    Considering Dick LeBeau won't be around for possibly 3 more years should the Titans get ready to hire someone, or bring someone young in as a positions coach and let Dick mentor him. I prefer the second option but I thought that it would be an interesting topic considering most of the post topics are starting to get recycled.

    If we stay in Dick's 3-4 Zone Blitz scheme we're going to need to make sure we find very consistent CBs who very seldom blow assignments and Coverage LBs on our roster with speed to cover average TEs. I think one of our biggest issues is that we are not very fast on defense; whole lot of muscle up front though.

    If we move to 4-3 we might be able to put Kevin Dodd or Derrick Morgan back on the line which might help out Jurrell Casey & Orakpo but an inconsistent pass rush could really be a problem. I have strong faith in Kevin Byard but we would really need to have another solid safety next to him.


    Regardless of what defense we run in the future I would like to see the Titans pick up a Hybrid Safety / Linebacker. Majority of our secondary is very small though so it would probably have to be through the draft.

    Overall thoughts?

    I think they already have him on staff. And his name is Lou Spanos.

    You mean like a Sua Cravens type? Quick, fast, oversized safety but not quite a Linebacker, with some coverage skills?
    I'm all for that idea.

    exacty. Su'a Cravens & Deonne Buchannon are perfect and would help us alot with pass defense

    Titans on 2 tonight was boring, except for Mularkey talking about other teams stacking up and giving max protection to the QB because of our pass rush. He said at times they are putting in an extra lineman. Good plan really, our TE's aren't blocking that well. He goes on to say that because of this our DB's have to stay in coverage longer because we can't get to the QB. On matchups, it appears Cox will be on Landry. Oh boy.

    If Braxton Miller fell to the 3rd round we should be able to take Jabrill Early second. If the rams end up > 7-9 then possibly late first round.

    I should clarify I think he'll be a top 16 pick but not sure if hes worth it. not a defined NFL position atm. But definitely dynamic-- something we're really missing on D.

    I think Jabril is NB or FS in the NFL- if not RB (where he'd be insanely good)

    Will be interesting to see what he goes into the draft as. He can play pretty much any/everything. But too small for LB.
