From the Daily News Now Network, this is NFL News Today. Subscribe to keep up with every headline, every game. In the 2012 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans picked defensive tackle Mike Martin at number 82 overall. That choice looks rough now, since quarterback Nick Foles went just six spots later to the Philadelphia Eagles and receivers in cornerbacks like. T.Y. Hilton and Josh Norman came, even after that. Martin stuck around for four seasons with the Titans, playing 46 games with only five starts. He managed four sacks in 12 tackles for loss, but never became a game changer on the line. The Titans were set with Jake Locker starting at quarterback and Matt Hasselbeck backing him up that year. Fans still wonder why they did not grab Foles instead, especially with the team's struggles at the position over time. Foles turned into a star, stepping up for the Eagles in the playoffs to win Super Bowl 52. He earned MVP honors in that 41-33 upset over the Patriots

and holds the all-time playoff completion percentage record at 68.1%. Meanwhile, Hilton outdid the Titans top receiver as a rookie and later led the league with 1,448 yards in two, 2016. Norman earned first team all pro nods, helping Carolina go 15-1 before Super Bowl 50. This episode is supported by our sponsor. Podcasts had different when the sound comes from your pillow.
