbell or a rookie as #3. In fact, Sense is preferrable to any single guy last year. Anything can be improved, but the top three are fine and the importance you place on it simply isn't matched by NFL teams. At the same time, when a team's depth chart is down to just the three starters... and a fourth who is at this point a special teams player, maybe... it is a position that needs addressed with numerous picks.

 

This is a very simple thought process to follow.  I have faith that if you re-read it a few more times... you will understand.
