    Winston is 100 years old. I honestly want our first round to be either a RT/FS/CB, if we are terrible this season trade down and try and get 2 first rounders and grab two of those spots.

    Taking a RT or FS anywhere before the top 20 would be bad drafting, those guys are like centers in the draft, just not 1st rounders, 2nd is fine but not our 1st on a RT or a FS.

    teams picking later can reach for them cause they're generally good teams missing a piece or two.

    Winston would be a good bargain if better Tackles couldn't be added.

    We at least need to take 2 OL in the 1st 5 rounds, starting in round 2.

    Give poutasi a chance. It's been one preseason game. I want to see what he can do this year before looking at next year. We got a lot of football to play and lots of excitement . Go Titans !!

    I agree, but the reports of half-speedy outside guys blowing right past him and into the backfield is concerning. He wasn't known for his quickness in defeating the speed/bull rush up to now, so will it change?

    When you stop and think about what's at stake, there's a whole lot riding on his ability to learn and execute that part of his game.

    You mean the single report of the single half speedy player blowing past him a single time?

    No, I mean in the limited footage we've seen, he's showing the same issues his draft profile mentions as part of his weaknesses:
