The Tennessee Titans added a lot of talent to the team this offseason, but the best player on the team is still Jeffrey Simmons. I'll explain why on today's edition of the Locked On Titans podcast. You are Locked On Titans, your daily Tennessee Titans podcast. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network, your team every day. Welcome to the Locked On Titans podcast. I am your host, Tyler Rowland, Titans fans.

We are continuing Top 5 Week here on the Locked On Titans podcast. On today's show, I am going to rank the top five current Tennessee Titans, with, of course, Jeffrey Simmons at the top of the list. I am going to rank the top five Tennessee Titans of all time. And I'm also going to give you my personal favorite top five Titans of my 25 years of Tennessee Titans

fandom. Before we get into my ranks though, do want to thank you for making the Locked On Titans podcast your first listen each and every day. Remember Monday through Friday, Tennessee Titans content all year round, always for free. You're not going to beat that anywhere else. Make sure that you get subscribed. Stay subscribed. It's your team every day here on the Locked on Titans podcast.

Again, I am your host, Tyler Rowland, 25 years as a Tennessee Titans fanatic. I've covered the team for USA Today, covered the team for Sports Illustrated. I do in-depth film breakdowns over on my YouTube channel at Tic Tac Titans. And of course, I've been the host of the number one Tennessee Titans podcast in the world for five years running.

But with that being said, let's get into my top five Tennessee Titans on the roster right now. Curious to hear what you guys have to say about this. Let me know your top five down below in the YouTube comments or hit me up on Twitter at TicTacTitans and let me know your top five. But number one for me is Jeffrey Simmons. And I don't know if this is controversial or not, but I don't think that it should be.

Jeffrey Simmons is, in terms of full value, you want to look at cap hit, of course it's Harold Landry, but the full contract, the full amount of a contract, Jeffrey Simmons is the highest paid player on the entire team. And he should be. He is the best player on the team. Jeffrey Simmons at his peak, and I know that some people want to take shots at Simmons

because he didn't play the end of last season. He was banged up at the end of the season before that, but I've continued to say that it seems obvious to me that the Titans intentionally shut Jeffrey Simmons down at the end of last year because they were out of playoff contention. Why are we going to risk serious injury to our best player when we can't even make the playoffs? Like, what would be the point in that? There is no point in that. So that's why the Tennessee Titans, in fact, did not take that risk.

They sat Jeffrey Simmons down. I think that Jeffrey Simmons could have played at the end of last year if the Titans were in a playoff chase. Like, that's what I believe. You can't tell me anything different. Look, an interior rusher like Jeffrey Simmons, who can be dominant against the run, who can get to the

quarterback as well. I mean, we have seen Jeffrey Simmons absolutely take over games. And he is, in my opinion, a top three, if you want to be more conservative, top five interior defensive lineman in the entire NFL.

Now Aaron Donald is gone. And in my opinion, at his absolute best, peak Jeffrey Simmons is the best interior defensive lineman in the NFL now. Like, during his run in 2021 where he was absolutely dominant, he was the second best interior defensive lineman in the world behind Aaron Donald, who is, you know, maybe the best defensive player of all time. He's definitely in the top five.

So, I just, the peak of Jeffrey Simmons, his ability to impact games is second to none on the team right now. Jeffrey Simmons is the best player on the Tennessee Titans. But number two is a new addition, and I have it as Legereus Sneed. And again, my calculus here is Legereus Sneed is one of the top five cornerbacks in the NFL. He is top five at his

position in the NFL, just like I feel about Jeffrey Simmons. So how could he not be better than other guys on the team who aren't that high at their position? Nobody else on the team is as highly ranked at their position in the NFL as Jeffrey Simmons and LeJarrius Sneed. So to me, those are the clear-cut top two.

No discussion there. And Jeffrey Simmons, to me, is the better player over LeJarrius Sneed. And the contracts, I think, bear that out. Like, the proof is in the pudding here. Look at what these guys are getting paid. So Simmons and Sneed at the top for me. But after that, it's both the wide receivers. Calvin Ridley and DeAndre Hopkins.

