NFL  > Tennessee Titans  > Ok, so you're Jeff Fisher and Co.......

Here's the deal.

You are Jeff Fisher and Co. and you have decided that you want a WR in the 1st rd. Crabtree, Maclin, and Harvin are off the board. You know the system, the Titan run-first style of play. You know your team favors bigger possession guys that can block, but can't deny the explosiveness of a smaller burner. Do you go with one of the favorites (Nicks or Heyward Bey) or reach for a lesser known (like Barden)?

Choose, but choose wisely....

Darrius Heyward-Bey. But they will have to move up to get him. His size speed ratio is too good. He may be the first receiver drafted quite frankly.

Well, I would go with Darrius Heyward-Bey, because he just seems more reliable as a receiver. But as Perfectpants Said, He might be drafted first. Since we've gotten Nate Washington (Steelers old WR), we should take a good receiver in the first round to make our receiver core alot better. It will also help with our running game if the other teams have an extra person out of the box. Then we should be looking to replace Albert Hayensworth.

I'm a Titans fan from Australia, and i personally think it's the best game ;D.

Barden, sure hands , big solid and strong, and can be a monster in the red zone.

Heyward-Bey.

Not going to happen! WR Patrick Turner will be taken in the 4th round and Marko Mitchell in the 6th. The Titans won't spend an early pick on a WR...

Not happening! JF and MR will wait on Patrick Turner in the 4th round and take Marko Mitchell in the 6th.

Honestly, (cowboyjoker) I'm with you. I don't think the Titans will take a WR in the 1st unless somebody drops a bunch of places into their laps. The WR core has gotten better as a whole and they are likely to bet on that success increasing and then add to it with some later picks. Frankly it's fine with me as long as the core continues to improve.

I also see them going for Robiskie in the 6th if he is still around .He is a good receiver with clean routs
