With the free agent signings, and this, the Titans made solid moves to strengthen the defense.

Titans going all in on their draft with undersized LBs, this time selecting Harold Landry by trading away their 3rd rounder. I don't think they pick again until the end of the 5th.

Not sure about this pick but I am very sure about the Titans GM and their need for D Help! Ready for some football!

I really don't like the pick seeing as how Justin Reid is still available past 57 and now you don't have that pick at 89 which is someone who will give you good backup reps.

Titans took Luke Faulk in the 6th, first QB they have drafted since Marcus. According to ESPN, they feel he I will be a third string developmental QB. I wonder if he is a future trade option if Marcus stays healthy. I am a bit surprised Faulk slid as far as he did.

Draft Grades are in, Titans get a B overall.

New coaching staff already helping Marcus, he's developing a new way of delivering the ball incorporating live action and film study, and will see a much more pass happy offense with new OC, Matt LaFleur, formerly of the LA Rams and Jared Goff.

It's not a new throwing motion, he's working on keeping his stance more wide than he has in the past when he's gotten a narrow base. This helps him throw but should not be confused with his throwing motion/arm itself.

Wasn't confused, just taking it from the article:Mariota knows change won't come easy, considering he has – for the most part – used the same stance and throwing motion since he was a kid. But he said that through watching film and working through new drills, he expects to see a difference.

You do understand that the quote you just used doesn't actually say that he's changing his throwing motion. In fact, at no point in the article does it say he's changing his throwing motion. It does say he's working on widening his stance which is why that quote that you used erroneously says he expects to see a difference.

Thanks for your insight.

It's great news to hear that the guy whoes main purpose is to protect Marcus Mariota is getting paid...A LOT!

The team announced Friday it has signed the Pro Bowl left tackle to a "multi-year" extension. Numerous reports put the terms at $80 million over five years, with $50 million guaranteed — totals that would make Lewan the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history.

Now if the year can get Conklin healthy and have him come back strong, torn ACL in the playoffs last season. He's at camp but unable to participate yet. It was great to see Lewan show up to camp without a contract signed yet!
