Still struggling to see us taking Warmack at 10. You may well be right though.

There's just too much pointing towards us taking him. I honestly believe that the only way we wont take him is if he isnt there.

There a few mocks having us not taking him, but from everyone with any connection to the Titans they all have Warmack going at 10

Until it happens I'm not going to expect it, the drafts still over a month away and we've seen before how prospects move around in mock drafts in the weeks and days leading up to the draft.

As I've mentioned already lot's of people expected the Titans to draft DeCastro or maybe a DE in the 1st last until they came out of nowhere and drafted Kendall Wright. That makes me think that they would prefer not to take an OG in the first round of the draft. It's also possible that they feel tehy made a mistake last year by not taking DeCastro and want to rectify it this year, but I'm sceptical.

Is there any good mock drafts, articles or blogs by people with connections to the Titans that I should look at?

This is quite a good fan site
http://www.musiccitymiracles.com/

It aggregates a lot of Titans info, Paul Kuharsky is the AFC south ESPN analyst and he's normally quite good. I think he worked for the Tennessean previously

Heffo001 · 11-03-2013 5:37pm

Cheers, the website looks fairly handy.

Yeah, its a nice site and updated pretty frequently

SB Nation do a great job. The giants community is Big Blue View

Hutch is gone, this signifies 2 things.

We will be taking Warmack and we are getting Levitre! (Hopefully)with hutch gone it frees up just over 3 million

We also have a second round tender placed on velasco! If everything goes to plan we are gonna have a beat Oline!!!!

Yeah no one is going to bid on him, so he'll be staying.

Need to get Levitre, Warmack i think is a cert and with Stewart at RT and Roos at LT we should have a pretty solid o-line!

helimachoptor · 12-03-2013 9:12pm

Looks like babineaux is getting released, imagine we're targeting SS in the second round

helimachoptor · 12-03-2013 9:14pm

Also titans seem to be in the mix for Amendola. Levitre is a done deal apparently, also sone solid info on Walker TE

helimachoptor · 12-03-2013 9:55pm

So Levitre and Walker... good FA so far!

Would have been better to keep Cook than sign Walker but not bad move

helimachoptor · 12-03-2013 10:14pm

Fully agree, but I think Cookie just wanted the cash and they werent willing to pay that much.

Shame that they couldnt come to a mid-point on the money

helimachoptor · 12-03-2013 10:16pm

Looks like Cookie is on his way to the Rams

#Colt ILB Moise Fouku visiting Titans

Somethings up.. i picked this guy up as a FA in Madden :pac:

Dohnny Jepp · 12-03-2013 11:45pm

Im really happy we got lev, and walker is an ok move. I hope this isn't it for us, we still need a few more pieces before the draft!

helimachoptor · 12-03-2013 11:54pm

The vasquez deal is half the cost of the Levitre deal... And Vasquez is better apparently

Super bowl contenders always pay less unfortunately. For example all we can offer is money. Broncos can offer a legitimate chance at a ring.

Dohnny Jepp · 13-03-2013 12:22am

I also should add I think levitre is significantly better than vasquez

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 8:34am

From the little I've seen of Vasquez ID agree, thoughts on today?

Sammie Hill looks certain which means Marks will leave, Washington is being shopped (not happy about this) he's led the team in yards the last 2 years, replacing him for an injury prone Amendola is not good business even taking into account Washintons 4 mill.
salary

Heyward Bey is available and worth a punt as is Michael Huff I think

Dohnny Jepp · 13-03-2013 12:38pm

Marks had one good year ever.... and it happened to be in a contract year! I don't think hes worth what he is gonna expect to get paid, so its unavoidable and I don't really mind seeing him go! I like Washington a lot but I think our team has gone stale, if britt can get back to his previous form and Wright progresses as we hope then id actually welcome a good slot receiver like amendola and a physical freak like bey. If we lose Washington, pick up those two and draft warmack our offence should be very good with plenty of pieces for locker.

We still need a couple of defensive signings. Pass rush, corner.

All in all im happy with how this free agency has gone so far!

I'd love to get Huff however i think he'd be expensive.

On Marks fully agree, he's the defensive version of Cookie and he'll want a lot more than what the Titans are willing to pay.

Bey would really really stretch the field i think and could be a huge asset, my worry about releasing Washington is that we have no idea if Britt will get over his on/off field issues, Wright is solid but he's not a superstar.

Having Britt, Washington, Amendola, Wright and Walker would give us great weapons and if we managed to get Heyward Bey, well we'd have a very good passing game with a hopefully much improved run game.

The aim this season has to be to stop Locker taking hits when he's passing it, if he fcuks up his shoulder again he'll be gone i think

Also been very happy.

Wilson, Levitre, Walker and Hill will all be solid starters.

2/3 more players and we could actually have a positive season!

DE is a definite worry so far, was hoping we'd sign one but also at CB there are a lot of guys on the market and good guys at that so we should be able to get someone cheap

Shonn Greene is set to visit the Titans...

hmmm... could be worse i suppose, but could be better!

I don't think name free-agent RBs come any worse.

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 2:24pm

Yeah i'd rather draft a bruiser in the later rounds tbh

Don't worry, if you're in a situation where you need between exactly 2.5 and 3 yards and not a centimetre more, he'll be a fantastic pick up.

I think you missed the point there :pac:

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 2:36pm

No i get it... but we are struggling at running back so we do need someone in those short yardage situations just to power over, hopefully its Greene, would prefer Turner!

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 3:21pm

Cookie gets 7 million a year.

Should we have paid that?

I don't think so, well I'm not sure if it was a failing on the play calling and coaching or on Cook himself, but either way he has never had a season to warrant that kind of money

It would have been a lot of money for "potential" but either way his performance is not longer our concern

Need to pick the Rams next year in Madden 14

I think Walker is a better fit for us than cook anyway!

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 4:42pm

time will tell, but the saving is quite good, 3 million a year would buy a decent player

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 4:47pm

Titans apparently interested in Safety Gerald Sensabaugh (cousin of Coty) seems odd.. would he be coming to take the FS spot or provide depth behind Wilson?

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 7:04pm

Looks like Greene is a Titan

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 9:05pm

3 year 10 million deal for Greene

Don't like that move at all. I hope I'm proving wrong.

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 9:18pm

half of it is guaranteed which seems to have shocked a lot of people (including me) its a good deal apart from that i think

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 9:37pm

Sammie Hill former Lions DT gets a 3 year 11.4 million deal

Well we're being active if nothing else haha

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 10:38pm

Yeah would imagine there'll be a couple more signings anyway (hopefully)!

Amendola apparently in Boston (has family there) but with Welker gone... he's off to the Pats i think

DE, CB and WR (maybe a FS too) long way to go yet anyway

If we don't sign anyone to help our secondary in free agency it indicates to me that we will go after Vacarro. If we do sign a cb and/or fs we'll take Warmack.

Yeah its likely Amendola will go to NE but you never know, NE are as tight as a ducks arse so if we are willing to pay him and if our other signings are anything to go by then we do have a chance.

helimachoptor · 13-03-2013 11:41pm

Titans also sign ILB Moise Fokou

No way did the Lions want to lose him as you've got a decent DT on your hands there.
Don't expect him to rack up the sacks but he's an exceptional run stuffer & is also adept at getting QB pressures.
Hope he does well for ye. Great pro.

helimachoptor · 14-03-2013 11:14am

Rumours circulating that Delanie Walker is in trouble already with Munch.

Apparently baseball caps/hats are not allowed in BSP (titans training facility) and he wore a cap during the press conference
