Pete Prisco of CBSSportsline.com has come out with his annual list of the Top 50 NFL players, and the Titans have 2 players on the list. Here’s the two Titans on the list: 32. Michael Roos, T, Titans: He doesn’t get the credit he deserves, but he’s one of the best. Forms half of the [...]

The offensive line was the strength of the 2008 team and should be again in 2009. It all starts with the bookends at tackle with Michael Roos and David Stewart . Roos finally got the credit he deserves last season with a Pro Bowl bid, and Stewart is one of the nastiest players in the league. Don't be surprised to see him in Hawaii Miami next season. Both guards were new last season with Jake Scott...

"Vince’s desire has always been to compete for the starting quarterback job in Tennessee," Adams said. "Even before...
Ok, I stole this from Sklz711 over at Windy City Gridiron ( link ), the Bears blog site. Since things are slow all around the NFL right now and I don't feel like going to bed yet, I decided to rip his format and go over the roster spots for the Titans before they have to reach the 80 man roster limit. Below are the players currently on roster (according to wikipedia , players in italics are rookies)...
I know these don't really mean anything, but The Sporting News ranked the top NFL players at each position . Six Titans made the list. The only positions that had no Titans included were Inside Linebacker, Guard, Center, Wide Receiver, Fullback, and Quarterback. I found it quite surprising that pro bowl center Kevin Mawae and fullback Ahmard Hall didn't make the list. Also surprising is that first...

Found these stats posted by Balto at WPI (he didn't link to where he got them, so I'll just have to take his word for their accuracy) and thought it would be an interesting conversation piece: Left Tackle (sacks allowed) 1. Ryan Clady (Broncos) 0.5 sacks allowed (16 starts) 2. Michael Roos (Titans) 1.0 sacks allowed (16 starts) *PRO-BOWL* 3. Tra Thomas (Eagles) 2.0 sacks allowed (16 starts) 3. Orlando...
Here's Mel Kiper's draft grade for the Titans' 2005 draft: Tennessee Titans: B Corner Adam Jones fills a huge need for the Titans and Michael Roos is a very good tackle for Tennessee to add in the second round. Courtney Roby is an average receiver and Brandon Jones is OK, but I actually like fourth-round wideout Roydell Williams more than either Roby or Jones . Running back Damien Nash was a stretch...
The Associated Press named their All-Pro team on Friday and the Titans were very well represented. Center Kevin Mawae, left tackle Michael Roos, defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth and cornerback Cortland Finnegan were all named to the first team. Right tackle David Steward was named to the second team. The Titans had just 2 players (Haynesworth and Rob Bironas) make the team last season. Full teams...
It's just been announced that Ryan Clady was named to the AP's All-Pro team as a second-team tackle. Clady was firmly third in the voting - first-teamer Jordan Gross received 34 votes, while Michael Roos got 32. Clady garnered 14 votes and outdistanced the rest of the field in doing so. Behind Clady, several players tied with 3 votes each. Congrats to Ryan! While he might have been screwed in terms...
Congrats to Titans Cortland Finnegan, Albert Haynesworth, Chris Hope, Michael Roos, Kevin Mawae and Crazy Legs for making the Pro Bowl ! To a man these guys are a huge part of this team's incredible run and have indisputably earned the recognition they'll be getting... unlike Brett Favre (at least this year). Cortland Finnegan fears no wide receiver, tight end or quarterback, but his fear of flying...
NFL.com has the announcement up as to who made the Pro Bowl this year. Of the Broncos, Jay Cutler made it along with Brandon Marshall. That’s right, no Ryan Clady. Our standout rookie left tackle didn’t get a nod. In his place are Joe Thomas (as expected), Jason Peters, and Michael Roos. The Roos selection [...]
From: Total Titans The 2009 Pro Bowl rosters have been released and there is anything but a shortage of Tennessee Titans headed to Honolulu. Albert Haynesworth, Cortland Finnegan and Kevin Mawae were named as starters and three other Titans; Chris Johnson, Michael Roos and Chris Hope, were selected as reserves. For those who are counting, that’s [...]