And look, I would understand if you flip this. If you said DeAndre Hopkins is three, Calvin Ridley is four. Alright, that's fine. But I will continue to bang the drum that I have been banging for over a month now that Calvin Ridley is the better player. Calvin Ridley is the more highly paid player. Calvin Ridley was the more highly sought-after player. Calvin Ridley is going to be the Titans' number one wide receiver,

not only this year, but probably next year as well. I believe in Calvin Ridley. I think Calvin Ridley can get back to that 1400 yard season form that he had in his last good year with the Atlanta Falcons last year. Again, people act like you see the conversation about Calvin Ridley online and it's Jack's fan saying, oh, he didn't run the right routes. Oh, he had drops. Oh, this and that. He can't get all press. Calvin Ridley is not the same guy that he was. He's 29. I mean, last I checked, he had 76 catches, a thousand yards and eight

touchdowns last year. And the conversation around Calvin Ridley is like, he's washed. He's a bum. He missed two years of football and then put up that stat line. Like this guy's a freak. The Titans absolutely stole him from Jacksonville and any hate on Calvin Ridley is pure cope. Let's be honest. If anything, missing two years of football means his body is younger than 29 years old. I think Calvin Ridley is the better football player than DeAndre Hopkins right now. But again, they're very close. And if you wanted to flip that and say Hopkins is three and Ridley is four, I would accept that.

Now, number five is where things get a little spicy. So when I did this on Twitter, I put Will Levis at number five. And a lot of people were saying, how can you put Will Levis in there? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. He hasn't proven that. And you know what? You guys are right. It is not can you put Will Levis in there? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. He hasn't proven that. And you know what?

You guys are right. It is not fair to put Will Levis in the top five best players on the team right now. Now, that is my projection. If Will Levis isn't one of the top five players on the team by midseason, well, then he's probably not the guy. So, yes, projecting a little bit to have Will Levis fifth. But I certainly think that Will Levis should be fifth very soon. Or, well, we need a new quarterback.

You know what I mean? Your quarterback has to be one of the best players on your football team. Like, we don't have, and I know people are going to say, look at Brock Purdy, but we don't have Kyle Shanahan as a head coach. Alright? I think that Brian Callahan can be a hell of a head coach. And not be Kyle Shanahan one of the best offensive, maybe the best offensive coach of all time. I mean, he's up there with, obviously, the greats like Bill Walsh. I mean, he's not going to overtake Bill Walsh. Even Sean McVay is a good conversation.

Him and Kyle Shanahan. But Shanahan is clearly one of the top coaches of my lifetime. So without him, you need your quarterback to be a top five player. So if it's not Will Levis, to me, number five is clearly Harold Landry. Harold Landry is the fifth best player on the team. Again, Will Levis needs to jump him if we all want to keep our sanity. But I would say that is the true top five best players on the team. Jeffrey Simmons, LeJarius Sneed, Calvin Ridley, DeAndre Hopkins, Harold Landry.

That's my top five. Let me know your top five. Very curious for the feedback here on this one. But who are the top five Tennessee Titans of all time? Very excited to get into my list there before I do. Do want to let you guys know that today's episode is brought to you by Game Time.

Continuing top five week here on the show. We did X-Factors, breakout candidates, make or break. Then we did cut candidates and trade options and first-time Pro Bowl potential. So check out those top five episodes from earlier this week if you missed those. But did the top five players on the current Tennessee Titans?

Now I'm wading into some historical waters, doing the best Tennessee Titans of all time. This is certainly going to be a controversial topic, I would imagine, especially with some of our older folks who are even older than me who have been watching this team for even longer than 25 years. But before I dive into it, I do want to thank you again for making Locked on Titans your first listen

each and every day, Monday through Friday, Tennessee Titans content all year round, always for free. You won't beat that anywhere else. Make sure you get subscribed today. Subscribe to your team every day. Do want to make clear here before I do my list. This is of the Tennessee Titans era. I'm not counting Houston Oilers players

just since the Tennessee Titans moved to Tennessee. Well, since the Houston Oilers moved to Tennessee and became the Tennessee Titans. Do you know what I'm saying? All right. So just, and I'll tell you the honest truth. The reason is, is because that's what I watched. I can't sit up here and give you some crazy explanation

on players that played in the 80s and 70s. I was born in 91. I just simply don't know those players. I don't. I don't know them well enough to speak accurately on them. If I'm just being honest. I'm not going to lie to you guys. It just wouldn't make any sense.

