With the 22nd pick, the Titans select CB Caleb Farley

Going back to Rolle is 2 decades! Having said that, he was a great player! Had to watch him again...

 

Rolle was probably the only elite cornerback we’ve ever had. After him, Finnegan was really good for 2 seasons and probably the closest to a shutdown corner since Rolle.

 

Can't believe I forgot McCourty.

 

After that he changed his name to Cortland Innegan, because Andre beat the F out of him!

 

To be honest we haven't ever had a legit shut down guy in TN and potentially Pac Man might have come the closest along with Rolle. We have had some solid players but none that were good enough to hit the level Farley has the potential to hit. 6'2 with sub 4.3 speed and the guy is still learning the position.

I'd say Farley has a legit chance to be in HOF territory if he can stay healthy. Not only does he have the athleticism to man cover anyone he could also be a darn good WR so his ball skills will bag him more than his share of ints if they dare throw his way. If he is healthy we can leave him on an island against their best WR. That is how the defense can become elite.

 

If Farley stays healthy, all the receivers he faces will wind up living in a van down by the river.

 

That was quick.

 

Yea, we are usually the last team to sign our 1st rounder

 

Wow. Hopefully Farley continues to buck our recent trend of first rounds not contributing in year 1. Outside of Simmons who is a special case we have gotten big production out of a first round pick since Conklin.
