    What pleases me the most is these guys were productive players in college. I hope the Chris Henry pick made a lasting impression over at Baptist Sports Park. I don't see the Titans having to wait two seasons or more for them to contribute.

    I like that most of these guys are intelligent which hopefully means we'll hopefully not hear of them not being on the field because they can't pick up on the playbook or understand their assignments.

    You have pass rushing moves? Great. Are you also 270 lbs and capable of running a 4.7 40? I think we have some UDFA spots left.

    This is probably a stupid question: What's a "POD"?

    Morgan's pass rushing ability is better than many give him credit for. The best thing about him is that he's great all-around.

    POD= player of the day.

    Guys you might not know who will make a splash in the league............I been posting ten to twelve yrs worth. Some of them you clearly know now........and many got picked by TN. CJ was one..........I had him in a mock going in round one in January the yr before he got drafted to Sea one pick before TN and people laughed.

    Finny Roos Stewart Tully were all PODs..........

    Colston was a POD.........

    I also had TN taking Griffin in one when no one else did..............

    Some of my draft picks were real solid but I have had some bombs like anyone else..........I thought Benson was going to be great and he just needed a change of scenary............

    Alex Barron I thought should have been the pick the yr they went Pac..........And I said before pac got picked he'd be out of the league by 2008 because of his off field stuff............I also said Mike Williams and Rogers were turds...........before they became turds.

    I love Hawk............and knew TN would not take him.

    Owen Daniels was a POD............speaking of him.......them getting two TE's in this draft tell me something about his recovery..........maybe not going too well.........I have heard rumors about it..........but Dickerson was a steal in 7. He was another POD this yr. Ducasse was a POD as was the Jags first rounder............never had a POD go in one before this yr.............I think Jax had a real good draft. Liked Indy's draft alot too........


    Getting back to Morgan............I do think he will be solid.......KVB like is fair enough assessment...........but at 16 you need to get a rusher............not an edge container.............Morgan is very coachable............so I think yr two under Wash could be good.............but I bet Ford and Hayes explode this yr and Morgan is a rotational guy..........I dont think he'll start but I do hope I am dead wrong............Numbers dont tell the story with him.........they look good but his game tape show a guy who just does not explode when he turns the corner.............And that is how TN DE have to play...........JPP has that...........but he has nothing else. Everson Griffin is the same type of player............I see him as a great pass rusher but he will need time to refine himself................I do know Washburn loved Hayes............he thinks the kid is probowl possible.............very very explosive and he has the strongest hands you have ever seen............go to TC and shake his hands.........dude has a vice grip.

    some other thoughts that no one in Nash wants to talk about.........That two they gave up to the Pats for Cook is looking bad............this TE draft was loaded........and guys who may turn out great went below where Cook was taken...........Like Hernandez. But I still maintain when it is all said and done............Cook is going to be more like a WR than TE..............He has to hit this yr or that pick is gonna be scrutinized because more TE were taken than RB this yr in the draft............means a ton of options were available to TN if they had stayed put..............I also found it curious they were shopping Bo hard both days of the draft.............making me think they had another plan.

    I think some players need a change of scenery..............like Groves..........I think he explodes in Oak. Infact I think TN opener is going to be very very tough now.

    What does being 270 lbs and running a 4.7 have to do with anything?
