If you were the Titans

[CATCH17]

You have a 2nd year QB and just traded for DeMarco Murray.

I would use all 8 picks on the OL and defensive front 7. I would draft Tunsil with the first pick. I would grab C Nick Martin in the 3rd. In the 4th - 6th I grab either OG Drango or Dahl. On defense I take 2 DE, 1 DT, and 2 LB.

Then, I use my OL and Murray to own the ball and keep the D fresh.

Gotta take BPA regardless of position when you're that bad.

 

[Verdict]

I agree...............the Titans GM already said that the RG3 trade set the market and any team wanting to trade up for a QB has to pay market value.

For reference, Chippy offered the Titans 3 first round picks last year for Marriotta and the Titans gave Chippy the bird.

If you want to dance with Tennessee, you better be prepared to pay a king's ransom.

If so, I think the Titans will be forced to select a player at #1 overall. I am not saying someone wont make that trade, but I don't think it is prudent to pay that to move up.

I think the Titans WANT to move down actually. It makes a lot of sense for them to do so. They could trade back and get Tunsil or Stanley AND a pick AND save cap room by doing so. I sort of hope that the Eagles make a trade like that to go all the way to #1. It would cripple them for years.

 

[Verdict]

I think if Tunsil doesn't go to the Titans at #1 overall, he won't go any earlier than #4 overall barring trades.

I like your thinking however if I was the Titans, I may be concerned about Tunsil still being there at #4. If we were to trade up to #1 for Wentz, I would guess the next two picks would be Ramsey and Tunsil. The question is the order. It is conceivable that Cleveland takes Tunsil at #2.

If they are indeed playing Moneyball, taking Tunsil and trading Joe Thomas for more picks would be right down their alley.

You draft a franchise LT to protect your fragile "franchise" QB. Easiest no brainer in the draft.
