I think how we finish out this bowl will help decide how we close out in recruiting. The remaining blue chip guys are the ones shopping teams. We have what we need at the core but winning and boosting perception will be tremendous for closing.

Lol. Who in their right mind would want Cutler as their team's QB? He's proven to be a loser. His attitude and demeanor in interviews just screams "I don't work hard enough to ever be an elite, Super Bowl winning Qb."

I keep telling you guys there is a 3rd string pocket passing rocket arm QB waiting for a call from Tennessee. It is only about 7 hours drive from KC to Nashville...

Watching some of this season game film Hurd is better in tough ball games. The better the competition the better and more aggressive he ran. I watch for him and Dobbs to lead a much more aggressive team next season. He'll be really respected as a young leader on this team. I can't wait for 2015.

I'd be totally down with Bray. Draft Gurley and trade for Bray. Then I'd watch every game like I used to.

No way do the Titans need to mess with Cutler or Hoyer. Keep developing Mett and draft another QB this year.
I'd take a late round flier on Sean Mannion. 4 year starter in a pro-style offense, good completion % although his QBR is low. Big kid with a strong arm. Basically a Mett clone.

Titans need a defense heavy draft. Amari Cooper would be a luxury we can't afford right now.

We have defensive needs, but I really think a large part of our defensive struggles have been transitioning the D to a 3-4, and injuries. We need an O-line that can block without being the most penalized line in the NFL. We also need at least one good WR. Mett can throw a ball, but those fools never catch it. I've seen more drops from our WR corps than I can ever remember from an NFL team.

My thinking is trade the pick for a later 1st rounder plus multiple later rounds and ride with Mettenberger next year. There isn't a QB available worth the investment and Cutler won't be as cheap as some think, eventhough the Bears will probably eat some of his contract just to get rid of him. Also, I think you ride with Mettenberger because if he isn't the answer then the Titans can probably start from scratch with a new coach and QB in 2016.

I'm not sure what position the Titans should draft because they have holes pretty much everywhere, but I might start with a pass rusher.

By all accounts they already have a pocket passing rocket arm QB in Mettenberger, but IMO they need to bring in (or keep Whitehurst) a savvy vet to push Mett.

Bray passing to hunter? Heck, why don't we get a certain WR coach from Dallas and get the whole gang back together? It worked so well the first time. /sarcasm

Mett is better than bray. The whole time he's been in as a starter, he's had an OL that's allowed him to be crushed, and has not helped our running game which opens up the passing game. QB is the one place place we're so-so at. Getting a 2nd stringer who can't beat out a terrible QB in Alex Smith isn't any better than having whitehurst.

Looks like McElwain's disciplinary actions will get forced into play quickly. Will he make a strong point with the punishment or not?

Depends if Harris fits into his plans or not.

If he does, suspended from first practice in Spring.

If he doesn't, here's an apple and a road map.

I don't look for much to happen. Nothing ever does in Gainesville.

It's a little different than normal because it's his first punishment. This is the one that sets the tone for his tenure. I'd personally sit him for the bowl, not because his crime was that bad, but because I'd want to start cleaning up the culture Chump left behind.

Doesn't seem like something worthy of kicking off the team.
