I have had several people ask me, who would you take? Tannehill or Wentz, I say Wentz but by a hair. Still very important, Pitt leads 16-13 haha 

They are kind of the same. Tannehill needs Henry. Colts would be same without Taylor. But a lot of that is weak WR group on both teams. Jones wrong out with a hamstring again. I think Wentz still has a higher ceiling if Ballard goes out and fixes the WR group.

They are similar, Andrew was better than both but still made mistakes. I would take Andrew over Wentz but Wentz over Tannehill.

If Steelers hang on Titans have a very good chance to lose to SF next week. Best cardinals and we could have same record.

It would be unreal if we won the division somehow. My uncle is a huge Tennessee fan (he lives in KY) and he told me when Henry got injured that we would win the division. I lmao . I said no way - to big of a hole but I always believed we would make the playoffs

I’m wondering the same thing 

It’s almost improbable that we would win the division. Essentially titans would have to lose out (2 of 3) and we win out to get the division.


titans still have 49ers, dolphins, and Texans. I don’t see them losing to the Texans, and probably not the dolphins.


we have the cardinals, raiders, and jaguars.

 

if Titans lose today they are 9-5 and we are 8-6. If they lose next week and we win next week they still own the division. That brings us to the last two games. Titans would have to lose 1 of their last 2 and we would have to win both to overtake the division.

 

I don’t see it happening.

Hahaha Vrabel, even being gifted the most generous spot is still whining he didn’t get the first.

 

I thought the player was at least a yard short. I could not believe the spot was so close to being a first down.

SO. We need to win out, and then TN needs to lose the next two games cuz they aren't losing to Houston week 18. They play the 49ers and the Dolphins. There is a fair shot they lose both those games assuming Henry doesn't magically reappear. There is now a light at the end of the tunnel for the division race!

I'm still not optimistic about it, that's a lot of losing for Tennessee...but if they keep turning the ball over like they did today then yeah! 4 turnovers to 0 is just ridiculous

I can see us winning out assuming the Cardinals aren't going to play with their feet on fire thanks to losing to detroit. The Titans WILL lose to san fran. It will all come down to Titans vs Dolphins. The finns are fighting for the playoffs and are hungry.

I would of course love for us to win the division, but it’s not a given that we win out either. Even the raiders or jaguars could pop us in the mouth unexpectedly…

 

it’s a LOT to go right for the Colts to win the division, I just don’t see it happening unfortunately

That Dolphins Titans game will be huge if Titans lose next week and colts win.

 

Huntley  looks like Lamar but is a better passer. 

We got this , I was never worried even when we were 1-4 Homer Simpson Smile GIF- this is the best team we have had since 2014. I said that year we would be in the AFC Title Game, we will be this year as my bold early prediction.

    • Back to the original post about this, seems like they got something backwards with their Johnson/Hill numbers. Johnson has decimals, Hill has whole numbers. But chart shows Hill will decimals and Johnson with whole numbers.    Johnson - 19 Hill - 6.03     Jimmy Johnson has early 6th round value   + 16.4pts - pick 183-184 range   https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart.asp?RequestTeam=Ind   Rich Hill has late 5th round value #35 - 170pts   #44 - 135pts #110 - 30pts #158 - 10pts #211 - 3pts   +8pts - pick 167-172   https://www.drafttek.com/NFL-Trade-Value-Chart-Rich-Hill.asp?RequestTeam=Ind   Only thing I don't like about Rich Hill's is the value he places on those top 3 picks, where I think Jimmy Johnson's has the advantage in my eyes.   Although I like the value gained on Rich Hill's better. Lol.
    • In essense we got Julius Brents, Adetomiwa Adebawore, Daniel Scott and Titus Leo for #35... I really believe that you have to have a great reason not to trade back when that's the value you are getting. To a huge degree the draft is a crapshoot and the difference in expected value between 35 and 44 is probably negligible. And for the price you get 3 more shots at players, some of them with really high upside too.    Of course, there might be some exceptions to the rule(QBs as always break that rule... maybe some exceptional talent at another high value position), but in general if you can get that type of a deal, you should almost always do the trade back. And I think this is one area where Ballard has actually been great as a GM. 
    • I will say, me personally though, I find more value than an early 6th(compilation of trades).   We got 4 players for the 1 pick(#35), once the dust settled, and got the guy we would of probably taken at #35 in the first place.   So adding (3) guys for "free" essentially, is a big win.   So I would say I lean a little more towards value charts than trade charts for that reason. Maybe somewhere in the middle, late 3rd early 4th "value", and that's mainly because I think we would of took Brents at #35 either way.   Seems teams are closer to the trade chart when making deals, but claim the value charts after deal, if it shows a big win.    
    • I see it now. When I first read it, thought you were saying 1st trade down got 6th round value and 2nd trade got 2nd round value.     Then was blinded by just waking up and already looking for a flaw.   Clearly teams aren't using the value charts as you stated in post above.     Thanks for helping me read out the chart. Should just read the picks we kept and sent out. No need to have them cancel each other out.     EDIT: ahh who am I to tell the guy how to do his charts(have to account for the picks). It was my reading comprehension that caused the problem.
    • It is incoming value from one trade... and then it's outgoing value in the next trade. You are not claiming the value of those picks... they cancel out when you put them in the outgoing picks.    35 for 38+141  then 38 for 44+ 110 then 141 for 158 + 211 ...   when you draw the line you get 35 for 44+110+158+211   Using Johnson: 35(550) for 44(460) + 110(74) + 158(28) + 211(7)... or 550 points for 569 points. Net gain of 19 points, which by Johnson's chart is equivalent of late 5th, early 6th round pick...    Using OTC: 35(1128) for 44(1007) + 110(525) + 158(334) + 211(182) or 1128 points for 2048 points. Net gain of 920 points which is by OTC chart is equivalent to the 60th pick... or thereabout(i.e late second... )
