When fans of the NFL tune in for the first round of the Draft most of them are seeing a lot of these players for the first time. But for an NFL franchise http://www.arizonacardinalsteamonline.com/zach-allen-jersey , the process of selecting a draft pick, especially a first round one, starts seven months, or more, before the draft, when scouts and front office personnel begin looking at the college ranks to find that diamond in the rough.The process can be grueling and painstakingly detailed but in the end Cullen Gillaspia Jersey , each team has a war room and inside that war room lies the key to the entire process, the draft board. The draft board is built after all of the scouting, interviews, research, and debating over who should be ranked where. It is the bible to many teams and that board is their own. It is how they make their picks when they are on the clock.The moment a team decides to make their picks without consulting that board is when mistakes happen and this is something that can occur more often than you would think because of all the chaos inside the war room. Coaches, owners Rock Ya-Sin Jersey , and scouts sit around coming up with arguments about who to take and when but when the clock goes live, they have 15 minutes.It sounds like enough time to make a selection but it is just not that simple. The 15 minutes flies by when all of the war room is talking and debating about who to take. Trades are a key factor in this chaos because other teams might move ahead of yours to take a player you always wanted. This leaves teams with a frantic 15 minutes to come up with a new plan.Some of them work out, others do not. So let’s take a look at the worst draft picks from every year since 1999. NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Music City and the NFL are throwing quite a party for the draft, and the Tennessee Titans will be a couple of miles away at team headquarters quietly biding their time until hitting the clock.“We’re going to have to sit and wait for a while till we’re picking there at 19 — if we stay at 19,” general manager Jon Robinson said.The Titans hold the 19th pick overall after coming up a victory short of a second straight playoff berth in coach Mike Vrabel’s debut season. They have six total draft picks a year after drafting only four players http://www.indianapoliscoltsteamonline.com/ben-banogu-jersey , and the general manager who has made 14 trades since being hired in January 2016 has shown he’s willing to move. Robinson traded up in the first two rounds last year to take linebackers Rashaan Evans and Harold Landry III.Now the Titans must decide how to help Marcus Mariota with the quarterback going into his fifth and final season under contract.Mariota has yet to start all 16 games in any of his first four seasons, and the Titans made sure to upgrade their backup quarterback by trading with Miami for Ryan Tannehill. They also released Blaine Gabbert, who went 2-1 in Mariota’s place last season with the one loss in the regular-season finale.Tennessee goes into the draft with no specific holes after signing left guard Rodger Saffold, wide receiver Adam Humphries and linebacker Cameron Wake in free agency. Robinson also kept safety Kenny Vaccaro off the market, signing the veteran to a four-year deal two days before free agency opened, and bringing back offensive lineman Kevin Pamphile and running back David Fluellen.Perhaps adding a blocker such as North Carolina State center Garrett Bradbury would be wise on Day 1 of the draft.Improving wherever possible is the goal after going 9-7 in three consecutive seasons with only one playoff berth.“We all have to figure out how we can go from good to great Parris Campbell Jersey ,” Vrabel said. “We have to go from good to great. We have been 9-7 the past three years, which is stuck in the middle.”Some things to know about the Titans:PASS RUSHDrafting another outside linebacker is a must even with Wake replacing Brian Orakpo, who retired a day after the season ended. The Titans traded up to No. 41 last year for Landry who is in position to start with veteran Derrick Morgan no longer under contract. Landry tied for third on the team with 4½ sacks starting three of his 15 games. Sharif Finch also should play more after the undrafted rookie had 1½ sacks, but more depth is a must for a defense that had 39 sacks last season.PROTECTING MARIOTAThe Titans remade the interior of the offensive line, letting left guard Quinton Spain leave as a free agent for Buffalo and cutting right guard Josh Kline after he declined to rework the three years left on his contract. Pamphile is expected to have a chance at right guard. Center Ben Jones is going into the final year of his contract, while the Titans have not announced yet whether they will pick up right tackle Jack Conklin’s fifth-year option after injuries limited him to nine games last season.MARIOTA’S STATUSRobinson made clear that Mariota is the Titans’ starter with Tannehill brought in to push the younger quarterback. The Titans used their fourth and final draft pick last year at quarterback Will Harris Jersey , though Luke Falk was waived in the final roster cuts. The Titans are determined to help Mariota grow after he set the franchise record completion rate at 68.2% percent last season. Keeping Mariota healthy is the first step after he was sacked a career-worst 42 times.“We’re excited that Marcus is our quarterback,” Vrabel said. “I just think the durability of the player is critical. We only have so many guys. … Being available is critical.”MORE TARGETSThe Titans could use another tight end with veteran Delanie Walker coming off a broken ankle that ended his season in the opener, especially with Jonnu Smith winding up on injured reserve himself. Considering Humphries would have led the Titans with his 76 catches and five TD receptions last season, more help for a still-young receiving group remains an option.TRADED PICKSThree of the Titans’ picks come within the first 82 selections. They sent their sixth-round pick to Baltimore last September in a deal for linebacker Kamalei Correa and their seventh-round selection to Miami as part of a trade for Tannehill. Tennessee also netted the Dolphins‘ second pick in the sixth round.
