if tennessee feels someone could move ahead of them

ssmitty · 04-28-2006, 07:16 AM

to us for leinart, this would not only signal the run for qb's, but put some nice picks in our grocery basket...........
if that happens, we could possibly be looking at 3 2nd round picks and a strong chance of still getting who we want in the draft........
actually, all this talk has come nothing short of full circle since we begin discussing the draft.
one more day...............smitty

i think the titans feel pretty confident about the fact that leinart will still be there considering we aren't drafting him and the jets look content to stay at 4 and take the best available at that spot... of course, if the jets do realize they want leinart they know they have to trade up to us to get him and the titans will lose out and select vince young... i'd hate to be the titans FO the day after the draft if they let the jets trade up to snag leinart...

from all the bs, the hearsay, the secrets, and so on, this is what i'm predicting if titans are really interested in leinart..............
the only thing that will change that is if oakland gives us what we want before or during the draft because they may also want him.
and the jets, well, i think they too may want him, but may or may not settle for cutler......
i believe we will see a run on the qbs............
and i just have to believe right now that the saints will stand pat and draft lienart regardless..
nuts? maybe.............maybe not....................smitty

i think leinart would be a good pick, but not after signing brees for so much... brees has alot of guaranteed money and so would leinart (roughly expected to pocket $24 mil. guaranteed).... too much money spent on one position... this would compound our problems of being unbalanced among the entire roster... we wouldn't have enough money to spread over to other need areas....

finally, an excellent point.......................
now, if we do have to stand pat at 2 with no other offers, what are we gonna spend regardless? and how is that much spending on one guy, say brick or mario or hawk make that much of an impact? we're still gonna spend the money and have only one guy and as much as i would like brees to stay for life, he's not even there yet..........we need more picks, period.........................while i agree, we may get an impact player, we need much more.......
a trade is the only way we do that.........or a bluff with leinart..............one way, we address many needs, (and don't think the fo is not trying to do that) the other way, we either find a trade partner, or simply keep leinart and go on.......somebody wants leinart, of that i'm pretty certain.....................smitty

there are many teams that want leinart, but very few, if any, are willing to pony up to get him... there are simply no takers at this point... hopefully, by tomorrow that will change...