So what I've seen is the Tennessee Titans. And what I remember is the Tennessee Titans. So it makes it easy to just say, hey, since the team became the Titans, these are my top five. And there is no way. There is no effing way that you could have anybody at the top

other than Bruce Matthews. Like, I don't want to hear a conversation. I don't want an argument. There is nobody who's ever played for the Tennessee Titans that is a better player than Bruce Matthews. Bruce Matthews, Hall of Fame offensive lineman,

majority played left guard in his career, but did play a year of center at the end of his Titans career, was with the Titans for five seasons in Tennessee. So the majority of his career was with the Oilers, but he spent five years in Tennessee. He's a Titan as well. Hall of Fame, like I said, Hall of Famer. Titans don't have a lot of those.

14-time Pro Bowler, when the Pro Bowl mattered. Seven-time first-team All-Pro. He was on the all-1990s decade team. And if you want to say, oh, all those stats are good, but he was still a five-time Pro Bowler and a three-time first-team All-Pro in Tennessee in those five seasons. Bruce Matthews is the greatest Titan of all time. And there's no doubt.

There's just no doubt. All right? There's no doubt about it. Now, if people argue for someone else, I would imagine that it would be number two on my list, Steve Ayer McNair, baby. Throw up the hooks. Watching Steve McNair play as a kid. So I was introduced to professional football through Brett Favre.

I've said this on the show a lot. I had people on Twitter accuse me of being a Packers fan. I was raised in a Packer house. My dad's been a Packers fan since 66. Yes, he is old, okay? Brett Favre is what I saw that was like, oh, this is football. Watch his childlike enthusiasm,

him running around the field in that Super Bowl win. Like, that's what made me love football. So to watch Steve McNair, who played like that as well, toughest player that's ever played for the team, battle through injuries, have that excitement out on the field. The play is never dead if I am still standing. Like, Steve McNair had a lot of that Brett Favre enthusiasm, so I was instantly drawn to that. Three-time

Pro Bowler, MVP, got the Titans to their only Super Bowl appearance ever. R.I.P. to Steve McNair. He is just an absolute legend for this team. I can't put him over Bruce Matthews as a Hall of Famer, guys. 14 Pro Bowls, 7 All Pros, all 1990s, one of the greatest players in NFL history, not just Titans history. Steve McNair is number two because he is greatness

for this franchise, but in the all-time pantheon of the NFL, Steve McNair is nowhere close to the level that Bruce Matthews is at. And that's just a reality. No disrespect. That's just a reality. Number three, though. Derrick Henry. Derrick Henry.

Look, Derrick Henry was the driving force. Now, I think I'll lay that take out here when I get to my favorite players, but Derrick Henry is considered the driving force of this Tennessee Titans run that we experienced from 2019 to 2021. The second most successful run in Titans history. And Derrick Henry was at the center of it all. He was the star of it all. I don't think he was the most important player on those teams, but the person who I do think is most important, can't put him in the top five all-time Titans list. But Derrick Henry, four-time Pro Bowler, first team

All-Pro one year, second team All-Pro one year as well. Offensive player of the year in 2020 with a 2,000-yard season. 90 touchdowns. Holy crap. 90 touchdowns. As a Tennessee Titan, 9,500 yards. And if he didn't get hurt, that back half of 2021, he would be over 10,000 yards for his career and maybe 100 touchdowns.

So, got gotta have Derrick Henry number three. But number four, I went with Eddie George. Again, another driving force like Steve McNair, that Super Bowl run team. Eddie George and Derrick Henry stuff is so comparable. Both of them, four-time pro bowlers. Both of them,

one-time first-team all-pro. Eddie George didn't get offensive player of the year, but he got Offensive Rookie of the Year. Eddie George, 10,000 yards with the Titans, but only 64 touchdowns. Think about that. Derrick Henry has 26 more touchdowns than Eddie George in the same amount of time.

