Draft Grades
The Draft is finally over, how did your team do?
A+
Kansas City Chiefs:
Best Moves: The Chiefs had several. First was not letting defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey not falling any further than #5, Number two had to be selecting guard Branden Albert out of Virginia at #19. He has the potential to be the next Alen Faneca. Brandon Flowers will be a future star at corner. Jamaal Charles should be a fine backup for Larry Johnson, same goes for Brad Cottam for Tony Gonzalez. Safety DaJuan Morgan and receiver William Franklin should ne future starters. They also gained two steals late in the draft with tackle Barry Richardson and defensive end Brian Johnston.
Worst Moves: I was disappointed to see the Chiefs not concentrate on the offensive line more. Albert and Richardson will be starters, but more help is needed. They also didn't find a replacement for defensive end Jared Allen earlier enough in the draft. Selecting two tight ends were a head scratcher too.
What I would have done in their first round situation: What Kansas City did was perfect. Dorsey was regarded by many as the best player in the draft. Albert is also a future star on the offensive line, the Chiefs weakest unit.
A
Dallas Cowboys:
Best Moves: The Cowboys were very lucky to have cornerback Mike Jenkins fall to them late in the first round. Their first pick in the first round was runningback Felix Jones, and he should be a change of pace in the run game behind Marion Barber. They thought so highly of him, they traded up three spots to snag him before anyone else could. Second round choice Martellus Bennett will be a great backup for Jason Witten after Anthony Fasono left. In round five they found a steal in cornerback Orlando Scandrick, a third round prospect.
Worst Moves: Even though Felix Jones is a terrific runner, many thought Dallas should have selected Rashard Mendenhall, the higher rated back at the time. Im still curious why they chose another running back, Tashard Choice, in the fourth round. However, he was a steal in the fourth anyways so it may be just taking the "best player availble" strategy.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Felix Jones might fit better in their situation, but I still feel Mendenhall was the best choice. You wouldn't be stopping the run game against Dallas with Barber and Mendenhall in the backfiled. I also wouldn't waste two seconds selecting Mike Jenkins.
New York Giants:
Best Moves: The major off-season loss for New York this season was safety Gibril Wilson, and they took care of that by selecting Kenny Phillips in the first round. Safety/corner back Terrell Thomas also fills a major need in the secondary. Wide Receiver Mario Manningham ,and line backers Bryan Kehl and Jonathan Goff were also a case of best player availble situation. With pick number 198 the Giants gave quarterback Andre Woodson a sigh of releif when someone finally gave him a shot. An abosolute steal this late in the draft.
Worst Moves: No real bad moves here, but I would have been in favor of drafting linebacker Dan Connor with their second round choice. Terrell Thomas is still solid though.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Kenny Phillips was the popular and right choice for the New York Giants
New Orleans Saints:
Best Moves: There were six elite players in this years draft, and the Saints made sure they got the last one by moving up to select defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis. He instantly makes their defense much better. Cornerback Tracy Porter was a solid choice in the second round. Defensive tackle DeMario Pressley, offensive tackle Carl Nicks, and wide receiver Adrian Aarington were also steals in the later rounds.
Worst Moves: Kicker Mehlhaff will help in the kicking game, but they should have used that pick on Brandon Coutu.
What I would have done in their first round situation: New Orleans wanted Ellis, and they got him. Nothing else to complain with. The defense needs to be upgraded and he'll help in a big way.
Miami Dolphins:
Best Moves: Jake Long is a wall at left tackle The right choice at the number one spot. Luckily Phillip Merling fell to them in the second round. This man can rush the passer and will be a great replacement for Jason Taylor. Chad Henne may be the teams new franchice quarterback due to John Becks horrible preformance in 2007. Kendall Langford is another defensive end capable of reeking havoc on opposing quarterbacks. Guard Donald was also a late round steal.
Worst Moves: Guard Shawn Murphy out of Utah State with the 110th pick was quite the reach. Taking three defensive ends in the draft was rather odd too.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Jake Long is star, period.
