    I know everyone has a boner for Williams but I honestly like Fowler more. Williams seems to always be banged up.

    Fowler is a nice option, plays all over, seems like a good defensive weapon to have

    It's way to early to speculate what we are going to do with the #2 pick. I like the idea of the titans saying they are interested in the qbs as a smokescreen, dont want teams to know we won't pick one. I guess well see how the combine goes, mariota wouldn't fit well with whiz so I say fix the defense and give mett another chance with a full offseason as the #1. I mean he barely got reps as the #3 last year and he came in and played well

    There are five blue chip prospects in this draft; Winston, Williams, Fowler, Shelton and Ray.

    If we take Mariota over any of those guys it will be all the proof we need that this team is truly run by idiots.

    If we trade down to #6 at least one of those will be available if Winston & Mariota go 1 & 2.

    Few thoughts..

    Of course they won't make anything clear. And yes I believe they're not already 100% all in on Mett, but I think they're leaning that way. Get the feeling they're pretty low on Mariota/Winston, and we'll have to be 1000% blown away by them at the combine/interviews/pro day to change their mind. QB at #2 is still possible, but I wouldn't deem it likely.

    Of course Locker is gone. Love the answers about LeBeau.

    As for trading back, careful what you wish for.. Ppl acting like that's an automatic win.. You still gotta pick the right guys. It's very intriguing due to the lack of talent on the roster, but staying at #2 and drafting Leonard Williams is the safest thing to do.

    Browns fans probably loved moving back last year, but ended up with Manziel & Gilbert (early, but awful rookie seasons) when they could have stayed at 4 and took Watkins, Mack, Barr or Evans (Odell not realistic at #4)

    The more I watch Fowler, the more I like. I initially was scared on Fowler, but just watched pretty much every YouTube video and I can dig it. I see a combo of Terrell Suggs and Brian Orakpo in him, potentially. He has all the athletic ability, has played RDE, LDE, DT, and OLB at UF and even lost 25 lbs one off-season to tune his body per his coaches wishers. He's aggressive, has a high motor, explosive lower body, and is good in run pursuit. However, he still is raw in pass rush technique and struggles vs down-hill running.

    I feel like Horton & LeBeau could turn this guy into a machine. With no glaring hole at DE with Casey, Pito, Martin, & DaQuan Jones (who I still have faith in), I wouldn't be surprised if we check out Fowler and other OLBs if we pass on a QB.

    1st: Dante Fowler
    2nd: Dorial Green-Beckham
    3rd: Laken Tomlinson

    I'd be happy with that.

    I guarantee you will hear the comparison of Williams to JJ Watt a hundred times out of the mouths of the Titans between now and the draft. You also will hear us praise both Mariotta and Winston. Our job is to make these guys look like can't miss prospects that other teams will want to trade up for.

    I really like what Fowler or Shelton could bring to the team. I would love if we got back to smash mouth Titans defense football, and lebeau/Horton are capable of creating that.
