Pass rusher please. Good lord we need a pass rusher.
I wish we could do what the Boston Celtics did with Larry Bird. I'd take Clowney in the 2013 draft even if he wasn't allowed to play until 2014.

I did some searching around, and apparently, Derrick Morgan has been quietly having a good season. That being said, Wimbley is pretty much better off on just pass rushing downs, and I do agree that for the most part, if we can get an elite pass rusher (whether in the draft or FA), we need to.
I think if we picked up a great interior DT who can pass rush as well as stuff the run, it would help out our DEs greatly. That being said, wouldn't mind a DE either.
For me: DE or DT in the first. You build great defenses from the front up. If you evaluate the Super Bowl teams the past few years, one of the biggest factors has been the ability to get to the passer.

We need to fix our safeties man... They are pretty bad.
We should trade Griff! lol. Doubtful...
Maybe try Tommie Campbell out at FS?
Hopefully Martin is the real deal at SS or were gonna have to draft a safety pretty high.. Is there any good ones coming out this year?
Sorry if there is something about safeties in this thread. Im to lazy to look..

Matt Elam and Robert Lester are the only two truly worthy of first round consideration at this point and at that we're looking at the mid to late first round. Eric Reid has the physical tools as does TJ McDonald but they've had their weaknesses exposed and amplified his year. Unfortunately for both of them that issue is coverage 
We could take a second day flier on a kid like Vaccaro out of Texas who hasn't played really well but kinda got caught in a crap situation or David Amerson in the first who would most likely convert from CB to S in the NFL.

I'm with you lol. My top 5 wants based on talent and team need are 1) Star 2) Warmack (OG Bama) 3) Ryan Nussemeier (DE A&M) 4) Bjorn Werner 5) Matt Elam.

This free agent class is pretty deep with secondary help.
A guy like Dashon Goldson in free agency would give the Titans a defensive leader and an intimidator in the secondary and you could draft the big guys.
It is alway more expensive to pay big guys in free agency.
From an outsiders view I have thought DE was a big need for the Titans a 3 down guy that needs to be schemes for.

Id love to get Goldson, Andy Levitre, and Glenn Dorsey in free agency, then go DE, DB, O-Line, RB in the draft

Too bad we've never been that aggressive in FA. We'll be lucky to get one of those guys. With that said though, ultimately I prefer building through the draft and topping it off with one or two big signings.

I think we have either the 9th or 10th pick that would be decided by a coin flip right now