Chicago Bears:
Best Moves: Where to begin? The Bears needed a stout offensive tackle, and they got one by selecting Chris Williams with the 14th pick. Matt Forte in the second round will compete for the starting job in 2008. Third round wide receiver Earl Bennett wil also compete for a starting job. The defensive line needed depth, and they received in with Marcus Harrison, a big tackle out of Arkansas. Safety Craig Steltz and corner back Zack Bowman were solid choices in the mid rounds. Bowman has the potential to be the next Antonio Cromartie. In the seventh round, the Bears grabbed two major steals. Offensive tackle Kirk Barton and receiver Marcus Monk were excellent choices.
Worst Moves: Matt Forte was a fine choice, but I would have chosen Jamaal Charles. Not addressing the quarterback position wasn't wise either.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Many think the Bears should have selected Jeff Otah or Rashard Mendenhall, but the Bears in my opinion made the right choice with Williams, a future pro-bowler in this league.
Carolina Panthers:
Best Moves: You always hate giving up first round picks the next season, but offensive tackle Jeff Otah may be worth it. This just shows the Panthers want to win now. Corner back Charles Godfrey and Dan Connor were A+ selections in the third round. They will be solid starters on the Panthers defense. Tight end Gary Barnidge will compete for the number one job. Defensive tackle Nick Hayden may be Kris Jenkins future replacement.
Worst Moves:
I understand the need for a running back, but not in the first round. Jonathan Stewart is a hell of a player, but the Panthers had a lot more needs. Other than that, I don't see many mistakes by the Panthers.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Instead of trading up for Otah, I would have just took him with their orginal spot. They could have gotten a running back later on.
Phildelphia Eagles:
Best Moves: Yet another solid draft put together by Andy Reid. By trading down, the Eagles were able to grab defensive tackle Trevor Laws and wide receiver DeSean Jackson. Even though I am not a fan of Jackson, he is still great value in the second round and could be a deep threat for Donavan McNabb. Being a big fan of Mike McGlynn, I am giving two thumbs up to Reid who was able to grab this solid versatile blocker. SafetyQuintin Demps was a steal with pick #117, and could possibly compete for a job this season. Cornerback Jack Ikegwuonu, defensive end Andrew Studebaker, and offensive tackle King Dunlap were solid choices as well.
Worst Moves: Linebacker Bryan Smith being drafted was sort of strange in the third round. I would also have liked to see the Eagles draft a taller wide receiver.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Trading down and being able to grab Jackson and Laws was a very smart move.
A-
Tampa Bay Buccaneers:
Best Moves: Almost everyone of the Bucs pick was solid. Cornerback Aqib Talib fits the Bucs system perfectly and will add some much needed youth. A new left tackle was discovered in the third round with Jeremy Zuttah. Defensive tackle Dre Moore and quarterback Josh Johnson also fill needs, as do linebacker Geno Hayes and running back Cory Byrd in the later rounds.
Worst Moves: The move that prevents this from a Grade A draft is Dexter Jackson in the second. I feel they could have grabbed in one or two rounds later and spent this pick on someone with more value. Either way, I see a bright future for Jackson. I had him listed as one of my sleepers in my Studs and Busts column.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I was suprised with the selection of Talib with Mike Jenkins on the board, but Talib fits the system better so it works out.
Indianapolis Colts:
Best Moves: I really like the way the Colts were able to draft valuable backups for key positions they may have problems with. Second Round choice Mike Pollak should be a great replacement for Jeff Saturday. Linebacker Phillip Wheeler will fit great in the Tampa 2, as should Marcus Howard. Tight end Jacob Tamme should be able to fill in for the recently departed Ben Utech.
Worst Moves: Three centers? Two tight ends? I know the Colts don't have many needs, but isn't that going a bit overboard?
What I would have done in their first round situation: The Colts did not have a first round selection, but their first pick Mike Pollak should provide great depth on the offensive line.
B +
Buffalo Bills:
Best Moves: How did Leodid McKelvin fall to pick 11? Either way, Buffalo found themselves a new Nate Clements. In the second the Bills finally found their tall receiver, James Hardy ours of Indiana, a true endzone target. Defensive end Chris Ellis adds depth at the defensive line. Steve Johnson in the seventh round was absolute robbery.
Worst Moves: The Reggie Corner pick seemed like a reach. Drafting Derek Fine over Kellen Davis was a mistake. Not drafting Owen Scmitt when they had the chance might come back to bite them.
