With the 92nd pick, the Titans select LB Monty Rice

His actual name is Montavian Lamar Rice-Jordan.

Jerry Rice and Michael Jordan.

 

@Rwill
I don’t think that kid in the tub is Monty Rice. For one he’s half the size of Monty Rice. For another, Monty posted a few images of the guy and it looks like it could be an old friend that passed away. He has RIPSHOTIME all over his Twitter page.

 

Rice was a Butkus award finalist for best LB in the nation. He was also a team captain and last year sent videos to his defensive teammates encouraging them to hit the weight room in preparation for the season.

 

Jrob told him to post that so nobody else would draft him

 

Tbh don't much other than what I've read...mcgrone read like a leader in the middle, a good Jayron replacement if we don't re-sign him

 

Agree that's not Rice

 

We gotta get at least one pick right from Georgia

 

So Jerry Rice, Micheal Jordan and Lamar Jackson had a love triangle going?

 

Maybe they were really high on Dynami Brown and/or Tremble but they were picked before our pick (85). Now IMO with my limited knowledge I stay at 85 and take Amari Rodger who the Packers actually took with our pick. Now unless you are enamored with Nico Collins, McKitty at TE (apparently they weren't when they traded down but could have taken instead of trading down, and McKitty was available after a trade down) I don't have a problem taking an ILB there.

Rice IMO is a replacement for Evans (with some versatility play weak side and maybe more of a three down LB than Evans) and they probably hope to keep Brown. Brown is a blue chip player so they got a guy to replace him Evans. Long is decent and their fall back if they loose Evans and Brown. Obviously they see Rice as a superior player to Long.
