As has been pointed out by others online, Jeff Fisher pretty much did more to help the Titans today than he did when he coached there.

I think its a decent trade for the Rams, like Pagal said they did move up 14 spots. Now they can take who they want to.

All depends on how they do next year; if its a top 5 pick then this deal sucks, if its a mid round pick then it'll be a fair trade, if somehow the pick is in the 20s then trade win for the Rams.

Meh, he did well in Tennessee. Did take them to the Super Bowl on the Music City Miracle. Also McNair, Eddie George, Wychek etc. He had a decent team there.

The 07/08 teams weren't terrible either

The value in the trade isn't off. Fairly consistent with the price of moving up.

But for Wentz?

San Diego is going to end up with the #1 ranked player in the draft.

Simply an amazing trade for the Titans as I can't believe the Rams would give up this much for a 1st overall pick in a draft like this where there isn't an Andrew Luck. I'm sorry but Wentz or Goff are not 1st overall pick caliber QB's and in some drafts wouldn't even be first round picks. I get that the Rams want to make a splash in LA but this is not the way to do it.

FWIW, Mayock has said he thinks Goff and Wentz are as good of prospects as Mariota and Winston were. PFF also has Goff ranked higher than Mariota was last year. I don't think I agree but there are some out there who really like these two.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Yeah but to be fair Mayock (infamously) said JaMarcus has the best pro day he'd ever seen by far. With Jameis or Mariota or Luck, they were pegged for the top 5 at least a full year out from when they were projected to come out (in Luck's case, he was pegged for #1 as a freshman so...). People had high thoughts about them for a while. With Goff and Wentz, it all basically started as soon as the draft cycle began. So they are much more unknown prospects overall, and if they played any position but QB we'd probably not know very much about them. The demand for average QB play is off the charts right now (see Osweiler, Brock).

[Senator Clay Davis]

So some of the schedule has leaked....Carolina at Denver is the opening night game. Shocked frankly they chose it considering Denver's QB situation, but maybe Denver's D can score 4 TDs.

Oh and speaking of Denver (sorry Broncos fans), Percy Harvin has retired. That game is basically his NFL legacy (and migraines and being hurt).

In most drafts a good QB emerges. Not often does a QB emerge after the first round.

Johnny Shrooms or Johnny Eightball, take your pick

Manziel, who comes from a Texas oil family and whose NFL future is in peril, rented a house in West Hollywood for two days last week with a pal. The pair’s said to have thrown two all-night ragers that prompted neighbors, including comic Kathy Griffin, to call police.

It’s claimed Manziel and his group left the house strewn with booze and drugs, broke an expensive glass table and a bathroom door, and left wine stains and cigarette burns on carpets. Pictures obtained by Page Six show lines of suspicious white powder on a table, and an open bag of what is claimed to be magic mushrooms.

Thought I'd throw this out on here. Flights are booked now looking for tickets.

I know lots of people here go to arizona and thought there might be season ticket holders.

If any one has tickets or know someone with tickets please send me a PM.

Bears have the 2nd easiest schedule going into 2016. That should sit them comfortably right in that .500 range.

Not good enough for playoffs, not bad enough for a good draft pick

Jesus Christ, why do the Eagles always same to play the Seahawks in November? Seattle is much nicer in September and October. And yes, moving to the West Coast has made me a giant wuss when it comes to "cold" weather.
