Data Overload, Paralysis By Analysis For Titans Fans

I've reached the point of near exhaustion when it comes to the over-analysis of every aspect of the coming NFL Draft.

In this story:


NASHVILLE - A wise old teacher told me long ago that you can overanalyze something to the point of becoming paralyzed by it. Or, more succinctly, as he put it, paralysis by analysis.   

That's where I, and likely some who will read this are today, Friday, April 21, still six very long days away from the beginning of the 2023 NFL Draft. 

While this is not my first rodeo leading up to the draft, this year seems like there are so much more data, analysis, and rumors that my brain is becoming paralyzed by it all. 

Don't get me wrong; data is a good thing, and having multiple streams of information to help make a difficult decision is good if you are the one making the decisions. However, it's mind-numbing for the rest of us, who are overanalyzing this whole process in some hopeless attempt to find a clue as to what our teams are thinking. 

Therefore, in the interest of mental health, it's time to stop overanalyzing what the Tennessee Titans might be planning to do in six days and spend more thought on what needs to be done. 

All the analysis in the world isn't going to reward us with an answer magically; it's only opening up more questions for more analysis.

 So what is it that the Titans need to do?

That's easy and doesn't require much thought. Upgrade the talent and depth on this roster.  

In six days, they will get their chance to do just that.
