Titans trade 1st pick. 4th and a 6th rounders to Rams

Titans got 2 1st round picks. 2 2nds, 2 3rds.

Pretty happy. Titans have 6 picks in the first 76 picks this year.
Always felt like it was in their best interest to stockpile picks and hated the idea of Tunsil at number 1 because of my own personal character concerns with him (he was with Nkemdiche the night he fell off the balcony drunk and high and was suspended for accepting brjbes). Dropping to 15 is a bit farther than I expected them to go but hopefully they can still nab Ronnie Stanley at that point if that's truly the guy they targeted where they to move down. Overall, hard not to like the move with no clear cut hall of fame talent in the draft

I think it's a great move for them. I feel like there isn't a great top 2-3 players in this draft, but a really good top 20-25. I only wish the Browns would trade down as well. :-(

Would probably make a ton of sense for the Browns as well since they'll probably be in the bottom 3 again next year :lol:

they did a study on the nfl draft a while back and over time, no one team is better than any other at drafting and the best way to do well in the draft is just by having more picks. good trade for the titans. Looks like the Rams are going to go with Wentz and if he is a franchise QB it is worth it, if not, mehhhhh

I think the Wentz interest is a smokescreen. Rams moving back to LA and can have a Cal QB as the face of the franchise... I think it's for Goff.

Now if the Browns are smart, they start a bidding war between SF and Philly to move #2.

Could you also see the Jets get involved with dangling Wilkerson and picks?

I'd think it's unlikely. I can't imagine that the new FO would be interested in bringing in Wilkerson on his 1/15m tag without signing a long-term deal upfront and based on their recent moves, I'm doubting that they are would want to do a long-term deal with him right now anyway. They have a handful of young DT/NT that they've recently acquired and have been pushing.

I was talking to a buddy last week and i wanted to essentially give what we gave Titans for #6 so this trade is def, IF Wentz is a franchise QB, Quality over quantity. Rams got more for #2 overall and there's no indication either first will be low. Now obviously it comes down to drafting and such and Titans need a lot more. Good for them tho, wasting the #1 on a OT would of been dumb.

but ya, i said give 1/2/2/1 to Ravens lol

If someone falls toward the back half this year, Titans will package them 2s to move back in 1st. There is no guarantee they stay at 15. They could very easily move back up. First time in a while I am eager for a draft.

Watching the Titans maneuver the draft is infinitely more exciting than watching the Braves at this point in the year!

Is Blake Barnett competing for the starting job right now? I coached against him back to back seasons when he was in HS.

Wide open. BB has most upside but Saban has said him and the true frosh have struggled with being consistent. I figure Cooper Bateman gets the nod opening weekend.

Chalupa Batman has been destined for greatness from day 1. Awesome to see him doing well.

Barnett had all the tools in HS. He's really big and really fast but has a super weird throwing motion and sometimes lack s accuracy. He did play in a spread though and I thought he was a much better pro-style type player even with his size and speed.

I could not agree more.
If they can get half of what the Titans got, go for it.