What I would have done in their first round situation: McKelvin was a no brainer. The Bills selected a future lock down corner.
Atlanta Falcons:
Best Moves: Joey Harrington? Byron Leftwich? Chris Redman? This team needs a true franchise quarteback, and they got one in Matt Ryan. Curtis Lofton should be a solid middle linabacker. Chevis Jackson is an underrated selection and may make up for the loss of DeAngelo Hall. Harry Douglas is a sleeper in many minds, and may draw a lot of attention of Roddy White.Thomas DeCoud was also a great value pick late in the third.
Worst Moves: Offensive tackle Sam Baker is a hell of a player, but he wasn't worth trading up in the first round for. He probably would have fallen to them in the second. Linebacker Robert James and defensive end Kroy Biermann were also weird selections mid way threw the draft,
What I would have done in their first round situation: I know people are hating on the Falcons for not selecting Dorsey, but this team isn't going anywhere without a legitamate quarterback, now they have one. I would have waited to see what fell to me in the second round rather than trading up in the first for Baker.
San Francisco 49ers:
Best Moves: This team made all the right moves when their pick came up. Kentwan Balmer will improve a weak defensive front. Going to the other line, the 49ers spent no time improving their offensive line with the drafting of Chico Rachal. Defensive back Reggie Smith, once a first round mock draft pick, will also improve a unit in need. Center Cody Wallace will also improve the offensive line.
Worst Moves: Not selecting a wide receiver or defensive end/ outside linebacker, their two biggest needs, until the 174th pick may come back to haunt them. When they did end up selecting one, receiver Josh Morgan, there seemed to be better talent on the board.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Most of the teams at the top of this list made the right choice in the first round, and the 49ers are no exception. Kentwan Balmer will be a difference maker on the line.
Houston Texans:
Best Moves: The Texans seem to be getting better and better each year, and the first round selection of Duane Brown shows they know the problem of the offensive line. Corner back Antwaun Molden will help the Texans second need in the secondary. Houston's fourth and fifth round selections were also brilliant. Linebacker Xavier Adibi and defensive tackle Frank "I was once a first round prospect" Okam may be future starters on the defense.
Worst Moves: I'm all for the idea of drafting a running back, but why fifth round prospect Steve Slaton in the third round? There were better choices on the board. That seemed to ruin the whole flavor of their draft. Other than that, a solid draft by the Texans.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Trading down in order to upgrade at offensive tackle was a brilliant move.
B
Pittsburgh Steelers:
Best Moves: Limas Sweed was just too good to pass up in the second round. Looking back at this draft, we may never know how all these receivers went before Sweed. Offensive tackle Tony Hills will be a starter soon on this line.
Worst Moves: Rashard Mendenhall was the best player availble at pick #24, but did they really need him? The Steelers had many more needs, mainly the offensive line, but spent the pick on a backup running back. The Steelers are in for a long season if they think they can be successful with their current offensive line. Selecting backup quarteback Dennis Dixon was fine, but I would have taken Andre Woodson instead.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I would have focussed more on the offensive line rather than take a back up running back. Either that or trade down. Duane Brown would have been a fine choice at that spot.
New England Patriots:
Best Moves: Yet another solid draft put together by Bill Belichick and crew. Jerod Mayo may have been a reach at #10, but he fills a huge hole on the Patriots defense, Terrence Wheatly also fills a hole at the defensive back spot. Outside line backerShawn Crable will excel in Belichicks scheme. Corner Jonathan Wilhite also adds depth to a weak secondary.
Worst Moves: Good thing the Patriots filled their huge quarterback need with the drafting of Kevin O'Connell in the third round. Not addressing the offensive line might also haunt the Pats.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Yes, Mayo fills a huge need and is a solid pick, but Branden Albert, Chris Williams, or Jeff Otah would make more sense.
Arizona Cardinals:
Best Moves: The Cards are very lucky that one of the top corner backs in the draft fell to them at #16. Dominique Rodgers Cromartie will instantly improve their secondary. Early Doucet was a steal in the third round and will make up for the loss of Bryant Johnson. Defensive end Chris Harrington and offensive tackle Brandon Keith were great late round picks. Arizona did a fine job of filling their needs.
