Titans trade #1 pick

[SilentHill]

Rams receive: 1st round pick (1 overall); 4th round pick (113); 6th round pick (177).

 

Titans: 1st round pick (15 overall); 2nd round pick (43); 2nd round pick (45); 3rd round pick (76); 1st round pick in 2017; 3rd round pick in 2017.

 

WOAH!

[PeterBowman]

wonder what this does to the draft now?

[IndyD4U]

Talk about a Kings ransom. WOW! 

[Defjamz26]

Gotta be for Jared Goff

[PeterBowman]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand every mock draft has just been busted lol

[BProland85]

If their new GM Jon Robinson can find good players with those added picks Indy could be in trouble. 

 

This further cements my thought that Grigson better work some trade magic himself and add more draft picks.

It makes it very bag for Indy. The Titans can build a contender with this draft alone.

That'd be a huge mistake and honestly I think it was a mistake anyways trading up this far for 1 of  2 QBs who are not sure fire franchise QBs.

I can't see Goff.  I think they are going Wentz

[2006Coltsbestever]

Goes to show how important the QB position is. A team cant win without a Franchise QB. Well it cant win unless you have a dominating Defense and you still need Good/smart QB play to win SB's. To me though Goff nor Wentz isn't anything like Andrew so the Rams are taking a huge gamble.

If anybody could do that it would be the Rams.  Their entire team is stacked everywhere except QB and maybe WR.  Plus they still have some more picks in this draft to add to that.

[MTC]

Titans obviously won the trade. 

 

Mariota + DeMarco + Walker + Green Beckham + 6 picks in the first 3 rounds.

 

oh boy. 

[MTC]

Also Rams better pray that Wentz/Goff turns out to be great.

[coltsfan77]

Remember what the cowboys did with those picks for Walker. Do not have a good feeling with titans that were already improving, stock piling all those picks. Cowboys were hard to beat after that trade.

because if not, this could be the modern day version of the Herschel Walker trade.

They have no O.Line though and just gave up Tunsil. Both teams are taking a gamble. The Draft is a crapshoot.

If the Titans had Jimmy Johnson I would be worried, they don't.

TN is not taking a gamble. They have little talent at a ton of positions and one player couldn't change that.

Goff might be the safer bet. A few analyst had them taking him before this. Plus some sources say Goff is the top guy with teams and it's not as close as some think.

[rockywoj]

Insane price paid by the Rams.   4 short years ago Redskins did the same insane thing and look at how it (didn't) worked for them!

 

Only way such a trade can be justifiable is if there is a Peyton Manning or Andrew Luck sitting there for the taking, and even then that's debatable.   I don't see a HOF QB being available.   Perhaps time will prove me wrong, but I think HUGE mistake by the Rams ... and it kind of sucks for the Colts.

[pgt_rob]

Geeeeees... Could be huge for the Titans.

Good move...Tennessee!!

and they already have their QB,,cost controlled for 4 more years

[BullsColtsFan1]

Titans did real well in this deal.  L.A. will get the QB they wanted but they gave up a lot.  On the flip side of it, they received dang near the same deal if not better in the RGIII deal

If you were to ask me who got the better of this deal, I would say Tennessee but that is mainly because I am not sold on Goff or Wentz becoming a Franchise QB. Having said that if Tennessee whiffs on most of these picks then it wont matter. We will see what they do with their picks. Their O.Line and Secondary both stink so we will see.

When I look at what Fisher(not what pundits say) has been successful with in the past I say Wentz.  Big strong arm quarterback who can tuck it and run. Plus very smart.

No it doesn't.  Matter of fact I would bet a large sum of your money that this move is for Wentz.

[OffensivelyPC]

If there was ever a draft to trade away the number 1 pick for a ton of picks, this would be the one.  Wow, what a haul.  If the Titans actually make good on those picks and Mariota pans out, they'll be a tough win in the next several years.

It is a QB driven league.  If you think that Wentz or Goff can be an elite, franchise level QB then you do what you have to do to get him and don't look back.  

 

I think it is far from a certainty that the Titans were the clear winner.  Plus I don't think that will be known for a few years anyway.

Plus you have to remember where Steve Mcnair came from.  Small School just like Wentz so I'm not sure how high the risk factor is for Fisher.  The biggest safety net is going to be the fact that they can rely on that running game with Gurley. And Wentz would be very good coming off the play action pass.  Plus you have that defense, and I'm sure the rams are going to beef up the WR corps this year.

[buccolts]

The Rams don't need this guy to be a HOF QB. They're very talented elsewhere, cept WR which can be easily had, and could use some OL. They only need their new QB to be pretty good, and there's a steep price for pretty good QBs these days.

 

The Titans haven't won anything 'cept more opportunities. They still have to make the picks, and the picks have to pan out. The only thing it likely guarantees is that the Titans will get younger.

 

And, no, Grigs doesn't NEED to obtain more picks if value isn't there. This isn't a race to compile more picks.

Skins gave up 3 1st round picks for a QB who couldn`t run a Pro-style offense. Both (Wentz and Goff) are better options coming in than RGme ever was.

#Rams source says Wentz is the pick. Said decision was made awhile ago. Said trade haggling took awhile.

That is impossible to determine before the picks have been made and the players ever take the field

It obviously depends on Mariota.  I think he's shown some good signs, but he's still got the training wheels on.  If his game even comes close to Russell Wilson, the Titans will be very, very good.  

[crazycolt1]

Just about all the GMs in the league are more than likely saying to themselves crap, now we have to redo our board! lol

Noted. I think they'd be fine with either though. I just wonder how good Wentz will be immediately in arguably the toughest division in Football coming from NDSU.
