Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

I don't think we're going to draft Sanders at 9, but if we did I'm going to have a hard time with it.

I just now get back on here and something like this is happening.

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

Dart will be the best QB in this draft, and if we need to trade back to make the pick look good according to get best mock draft value, then do that... otherwise I'm ok with just taking him straight up because he's better than taking Sanders which would be a colossal mistake.

I watched a lot Dart at Ole Miss. I like him as a prospect. He's not better than Sanders though. Put Sanders in that Ole Miss offense with Lane Kiffin and he's throwing 40 TD's.

I hope the Saints don’t reach for a QB but a team will based on need.

I see shades of Christian Ponder (also a reach) with Dart.

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

Tyler Booker - G
Alabama

Overview
Two-year starter and team captain with elite physical traits. Booker is a downhill run blocker with average explosiveness into first contact, but he utilizes his size and power to overtake defenders in the second phase of the block. He can play too far out over his toes but that’s correctable.

Strengths
- Prototypical size and girth with elite length and massive hands.
-Upper-body power and hip torque to turn defenders out of the gap.
-Has a feel for positioning and angles to wall-off blocks in space.
-Patient and controlled working up to second-level targets.
-Protects with good posture and smooth tempo in his mirror.
-Plays with great poise and recognition when twists and blitzes kick off.

Weaknesses
-Approaches too many blocks with outside hands.
-Absorbs rushers instead of consistently punching them.
-Average foot speed to ride or redirect rushers on his edge.

Late Day 1, early round 2 grades

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

Hi everyone. I've been pretty quiet lately as I've been busy closing on a house, with the old house going on the market today.

My office is right across from Titans HQ. I have no idea who will go #1 ... the geese outside the building know but they are not giving up the intel. I do know that Mickey has not visited the Titans in person for the #1 pick, as one of the bridges is closed and you cannot get to the Titans without going by my office to get there - and I have not seen any of Mickey's empty liquor bottles discarded on the road.

Re: Turning Attention to the Draft

If Jeanty and Sanders are both there at 9, who do you think they would pick?

At that point I'm hoping someone offers them a deal to move down. But they probably take Sanders.