That's why, and Steve McNair and Eddie George together, Ryan Tannehill deserves his credit, of course, and AJ Brown deserves his credit for sure. But Derrick Henry was more important to the Titans than Eddie George was to those early Titans teams. Like it was very similar. I'm not trying to act like there's a big gap, but you got to give Derrick Henry the edge there. So I have Henry over Eddie George, but Eddie George number four. And Eddie George was a big reason why I'm a Titans fan. Coming from Ohio, being an Ohio State fan,

watching him win the Heisman and then go to the Titans, that made it easy for me to kind of choose them as my team. And then finally, I have Kevin Byard. I think Kevin Byard is the best defensive player in Tennessee Titans history. Two-time Pro Bowler, two-time first-team All-Pro, 27 interceptions in his career, constantly made big plays, had an eight-interception season as a third-round pick, like, you gotta give it to the mayor of Murfreesboro. He is number five

in the all-time Titans list to me. Obviously, you have honorable mentions. Frank Wycheck, Keith Bullock, Samari Roll. I mean, there are definitely Brad Hopkins. You could put Michael Roos. You could put Rob Baronis even. You could throw in there. Craig Hendrick.

Like, Ryan Tannehill is probably in the top 10. You know, Javon Curse, another name. Like, there are plenty of honorable mentions, but I feel pretty good about my top five. Bruce Matthews, Steve McNair, Derek Henry, Eddie George, Kevin Byard. Let me know your top five Titans of all time. And again, we're just talking Titans era. But now, I'm going to give you my personal favorite top five Titans ever.

My personal list. So I'm excited to talk about that. Titans fans, let's cap off today's edition of the Locked on Titans podcast. We've done the best five Tennessee Titans on the team right now. The top five Tennessee Titans of the Titans era. Now I'm going to give you my personal favorite top five Tennessee Titans. Before I get into it, thanks again for making Locked on Titans your first listen each and every day. Do also want to remind you guys that Locked on has launched

Now available on YouTube in the free Fire TV channels app. But, so this list seems to perplex people. Sometimes people don't understand what I'm saying. These are my favorite five Titans ever. The guys who I liked the most. Okay? And there are some players who are not on this list that will probably drive you guys crazy.

And there is at least one player on this list that I know drives people crazy still. And I don't really care because it's my favorites. These are my personal favorites. Number one is Kevin Byard. I have said this plenty of times. If you've been watching the show for any amount of time, you know, Kevin Byard is my favorite Tennessee Titan of all time. of all time. Number one, I knew it.

I knew it when he was drafted. Third round, 2016. I wasn't doing the show. I wasn't covering the Titans for money or anything like that. I was just purely a fan. And let me just say this. I'm so blessed to have the opportunity to do this show,

but it does change how you watch the games. It changes how I consume the team. It is work. It is work. So the pure fandom and pure joy of now anything that happens with the Titans, I have to immediately think of how to do this for work. You know, like when a big player, when the Titans got LeJarius Sneed,

before I did the show, I would just, let's get a beer. I'm doing, you know, bubba bug. Sneed, baby freak. And now, instantly, my brain goes, okay, so I need to do a video. I need to do a show. Where are his stats? I have a bookmark folder with all of his prevalent information

that I found on Twitter. My brain just instantly goes into work mode. So when Kevin Byard was drafted in 2016, me and my brother, who is also a big Titans fan, we were together watching the draft and I was like, bro, he's going to be the guy. Like, I just know it. I just feel it. Middle Tennessee State, small school, didn't know him.

I just, something about it. I just knew that Bayard would be special. I can't tell you how. Just a gut feeling. And he, like many Titans players who I believed in have not, Kevin Byard delivered tenfold. He was even better than I expected, and I thought he would be great. So, again, I have Kevin Byard as the fifth best Tennessee Titan of all time.

To kind of put a bet on that guy the moment he was drafted and for him to pay it off double, I love Kevin Byard. I absolutely love Kevin Byard. For a long time, he was the only Tennessee Titans jersey that I had because I just didn't trust anybody else. You know what I mean? I ended up getting a Derrick Henry Oilers because I felt I needed to pay homage to what he's done for this team.

And for me personally, my personal career, I owe a lot to Derrick Henry for what he's done and the hype that he's given to this team. But Kevin Byard is the guy. He'll always be my guy. Love KB, my favorite Tennessee Titan of all time. But the next guy on my list would have been my favorite Tennessee Titan of all time if John Robinson wasn't a moron.