Worst Moves: I am not a fan of a the Calais Campbell pick. He's a lazy athlete and should give up often on plays. Instead of taking defensive end Kenny Iwebema and linebacker Tim Hightower, the Cards should have drafted a running back.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Rodgers-Cromartie was the easy selection at that point and they got it right.
Cincinnati Bengals:
Best Moves: Even though I have them rated as a B, the Bengals still had a very good draft with bringing in a lot of future starters. Keith Rivers with the ninth pick was smart, and should be a stud for years to come. Pat Sims should fill a huge need a t defensive tackle. Andre Caldwell was a steal with the #97 pick, and so was offensive tackle Anthony Collins at #112. Defensive tackle Jason Shirley is another monsterous player, and Corey Lynch will provide competition at safety.
Worst Moves: Obviously with Chris Henry gone and Chad Johnsons issues the Bengals needed wide receivers, but two that early? I understand they're trying to fill a need, but they have more problems on defense to concentrate on. Wide receiver Jerome Simpson was a massive reach in the second round. My big beef with the Bengals draft is not drafting defense enough, but like I said it was still solid and fans should be very happy with it.
What I would have done in their first round situation: They were in a great spot, one of the top defensive players in the draft was bound to fall to them, and this player happened to be Rivers. They did the smart thing and didn't pass him up.
St. Louis Rams:
Best Moves: Defensive end Chris Long should be a force for a long time on the Rams defensive line. Smart choice on every level. Offensive Tackle John Greco is an isurance policy for Orlando Pace. Justin King was a steal at pick #101. He has the potential to be a lock down cornerback. Wide Receiver Keenan Burton and guard Roy Schuening also filled needs in the middle rounds.
Worst Moves: Donnie...Avery. The Rams had the chance to add the top receiver in the draft, or any position for that matter, with the second pick in the second round, and they wasted in on Donnie Avery. This move was beyond bad and puts this grade down a whole letter.
What I would have done in their first round situation: It was between Chris Long or Glenn Dorsey. Either way they would have been happy.
B-
Seattle Seahawks:
Best Moves: Although a semi reach, Lawrence Jackson should be a solid on the Seahawks defensive line competing with other end Darryl Tapp this season. Red Bryant was a steal in the fourth round, and should work his way in the lineup with a constantly injured Marcus Tubbs and recently troubled Rocky Bernard. Fullback Owen Schmitt will be a bruising full back for the next ten years. Although strange, long snapper Tyler Schmitt fills a need. Running back Justin Forsett and kicker Brandon Coutu also filled needs in the seventh round.
Worst Moves: Although tight end was a major issue on the Seahawks offense, trading up 18 spots for tight end John Carlson is questionable. Carlson is a very smart tight end and should be a solid blocker/pass catcher in the West Coast Offense, but Fred Davis could have been a better choice. Not selecting a wide receiver may hurt them in the long run too.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I'm not a fan of Dustin Keller and his non-blocking ability, so I'm glad they stayed away from him. Lawrence Jackson is solid and I have no beef with the pick, but I have to say I'm suprised they didn't settle on other defensive end Phillip Merling.
Denver Broncos:
Best Moves: Many mock drafts had Ryan Clady going #5, so you know Denver got a hell of a player. He will fill a huge need at offensive tackle. Mike Shanahan loves his running backs, and he may have gotten his next stud with Ryan Torain. Safety Josh Barrett and full back Peyton Hillis were major steals in the seventh round.
Worst Moves: Wide receiver Eddie Royal was a solid choice in the second round, but there were better receivers at that point in the draft. Center Kory Lichtensteiger should add depth to the offensive line, but the Broncos should have used that pick on defensive tackle Red Bryant. Corner back Jack Williams being picked was also fishy. I was suprised Denver didn't try to improve.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I had them taking linebacker Keith Rivers, but since he didn't fall tackle Ryan Clady was the next best choice.
New York Jets:
Best Moves: With only 6 picks, the Jets tried to their best by filling all needs. Vernon Gholston at six was a no brainer. He has the chance to be the next Lawrence Taylor. They took a shot at corner back Dwight Lowery at pick #113, and it may pay off. He has the same situation as Antonio Cromartie in 2006, with injuries holding him back. He has a ton of potential. Wide Receiver Marcus Henry was also a good late pick that fills a need.
