he actually looks pretty good as a WR, but if he doesn't want to play that position then what's teh point!?!?!?
FIND SOMEONE WHO LIKES THE GAME !

it wouldn't be easy after your brother gets paralyzed and later dies due to playing football...
sounds like a reach to me

it's not that he doesn't want to play, it seems like he doesn't know which position !

those are some nice highlights!
we will not know for awhile whether these picks pan out...they definitely no more than we do, but i hope this isn't reinsfeldt doing the picking! they said he was a cap guru and not much of a scout

i'm starting to see a trend with these picks....
they are all great athletes. whether or not they will be good football players is yet to be seen.
even if we move williams to CB, he could be good if he plays with the attitude he does at WR.
it's going to be interesting to see how these guys can meld with our team.
for the record, we should have taken booker instead of henry (booker is already proven to be the change of pace type of back)

Chris Henry-RB- Titans Apr. 28 - 8:13 pm et
Titans selected Arizona RB Chris Henry with the No. 50 pick in the NFL Draft.
Henry has possibly the best computer numbers of any back in the draft but we are shocked the Titans would invest a second-round pick in a straight-line track athlete. It is better for LenDale White than Michael Turner would've been. It now appears Turner is headed to Green Bay.

Paul Williams-WR- Titans Apr. 28 - 10:25 pm et
Titans selected Fresno State WR Paul Williams with the No. 80 overall pick in the NFL Draft.
A great pick for value. Williams had some off-field troubles after his brother, also a college football player, died due to an accident in a game. But he had an excellent showing in pre-draft workouts and has all-world upside. It's very possible Williams will be competing to start as a rookie in Tennessee's weak on-paper receiver group.

I think the Titans wanted Moss, but Denver jumped ahead and picked him away.
Nelson might have been a better pick, but as I told Anthony, I think he has dreds and I'm not sure that Griffin does, so maybe that was the intangible that put Griffin higher on their board.
nope, he has dreads also...

They are shorter dreds. I investigated this.
They took Williams because there was nothing else there at WR. There was a rund on WRs late in the third round.
I'm kind of baffled by the Henry pick.

i've watched the Paul Williams highlights about 3 times now.... i really like that guy!
it may have been a reach in the 3rd, but they wanted to make sure they got him!
A LOT OF ATTITUDE WHEN HE PLAYS !!!
