The NFL Draft. It's the peak of hell. Hell being the NFL offseason. It means we're almost there, we almost made it through another 7 months of the worst time of the year. The draft gives teams hope. It gives fans hope. This post is about what will give we Titans fans hope, and maybe, just MAYBE, allow us to finally keep that hope for reaching Jersey, past week 4 or 5 for once. Because let's be honest, it's hell knowing your team is going to miss the playoffs.... again.
Now I may be a little bias on these picks, because these are actually the only ones I know that well... Because i'm an Alabama fan.
But anyway
In all reality, our 10th overall pick should be used on an offensive lineman. And let's be honest, we all know Luke Joeckel is going earlier. So why don't we settle for the next best thing, Chance Warmack. I watched Chance the past couple years, and he is simply great. He's got good size for a lineman, and who cares about that when you just watch his ability to block?
Round 1, pick 10:
The Tennessee Titans take Chance Warmack, Guard, from the University of Alabama
Next... Alabama RB Eddie Lacy, assuming he is available. Again, sounds bias, but I watched these guys the past few years. The hard truth for Titans fans: we NEED a power back that can share some snaps with CJ2K. CJ is fast, but doesn't have the power in him to knock guys down and carry people for 15 yards. You can't really even consider him a short yard option, because for that, you need someone who can break away from a hit. Don't get me wrong, CJ can sure as hell break some tackles, but Eddie Lacy... That guy just carries whole defenses on him and gets into the end zone, or gets the first down, whatever is necessary And that's not even the best part. He's not just a power back. He can outrun a lot of guys as well. SO...
Round 2, Pick 8:
The Tennessee Titans take Eddie Lacy, Running Back, from the University of Alabama
The only thing I may rather take here would be something on the defensive side of the ball, since we obviously aren't top-notch over there...
I'd take Blidid Wreh-Wilson or Tony Jefferson in the 2nd round, we don't need a RB till the 4th, remember Arian Foster.
