@jthom1: But told those Rams talks with Titans amount to "nothing meaningful."

Ya know, sometimes the hype up to the draft is more fun and exciting than the actual draft!

Won't be the Rams, but some crazy shit is gonna happen this year, just like it always does. Though my money is still on the crazy shit happening with pick #3.

Jets will move up and draft Mariota IMHO.

The fact that they contacted at all shows that they want Mariota, and recent history tells us that Snead usually gets what he wants. Mofo has mind control over GMs.

Jim Wyatt has covered the Tennessee Titans since the team moved into LP Field for the 1999 season, which ended with a trip to Super Bowl XXXIV.

A Nashville native who attended Father Ryan High School, Wyatt worked part-time at The Tennessean from 1990-1997 before behind hired full-time as high school sports coordinator/writer for the paper. In 1999-2000 he covered the Titans and Predators for the paper, before becoming the Titans’ full-time beat writer in 2001.

Wyatt was recently named sportswriter of the year in the state of Tennessee by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association. Wyatt has been named NSSA sportswriter of the year in Tennessee six times.


Well, at least this guy has some credentials... doesn't mean he's not trying to stir shyte.

This is true. It's all about dat hair. GMs are so entranced by it they don't notice Les is behind them, bending them over the barrel. Again and again.

Rams call Titans about No. 2 spot (Mariota)
• By Jim Thomas

Marcus Mariota and the Rams? Well, the team talked to Tennessee about the No. 2 overall spot according to a couple of sources. But one of those sources said the conversation resulted in "nothing meaningful."

So it may have been exploratory at best on the part of the Rams, who may take a quarterback sometime over the three-day draft, which starts Thursday night.

According to the Tennessean in Nashville, the Cleveland Browns, Philadelphia Eagles, New York Jets, and the Rams have all shown interest in moving up to the No. 2 spot for Mariota, the quarterback from Oregon.

If the Rams stay at No. 10 overall, the most likely selection is an offensive lineman _ either Iowa's Brandon Scherff, Stanford's Andrus Peat, or possibly Ereck Flowers of Miami (Fla.)

It was finally confirmed Thursday afternoon that Scherff did not make a pre-draft visit to Rams Park. But the Rams remain interested in him and he's thought to be highly-rated on their draft board.

All nine previous first_ or second-round draft picks by coach Jeff Fisher and general manager Les Snead over their prior three Rams drafts have been players who made pre-draft visits to Rams Park.

But this may simply be a case where the Rams knew enough about Scherff _ feeling he was clean medically and in terms of character _ so they didn't think a visit was necessary. That was the case last year with Notre Dame's Zack Martin, whom the team liked a lot but ended up going to Dallas where he became a Pro Bowl guard as a rookie.

It seems all but a certainty that the Rams won't have LSU tackle/guard La'el Collins in their plans. Collins is generally considered among the top four offensive line prospects in this year's draft, along with Scherff, Peat, and Flowers.

Baton Rouge, La., police want to question Collins after his ex-girlfriend was murdered, although Collins is not considered a suspect. According to reports, he hasn't seen her since September. But Collins may be asked to take a paternity test because the ex-girlfriend, Brittany Mills, was pregnant at the time she was murdered and the baby survived.

With NFL teams apparently backing off Collins just hours before the draft, Collins' agent is petitioning to take Collins out of the draft, let him clear his name, and then enter the supplemental draft this summer.

If JT reports anything, assume the opposite, because the Rams are likely feeding information so false Richard Nixon would be impressed.
