    Yeah, I was shocked when they picked him 8th, but I'm happy with it. The Titans needed to take a chance on a QB and since there weren't any great prospects I think he was the best option.

    last year he would have been a steal at 8, so you kinda gotta hope for the best i would say.

    Yeah that was my thinking. He might have gone first overall last year, hope there was good reason for that.

    I have a feeling you're REALLY going to like jake. I held out hope he'd be there at 25.
    "cmon kiper! Say he sucks again! Drop him on your big board!"

    There was a rumor the Titans were going to take Dalton at 8.. If they did that I don't know what I would have thought. I didn't want Gabbert either so I'm very happy with this pick. I didn't even consider it really.
