Looks like the Titans are through with D. Henry. Tried to trade him and only getting a handful of touches per game. Such a shame because I think the guy wants it so bad and he could be an everyday back. Unfortunately he is at his best when he gets 25 carries a game and needs an offense built around the running game (like the Titans the last 2 years).

Maybe he will get another chance with a team more suited for his game. Heck it took the Saints a year or two before they realized how good they could be with a running game!

This new coach has no idea how to use him...none at all. If you don't want to run him 25 times, then throw it to him out of the backfield for crying out loud.

They did resign Jalston as a way to have a power blocking back -- but then had him inactive for the last game.

How do these coaches get these jobs? The Titans have gone backwards, big time.

Lot can change between between now and Jan.... I'm little surprised Raekwon Davis is at #15, given his performance this season for most part. I understand he's getting double teamed a lot, but so is Q. Williams. Just amazing! Mack just need to improve his draft stock by being consistent with his game. Mack is probably gone this year.. no matter what we think... I don't know how he can improve his stock next year. I expect Irv Smith to be in top 20 when it's over and done with.

Yup. Over and over over the last 2 years he has been deadly in the 2nd half, hitting home runs of 50 plus yards. He got , what 4 touches in the 2nd half Monday night?

Speaking of Henry , he had 9 less rushes and had more yards than Lewis. Why is it he isn't starting? Is it because the new coach doesn't know how to use him or thinks he doesn't fit the NFL running back model?
I'm hoping that Drake goes somewhere else too. Miami sure has turned their back on him.

Don't forget Ryan Anderson with a crucial forced fumble.

I say that the coach doesn't know how or doesn't want to use him in a manner than fits him best. He wants a small, scat back to dart and dash...rather than a bull dozer who can run 100 mph.

As for KD, I have never been fully sold on him. He goes almost too fast at times -- even to the point of being out of control -- which leads to the fumbling problem. A better sense of timing and seeing the holes would help him dramatically...as would a really good OL!

Let’s not forget Mark Barron. Former safety converted into OLB. He had 6 tackles against Seattle. He has almost 600 career tackles.
