I'm starting to feel the Titans may go after Carr at 11, or Fales later in the draft. Bridgewater and Carr are ideal fits for Whiz, but no way TBW is there at 11.
They go Carr at 11 if Locker is determined not to be the future. Good fit for Whiz, great skill set.
If they still want to give...
He's just a good tough, versatile running back. He's what you want in the playoffs for sure. I'm not saying he's better than smaller, fast backs like Charles or McCoy, because those guys are special. But if you want a back that's not "elite" that will be a big impact in the playoffs, Moreno is...
No wonder his season long run was 30 yards. I admire him for playing through it. I'd still like the team to move on though.
I'd be thrilled if the Titans picked up Moreno or Tate in FA.
Even the Pro Bowl needs to bring back the Skills Competition. When they ditched that the whole thing went down hill. Loved the QB challenges, strongest man, and fastest man were always really fun to watch.
As you all know my man crush for this draft is Zach Mettenberger. Like I've said before, he's the closest thing to Tom Brady since Tom Brady IMO. He neeeeeds to get a shot somewhere. I really hope he get's his shot, man.
Yeah he's super strong, but I'd like to see him initiate more contact rather than run through guys, I'd like to see him run over guys.
As far as the speed, I'm not worried about it at all, myself. I think he's got plenty of it. He looks just as fast as the 200 pound backs in the draft. I won't...
While I'm at the comparisons, I've got one more: Brandin Cooks = Antonio Brown. I actually like Cooks out wide, like Brown. Small, but I think he can work there, doesn't need to be a slot.
I really really really like Carlos Hyde. I think his floor is Frank Gore, ceiling Marshawn Lynch. Depends how hard and physical he wants to run.
That being said, I'd take Gore any day of the week, so whoever takes him is a winner in my books. Best RB in the draft by far IMO.
EDIT
Maybe Lache...
Player: $8 Million a year?
Pettine: Uh... let me call in an expert to verify you are in fact legit, and not a freud.
Player: Yeah, sure.
Pettine: Is this guy legit?
Expert: He appears to be. He's black, 6'2, 220 pounds... and he looks fast as shit. All checks out.
Pettine: Okay, now...
Still need to do a lot of studying, but as of right now, my preliminary QB rankings are as follows:
1. Johnny Manziel (top 5)
2a. Zach Mettenberger (top 12)
2b. Teddy Bridgewater (Zach and Teddy are interchangeable with what system you want to run) (top 12)
4. Derek Carr (1)
5. Blake Bortles...
Man Blake Bortles had himself and awful Fiesta Bowl. I really am baffled how this guys has top 5 hype. I get drafting for need. But this is just.. I have no words.