Worst Moves: I am not a fan of tight end Dustin Keller, so you can see why I didn't like this move. Keller doesn't block, and that is 50% of what all legit tight ends need to do. Trading up in the first for him didn't tickle my fancy. Selecting Eric Ainge for a backup at quarterback wasn't bad, but Andre Wooson would have been the better option.
What I would have done in their first round situation: As I stated before, Gholston was the obvious move, but I would have stayed put before moving up to draft Dustin Keller.
Jacksonville Jaguars:
Best Moves: The Jags are on a mission to get after Peyton Manning, and that is exactly what they did in the first two rounds. After moving up 18 spots to grab Derrick Harvey, the Jags went with end Quentin Groves in the second. Linebacker Thomas Williams, cornerback Trae Williams, and running back Chauncey Washington will provide depth to an already elite team.
Worst Moves: Moving up and giving away two third rounders to grab Derrick Harvey. I understand the move in trying to add more to the devensive line, but I would have waited and see how things unfolded before moving all the way up to eight. Either way, Harvey should be a force in Jacksonville.
What I would have done in their first round situation: See Above.
Minnesota Vikings:
Best Moves: With only five picks, the Vikings were still able to fill needs at all crutial spots. Safety Tyrell Johnson in the second round should prove to be a solid backup for a weak unit. Finally, a quarterback who can possible move the chains on a consistent basis was drafted, John David Booty. He should compete with Tavares Jackson for the starting job. Defensive Tackle Letroy Guion should be a replacement for Spencer Johnson. Center Johnson Sullivan and receiver Jaymar Johnson will add depth to the roster as well.
Worst Moves: Booty was a good selection, but Andre Woodson may turn out to be the better option in the long run. I would also have liked to see the Vikings add another pass rusher to the mix as well. Offensive tackle would have been wise selection as well.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I guess you can say this was spent on defensive end Jared Allen, who will help bring the Vikings to the Playoffs this season.
C+
Washington Redskins:
Best Moves: Many people are impressed by the Redskins draft, but I have my doubts. I like the ideas of giving Jason Campbell weapons. Devin Thomas and Malcomb Kelly will help at receiver. Chad Rinehart will also add depth on the offensive line.
Worst Moves: I love the Devin Thomas pick in the second, but Malcomb Kelly? There is a reason he's been falling off peoples board. Already drafting a wide receiver made it possible to address a bigger need like defensive line. Tight end Fred Davis? How come? They already have Chris Cooley. Colt Brennan? Did they really need him? Not addressing the defensive line until the 242nd pick may come back to bite them.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Trading down to the second was smart because they were still able to grab a legit receiver like Thomas. Kentwan Balmer would also have been a smart choice at #21.
Green Bay Packers:
Best Moves: Trading down to aqquire a second round pick wasn't bad at all. They were able to grab cornerback Patrick Lee with their last second rounder, and he will be very valuable behind Charles Woodsen and Al Harris. Jermichael Finley will be a solid target for Aaron Rodgers. I am also a fan of selecting defensive end Jeremy Thompson and offensive tackle Breno Giacomini.
Worst Moves: Taking the best player availble strategy may have back fired when taking quarterback Brian Brohm in the second round. I understand the need for a back up, but why risk the lack of faith in Aaron Roders? Taking Jordy Nelson with their first second rounder was also confusing. There were better receivers on the board at the time, and they're already set at receiver.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I know they didn't have a first rounder due to trading down (a good idea at that), but i'll discuss the second round. If they wanted a receiver, I would have settled on Limas Sweed, who I think will be the best receiver in the draft. I also would have stayed away from selecting Brian Brohm. Chilo Rachal or Dejuan Morgan could have been possible selections at that spot.
Oakland Raiders:
Best Moves: Darren McFadden was rated #1 on many NFL teams boards, so getting him on your roster is always a good thing. Arman Shields takes care of a need at receiver. Defensive end Trevor Scott also has the potential to crack the lineup in a couple of seasons.
Worst Moves: Is it just me, or does Oakland always select the fastest guy left on the board? Seems like it. Tyvon Branch was added to an already solid cornerback unit, but he'll help with special teams.
