    SUMMARY: The interview process to find the next Titans GM appears to be moving faster as the team has interviewed two of their own yesterday. Rich Snead, the Titans director of player personnel, and Mike Ackerley, the team's director of college scouting interviewed yesterday. Today the Titans will interview Packers Director of Pro Personnel Reggie McKenzie and Seahawks Vice President/Player Personnel Ruston Webster. On Monday, Jaguars Director of Pro Personnel Charles Bailey is scheduled to interview. It is uncertain as to whether Dolphins GM Randy Mueller will interview for the position.

    Interesting we interviewed two inside guys. I am not sure I would want an inside guy, especially if they learned from Reese.

    I would prefer someone with experience.

    I wouldn't mind an inside guy as long as they're willing to work with Fisher to get him players he likes. As for the Reese influence, I don't think it would make much difference. It really comes down to getting good players and keeping them as long as you can. You bring in a guy who makes a couple good draft picks and everyone will be calling him a genious.

    I don't really care who has the job. Honestly. Because group think of GM's sets in at some point anyway, but I prefer someone who has scouted defense. As we need that most.

    Well...

    I would prefer they bring in a guy who's strength is personel as opposed to a guy who's mostly a financial guy.....how's he gonna decide who we go after in free agency?

    I think they should interview Phil Savage of the Ravens (who've had top notch drafts) or try to hire Scot Pioli away from the Patriots (an extreme long shot).

    Most importantly, someone with a good eye for talent, understands the salary cap game, demands accountability from players and coaches alike, and can convince Adams to use the Patriots paradigm of building and maintaining a Super Bowl caliber team over a decade instead of maxing talent for a 2-4 year window followed by a dismantling of the team and a 4 year rebuilding project.

    Gunny, I'm gonna call you on that.

    smells like smack Gunny-nator.

    Learned from Reese? Defend that. That sounds like total bs.

    Because of Woolfolk? C'mon, you are going to have to do way better than that. I'll bet you right now the Giants win the NFC within 5 years. I'll do you one better. Once the Titans win the AFC the Giants will be waiting in the the SB for us. I'm serious dude (not about a wager) but... make me a believer with that weak dingo assertion. Doesn't hold water man.

    yeah, give me a guy who is a good judge of caliber
    a guy who can recognize players abilities as they relate to our scheme

    not sure it matters if it's a guy named Savage or a guy name Snead

    Not because of Woolfolk, because of many busts he has drafted lately.

    Because he took 'athletes' not players.
