I'm Major Jealous of the Titans Interior Olinemen

[ElGatoGrande]

Are you referring to the 1st or 2nd time in 3 years that they drafted OL in the 1st round?

Expand your thinking to 2 of the last umpteen drafts,,,

Why? I'm just asking if the following was a reference to the Tyron Smith pick or the Travis Frederick pick.

Even Jerry finally caved in after the public brow-beating and used one of his high picks for OL,,, sign of a new trend? Maybe, maybe not,,, the fact that he left our worst position unchanged is disconcerting.

for someone clearly happy with mediocrity it apparently is for you

Now how dumb is it to say that a consistent failure means you have put in sufficient resources?

Probably just as dumb as to misconstrue (purposely?) my response to the quote by EGG:

"The Titans are demonstrating real respect for a key component that we have historically minimized."

And my reply:

I never knew spending $20 mil on Marco Rivera, $50 mil on Bigg Davis, $15 mil on Kyle Kosier, $30 mil between Livings and Bern, signing Free for a $32 mil and spending two out the last three first round draft picks on the offensive line was minimizing that part of the team..

Who knew?

You totally botched it.

So when does committing a 1st round draft pick = "he (Jerry) left our worst position unchanged"?

actually you could not find the ball if someone handed it to you.

Yeah, it's an issue on "my" end.

Please try to consider the real argument being made rather than sidestepping and arguing shallow points. Having solid skill positions but marginalizing your trenches produces a fatally flawed team. The Titans are demonstrating real respect for a key component that we have historically minimized. Your argument implies our approach is valid when history shows it is not.

who is sidestepping? i clearly said i wanted more invested in the OL. stop ignoring points that have been posted several times. the point again, is that while you might consider our team fatally flawed due to the process of the front office, which total offensive unit would you want? in fact, which team in totality would you want? that is valid to discuss when cherry picking units of the team to compare. yes we need to invest more in the OL, but to choose a team like the titans as an example when they have little else to show is a weak argument. A better example could have been found to show building through the trenches and having a better offense than we do.

is it more valid to look at history of drafting or the more recent drafts to show that a person might or might not be changing and learning from his old ways?