And it's A.J. Brown. And it makes people mad that I say that, but there has never, there has never in my life been a more exciting Tennessee Titan than A.J. Brown. For me personally, watching A.J. Brown play football, we have never had elite superstar wide receiver play. Ever. Ever. And with passing in the, like, think about that one-handed catch against San Francisco with one arm in his elbow and like, think about bowling over those guys at the Baltimore Ravens

at the five-yard line and getting in the catch against the Raiders, the 91-yard bomb. I just, man, just flooded with sadness. Like that guy, A.J. Brown's going to be one of the best wide receivers in the history of the NFL. He was just, I loved A.J. Brown. I loved him from the moment against Atlanta, scoring that touchdown. I was just like, I love you.

I, like, man. Man, it makes me hurt. It makes me hurt. And I know most people in the comments are going, move on, move on already. I can't. I can't move on. The most talented wide receiver and one of the top five most talented players

this team has ever had ever. They let him go for nothing. For Traylon Burks. Man. So, A.J. Brown, personal joy watching a player play. Only Kevin Byard made me happier. A Kevin Byard interception is the only thing better

than an A.J. Brown touchdown for me in my experience. So I know a lot of people don't agree with that. I don't care. It's my personal favorites. Next is Keith Bullock. So I played linebacker as a little kid. I mean, we're talking about little, short, I played linebacker as a little kid. I mean, we're talking about little, short,

garbage Tyler at, you know, third grade. I'm like eight years old, nine years old. And I used to wear the armbands on my arm halves just like Keith Bullock. I wanted to be a linebacker forever. Like, if you ask me at nine years old, I'm going to be a professional linebacker in the NFL. Now, unfortunately I was never even close to being that kind of athlete, never even close to being big enough to even dream about that stuff, which if you can't play sports for a living, might as well talk about it. Right. So that's been my goal since I was like 15 years

old is, Oh, I'm not going to make it. So I'm going to talk about it. But Keith Bullock is like who I wanted to be when I was a little kid. So I love Keith Bullock. Shout out to KB. I love KBs, I guess. That's two KBs on my list. But Bullock's number three for me. Four is Kevin Dyson.

So when I was a little kid, Eddie George got me to notice the Titans because I knew him. And then the jerseys were sweet. I loved the Titans jerseys, the concept, the newness. I'm eight, nine years old. You know, brand new team.

Oh, this is cool. Me and my brother are like, yeah, we're in for this. this is cool. Me and my brother are like, yeah, we're in for this. And of course, naturally people are drawn to wide receiver play because wide receivers are exciting.

But watching Kevin Dyson catch the Music City Miracle and run it down the sideline, that was the moment. Like, that was the moment where me and my brother were like, this is our team, baby. And I loved Kevin Dyson, man.

I love KD. Just absolutely loved him. So I know that that's a little bit of a deep cut there, but man, I loved Dyson. That was my guy. And then you got to throw in Steve McNair. Loved watching Steve McNair play. But let me say this. A close sixth place, a close sixth place is Vince Young. I know. I know. I get it. One thing that you will never bully me off of, one thing I will never change my mind about,

is Vince Young would have been a great NFL player if he had more creative NFL coaching. Norm Chow, they were going to take Matt Liner. They all were going to take Matt Liner, so they hired Norm Chow from USC, and then Bud Adams said, no, we're taking Vince Young. Not a fit. Jeff Fisher and Norm Chow creating an offense for Vince Young,

no wonder it didn't work. Now Vince Young had his own personal problems and he has his own share of fault for his career not working out. But when Vince Young was cooking for the Titans with CJ2K, bro, I'll be straight honest. I was never happier.

I loved it. Vince Young winning the national championship with Texas against USC in 2005 is the greatest football game I've ever seen. That is my favorite football game of all time, period. Period. Man, I loved Vince Young.

So that's a close sixth, and I wake up certain days saying, he might be five. So, my personal favorite Titans ever, Kevin Byard, A.J. Brown personal favorite Titans ever, Kevin Byard, AJ Brown, Keith Bullock, Kevin Dyson,

Steve McNair, and Vince Young. Vince Young. But curious to see what your guys' answers are. Again, these were my personal favorites, so you can't get mad at me about my favorites. It doesn't even make sense. But curious to hear what your guys' are.

That is going to do it for me today, folks. As always, I am your host, Tyler Rowland, and this was Locked on Titans. what your guys' are. That is going to do it for me today, folks. As always, I am your host, Tyler Rowland, and this was Locked on Titans.
