Pending a physical, McNair is on his way to Baltimore in a trade that is believed to involve a fourth-round choice in 2007. Those were terms that have been discussed for the past several weeks between the two teams. There is a possibility the draft pick could become a third-round choice depending on his playing time and performance in 2006.
The Titans released a statement Wednesday that spelled out McNair's departure. "We have granted permission to Baltimore to give Steve McNair a physical, which we expect to take place in the next 24 hours," the Titans said in statement. "Upon passing a physical, final trade terms will be agreed upon."

I say week 15 of 06. Fisher will try to keep him out as long as possible (like he did with McNair), but will fold when the season is basically done.

VY has a ton of athletic ability as we all have seen. However, UT's offense isn't that complicated(zone read and react) and we are talking the NFL here. I say there must be nobody else on the roster worth a damn for him to start at all this year. Baptism by fire could happen tho if Tenn. tanks early in the year.

I pray Vince and Chow find a way to make the mobiity of VY a real weapon in the NFL not just a broken play threat, say like most of Vick's talent is used for.
Remember, Troy Aikman went 0-11 as a starter his rookie year. Peyton Manning, chucked 28 interceptions. Vince will struggle JUST LIKE those guys but down the line he's going to be something special IMO.