What I would have done in their first round situation: It was either Darren McFadden or Vernon Gholston, but in the long run I think they'll be happier with Run DMC
Baltimore Ravens:
Best Moves: Even though I wasn't a fan of their first pick, the Ravens made up for it with the next four. Ray Rice in the second round finally gives the Ravens a legit running back behind Willis McGahee. Third round selection Tavares Gooden will add youth to a desperate linebacker core. Tom Zbikowski proved to be a steal with the 86th pick. Also, Jonathan Ogden finally may have found his replacement with offensive tackle Oniel Cousins.
Worst Moves: All the trading wasn't bad, but drafting Joe Flacco in the first round was a mistake. Chad Henne and Brian Brohm were both better options here, and I still don't think they were worth a first round pick. Not drafting a corner back, the Ravens second biggest need, will be a huge mistake as well. They needed a wide receiver as well, but drafting Marcus Smith when there were better options on the board should prove to be costly.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Trading down with Jacksonville was smart, but when they moved up to 18 they certainly should have drafted a corner like Antoine Cason or Mike Jenkins. They could have waited until the second round for Flacco.
C
Detroit Lions:
Best Moves: Even if it wasn't the player of my liking, I'm glad the Lions addressed the offensive line early. Running back Kevin Smith who was picked in the third round has the ability to rush for over 1000 yards in this offense. Cliff Avril was a major steal with the 92nd pick. Safety Caleb Campbell will also be a fan favorite after selecting him in the third round.
Worst Moves: I think the selection of Gosder Cherilus was a bit early. I would have gone for Jeff Otah or even Rashard Mendenhall for that matter. Linebacker Jordan Dizon was a reach in the second round. In fact, the Lions reached with a lot of their picks and could have gotten them a round later.
What I would have done in their first round situation: Like I stated, Otah or Mendenhall would have been a better option over Cherilus.
San Diego Chargers:
Best Moves: Didn't see it coming, but Antoine Cason should prove to be a solid choice. He'll make up for the loss of Drayton Florence. Dejuan Tribble has early round talent and will also add quality depth when going up against teams like the Patriots and Colts.
Worst Moves: Trading a second rounder in 2009 away to move and and select a full back? I know Jacob Hester has been creeping up boards, but a right tackle would have made more sense. Same goes for when they selected running back Marcus Thomas. Tackle Corey Clark was chosen in the sixth round, but is it even worth it then?
What I would have done in their first round situation: Cason is a solid selection, probably the best player remaining on the board, but I would rather see the Chargers help their line with the selection of a tackle. Duane Brown maybe?
Cleveland Browns:
Best Moves: Beau Bell was one of the best players left on the board when the Browns finally picked. Defensive tackle Ahyba Rubin was a steal at pick #190. Wide receiver Paul Hubbard is a speedy receiver who will replace Joe Jurevicius when his time is done, and possible Donte Stallworth when he eventually disappoints.
Worst Moves: I see the Browns draft very simmilar to the Chargers. They were able to grab some solid players late, but didn't really address major needs. An outside linebacker or cornerback should have been added with some late picks. Also, why select tight end Martin Rucker? Don't you already have Kellen Winslow?
What I would have done in their first round situation: The Browns didn't have a pick in the first three rounds, let alone the first.
C-
Tennessee Titans:
Best Moves: Kyle Vanden Bousch has been praying the Titans would bring in another pass rush specialist other than the aging Jevon Kearse, and he may have gotten his wish with Jason Jones. Even though it took a while, Tennessee brought in a receiver worth throwing to in Lavelle Hawkins.
Worst Moves: In the most shocking first round pick, the Titans spent the 24th pick on running back Chris Johnson. Just last year, this team spent a high draft pick on a simmilar running back, Chris Henry, who was highly regarded for simply his 40 time. Even though Alge Crumpler was signed this off-season, Tennessee wasted a third round pick on tight end Craig Stevens. In the fourth round, they drafted defensive end William Hayes out of Winston-Salem. Who? He wasn't even listed on anyones list of players to be drafted. He was Mel Kiper's 66th rated defensive end. Waiting 126 picks to draft a wide receiver must piss off Vince Young as well.
What I would have done in their first round situation: I don't like giving out low grades, but right now it looks as if the Titans had the worst draft. In the first, even though they were falling, I would have grabbed a legit wide receiver. That or I would have selected a defensive end like Lawrence Jackson or Phillip Merling.
