    Chiefs got away with a lot of contact last game, Hunter isnt a guy who deals with contact well, normally he can run free and if he is pushed around he gets the PI calls....

    Im close to throwing in the towel but not there yet... Fingers crossed.

    I really didn't see too much that Hunter screwed up. Over and under thrown several times and one was a good play by the defended knockit it loose if I remember correctly.

    Read something about how his target to catch percentage sucks big time this preseason, but I bet a large percentage of those aren't drops or mistakes by Hunter.

    Potential. I can't wait for a player with potential the team drafts to finally reach that potential.

    This is his last year. He has DGB on his tail so he needs to step up for his own sake.

    I dont know if anyone really watched Hunter at UT but if its not a 7,8,9 route he pretty much sucks, I saw him catch balls turns around and just fall down. He not a good pick and a 2nd at that, which i almost had a heart attack when they picked him.

    The teams main problem is they cant draft FOOTBALL players. They draft on combine numbers and measurables. The Titans need some football people in the Front office until they do they will always be the Oilers.

    I have no faith in our Defense... Maybe Dick could help vs a rookie QB but if we don't stop the run we will lose.

    24 -17 bucs

    I think you are being overly generous. I gave Hunter 3 drops on the day. He does not deal with contact well at all but he does not track the deep ball well when people are near him. And for a guy of his height and length, he does not shield defenders off the ball at all.

    I think they will play him but I see him as a 3rd or 4th wr in the rotation and using him mainly as a speed decoy against zones for Wright and whomever else to get those 10-15 yard crossing routes in between zones.

    Douglas and Nicks (if he makes the roster) will be targeted more and DGB will knock him way down the ladder when DGB is comfortable.
