Felt like we could use a new thread here so how about an all encompassing season thread.
Draft started tonight.
Titans 1st round pick: Jeffery Simmons, DT out of Miss St
Most have him graded as a top 10 talent but he slipped because of a very ugly assault arrest from high school and he tore his ACL in February. Reading up on his arrest, it actually doesn't bother me all that much. It's complicated (he beat on a woman who was fighting his sister and mom) but the kid seems to be remorseful. I'm more concerned about the ACL. I don't like the idea of drafting injured players, especially with your 1st round pick. Most are saying there's a good chance he doesn't even play this year. This team has a lot of needs. I wouldn't waste something as valuable as a 1st round pick on a guy who A) won't play in year 1 and B)There's no guarantee he's right after the injury
Next pick is at 51 overall. I'm hoping we go pass catcher to pair with Corey Davis. There's tons of good ones still left on the board. Would love to see Irv Smith drop but I doubt he slips that far
