We win this hands down. Conklin and Dodd are the only ones who impress me out of the Titans group.

Hell, Goff alone wins this hands down.

Felt they over drafted some guys. Not huge on trading up for Conklin at 8.

Not a big Dodd fan. Felt he benefited big from Clemson talent and feasting on Bama's worst starter in a prime time game.

Like Byard and Sharpe. I'm not as down on Henry as most. Him and Murray make an interesting backfield at the least.

Titans are like the Browns IMO. Lots of roster turnover and starter types but not a lot of impact players. Rams have had those types of drafts and they don't put a team over the hump.

That said, the Titans do have a QB. So we'll see.

 

[Angry Ram]

I'm not judging it until next year.

Rams win that just because they needed I only the QB to win.
Titans filled a lot of holes. Big improvement for them .

Look at it like this. Goff wins the Rams 4-5 more games this year. Titans draft gets them 4 more wins maybe. Both got what they wanted.

 

[WvuIN02]

Needs another option. Both were great for their franchises.

Henry will be a beast behind what will be an impressive OL. Goff and Higbee are both going to be stars for the Rams.

 

[Tron]

Until they hit the field, I'll call it a push.

Pretty much. It's not us vs them, it's two franchises who are looking for different things.

 

[-X-]

TBD.

We'll have to see who they get with their (our) first and third next year.
Just like the Redskins/Rams draft, you can't tell until all the picks are in.

That said, who the hell did you think I would vote for? lol.

Trading down to collect more picks means you pass on difference makers. The league is made up of guys that stepup and make plays. Having an outstanding fourth round might add depth but impact guys not so much. I would rather have a mansion than just four homes!

When you look at it like this^, adding in Battle and Keenum, because we use this years picks in order to get them. It's No Contest, Rams Win hands down!!:mrburnsevil:

Confused. Why are Battle and Keenum included in this??

We used our 5th this year to get battle in the supplemental draft last year, and traded our 7th this year to the texans to aquire Keenum.

I give it to the Rams. They acquired the player they have coveted since 2014. The Titans took what they could get. They needed a left tackle because Lewan would be best on the right. But the settled for a less athletic Right tackle. Then they take a DE in a weak DE class. I don't think Dodd was bpa. Austin Johnson was a good pick, so was Sharpe, but I think Byard was taken too early.

Overall the Titans picks look like average NFL players. The Rams pick looks like a game changing franchise player.

As has been pointed out, the Titans draft still includes the Rams first and third next year. So far the Rams have killed it compared to the Titans - getting the impact QB, and then frankly some of the late picks the Rams had look to be as good as earlier picks the Titans did. Two WR steals, Higbee, and two depth players. So the question is, what will the Titans do next year with pick #32 and the comp 3rd they're getting?

As soon as Goff takes RotY and the Rams win the NFC West, I'll call it a win. Until then, I guess I'll wait for next year's Tenn picks. I certainly am leaning towards the good guys for now though.
