I dont know if you guys know the story on how Young became a Titan. Actually it plays into how organizational clarity can screw your team for a decade.

Fisher and Shanahan are pretty good friends and Fisher was set on Cutler after reviewing the QBs with Shanahan (Lienhart, Young, Cutler). Norm Chow was the star coordinator brought in by the Titans who had some pull and wanted Lienhart that led to a rift that eventually sent Chow packing, and the night before the draft the war room was set on Cutler. Come the next morning, Bud Adams came in like a boss hog and demanded VY. Shortly after that pick the Broncos traded up to get Cutler.

Today the Titans are without a QB, Fisher was fired and Adams is dead with the shittiest roster in the league. Who will be in play for Jamis Winston or Mariota if they dont take Bridgewater this year. Instead they could have had a franchise QB that would have drawn in FAs and would have been a great fit with the WRs they have now (Hunter, Wright). Jeff Fisher would have still been in TENN, the team would have been in the playoff hunt every year and maybe won something.

Right after the Titans drafted Young, but before that season started I saw an interview with Young.. I think it was ESPN, or somewhere.. That's not important..

Anyway it was only about a 5 min interview... Young could barely form a sentence.. He came across as being as dumb as a rock, AND he talked like he didn't give a shit about anything. He figured his athleticism was going to carry him through the NFL, like it did in college. But at the QB position in the NFL you need ALOT more than just athleticism to be successful.

I remember this because while I was watching that interview I remember thinking why would any team draft this guy? I mean these NFL teams spend MILLIONS studying, and planning and looking at these draft picks.. Yet just in this 5 min interview anyone can see this guy never ever going to make it in the NFL.. He was going to take the easiest path. He had no drive or desire.. I just never understood it. If someone took a shot at him in the 6th or 7th round, ok.. That I understand.. BUT the 3rd pick?????!!! My God!

But if the owner wanted him, and his intervention was why they drafted Young.. Well, that explains a lot.. Actually that explains it all.. Wow..

Sports talk radio here in NY some so called draft experts are reporting Manziel will go no higher the 20th.. Wilson and Rogers use their running ability to get OUT of trouble..Which is all good... The Manziel's and Tebow's(already out of the game) and Griffins(2 years he's already been beat-up) use their legs to get INTO trouble, and in the NFL that is very dangerous, much more dangerous than it is in college. The defenses in the NFL are much faster and smarter, which means running QB's life span's are short in the NFL.. Manziel's under 6 foot, and he runs constantly, so some are looking at Manziel as a 1-2 year QB, tops.. Which isn't a top 5 pick.. Hell he shouldn't even be a 1st round pick.. BUT the ink and excitement alone might be worth picking him in the 1st round.. He sells tickets..

We'll see.

Well, the Bucs? Perennial losers.. But we'll see.

Saw an ESPN thingy on Villanueva about a week ago.. Would be a damn fine signing.

Bortles goes before Manziel...lol

Manziel at the 20th pick might be right?

And the Browns, who were rumored to be a sure thing to pick Manziel trade down..
