Yes, totally ignorant.

I thought that new Titans GM, Ran Carthon, was supposed to be great at player evaluations and knows how to pick great talent with massive upside...WRONG!!!

My ignorant Titans wasted even more draft picks by moving UP to draft....Will Levis...YUKKKK!!!

With Hendon Hooker sitting right there ready to be picked my ignorant Titans pass on him to draft the useless QB from kenSucky.

I just can NOT believe it.

I'm just totally stunned and so pissed off I can't even describe it!!!

Then with the next pick they draft a RB that we don't even need instead of filling our real needs that must be filled.

At this point I really wish there was another NFL Team that I could get really passionate about but there just isn't unfortunately.

Now I don't even care who our last 3 draft picks will be.

It's a good thing that I don't own the Titans because the new GM would be job hunting today!

Rant over but I still don't feel any better.

VFL...GBO!!!

TITAN QB ROOM:

RTannehill, MWillis & WLevis

good grief

We moved to Cincinnati 30 years ago and have remained a Titans fans and continue to wish the best for them and root for them.

However, the force is strong in Cinti and I'm seeing more Bengals gear in my future.

oh, well

In the last few years, the Bengals have become a good team.

This is the 5th OL Titans have taken in first round since 2010. Warmack(2013), Lewan(2014), Conklin(2016), and Wilson(2020). Out of those taken, only Taylor Lewan was worth the pick. In general, only a couple of their 1st round picks have ever "lived up" to their expectations. Locker, Mariota, Wright, Jackson, Davis, are just a few of the sub-par/bust this team has taken to go along with the OL listed. It appears this team does a poor job of evaluating 1st round talent no matter who is running the team. Out of 13 years, Derrick Morgan, Taylor Lewan, & Jeffery Simmons have been the only picks worth their value and 2 of those on defense.

Conklin was All-Pro if memory serves.

The Titans need players all over their roster. It’s highly likely they will finish this draft with only one new starter, and maybe three new non-special teams contributors.

They’ll probably end up drafting Henry To’oto’o…

I feel like Hooker will have a career similar to Dobbs. Levis has a bigger upside. Maybe this will humble him too and make him hungry. A steal at this stage of the draft.

Sorry, I loved when Dobb’s played for Vol’s but Hooker is way more accurate. The running aspect is the only similarity. Hooker is a better prospect and it isn’t even close.

Boring, moribund, trash franchise that loves picking headcases (Whiny Willie Levis, Pac Man, Lewan, etc.). They actually needed another WR more than anything in that round, but went with that UKrap reject and followed it by drafting a RB. And on top of that, they drafted a Tulane twerp over Achane from the Aggies. This franchise is doomed to fail.

The cope on reddit is strong. Guess they want that new fancy stadium to host a SuperBowl because the Titans sure won't be playing in one any time soon

Titans Thread on Reddit

Like said on this board. I don't care that they didn't pick Hooker. I liked the rumors that they were going to go in on Stroud but once Texans took that away.
Their 11th pick wasn't a flashy one but still a solid pick for need and probably the best at that pick. I figured they'd spend this draft fixing the line and getting WR but nope they go get Levis. Earlier the Titans were saying Malik who I think is bad was moving in the right direction and happy with his progress but they go and grab Levis another project in the making . I was wanting them to fill some holes and then next year make the moves to trade up in the top 3, think the Titans is 4th 2024 with the most money to spend. Bring in some good guys, get your QB and go to work but nope. Titans just hanging out being mediocre as always. 1st round playoffs and out.
Levis film doesn't even look impressive and then to throw less that 100yrds against Vandy...

I really like coming to VolNation and seeing the banter about the Vols. I’m glad there is a thread tonight talking about the Titans. Does anyone know of a similar message board for the Titans? I haven’t found a free message board for the Titans with this much fan participation. Thanks.

Reddit or Gotitans.com is prob your best bet

And traded up to get him!! I can't believe they traded away picks to move up and get a Ryan Leaf type player, but what would you expect from a Titans offense that resembles something from the 70's.??
So now the AFC South will have Trevor, CJ, Anthony, & Will as the future QB's of this league. TL will be great and I think CJ will get there. Big question on Anthony & Will, as measurable are there but can it be developed?

When has the Titans developed a QB. Also Titans still seem to want to play Jeff Fisher type ball. I'll take the flack. I wish the Titans would move on to some Offensive minded head coaches.

As for Richardson. I'm not willing to write him off and at least he has a Coach that knows about QB's and the position.
If and it's a big one but if the Colts can get on on the right track, you're looking at a Cam type player. Not that I wanted to see AR in TN. I was hoping to make what ever trades that needed to happen to get into the top 3 and draft a QB that has the it factor. Not a Mel Kiper factor like what they got this year

Man I'm so tired of hearing the look as Josh Allen tripe, blind squirrel finds a nut from time to time.
Titans made a reach last year when they went and got Malik. Should've just rolled with him and Tannehill this season and next draft do like the Texans did as far as drafting..Go get what you need by any means...Titans could've taken care of some key spots this draft and then balled out next season for a QB and with all the cap $ available in 2024...spend it on good players to help round out the new QB

The Titans have made some dumb moves lately but this one takes the cake. If Hooker didn’t have superior production to Levis and hadn’t been talked about as the third-best QB in the draft by some NFL execs and former players, if he didn’t have a comparable arm (according to one scout widely quoted) and vastly superior running ability, it would be different. Teams take players all the time in part because of their local connection to the team; for the Titans to completely disregard that along with Hooker’s talent and production, in favor of a marginal QB from a rival to the Vols, is colossally tone deaf. Titans ownership seems to think their fans will be there no matter what. Like others on here, I would have been a Titans fan had they drafted HH. Now they can pound sand.

Tbf, I don’t know if I’d say Hendon has “vastly” better running ability. Hendon is shiftier, but Levis is pretty damn athletic and a load to bring down. Levis runs more like a horse where Hendon runs almost like a gazelle, very light on his feet.

The biggest difference, obviously, is between the ears.

What the Titans don’t seem to realize is just how much income in merchandise and ticketing they left on the table passing over Hendon. He would have paid for his own salary just in jersey sales and other licensed swag in his first season, even if he didn’t play a single snap. Pretty short sided from a strictly business standpoint if nothing else. Tennessee is different from most other NFL states in that the college team still commands more loyalty than the pro team. A wise front office would take that into consideration.

Huge Titans fan but what I don't understand is that if you like Levis, wouldn't you draft him at 11 and not in the second round? It's difficult to sell me that they really believe in him when they were clearly willing to let another team trade up for him for the rest of the first round. I hope he does well but my expectations aren't particularly high at the moment.
