Ex-Titans GM Floyd Reese said he’d be interested in the vacant Lions GM job. He said the Detroit franchise is one of the “real uncut gems” in the league. Uh, yeah.
Reese helped direct the Oilers-slash-Titans to a ton of wins, plus a Super Bowl (loss). From 1999-2003 no team won more games than Tennessee’s 56. He drafted Steve McNair, Eddie George, Jevon Kearse, and Keith Bulluck. Reese also had the final say on drafting Pacman Jones and Vince Young. Now the Young pick looks especially bad. Heck, Cutler played for Vanderbilt, some 12 min. from Reese’s Nashville home. They knew Jay was a bazooka-armed prototype with no fear… and passed on him. Reese was also responsible for the Titans’ brutal 3-year stay in salary cap jail from 2003-2005. But if he worked for a deep-pocket owner like William Clay Ford they could go “cash-over-cap” like the Redskins and start luring big free agents. Reese also probably sees Detroit’s got dibs on QB Tim Tebow in the draft.
