Head Coach Jeff Fisher and GM Les Snead – First Round Draft Press Conference
April 26, 2012
(On first round pick Michael Brockers)
Snead: “He was one of our top rated players on the board. We felt like we have two young, good to very good ends and we signed (DT) Kendall Langford, so being one of our better players on the board, not only do we get one of the players we wanted, but we made the defensive line unit one of our strongest units on the team.”
(On the thought process in trading down from pick 6 to pick 14)
Snead: “I’m not going to name the players but there were multiple players that we really liked at that pick (No. 6), but we also had a plan that we talked about all week. If they didn’t fall there then we would try to move back and pick up another pick, and the goal was to pick up another second so that we could spread the pick and get more and also get a player we wanted.”
