The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

Gets it.

Added Vic Beasley. Net wash against Casey on comp.

Edge rush improvement - check.

Vic Beasley was a huge disappointment with the Falcons and I think the best part of his career is behind him.

Vic Beasley was a huge disappointment with the Falcons and I think the best part of his career is behind him.

He set career season marks for combined tackles and assists to go with 8 sacks and 12 QB hits. I'll take it on a one year, prove it deal while developing the next guy to step in. With Landry coming off the other side, O-lines are going to have to deal with more speed rushing. Vrabel's scheme should fit him well.

Sounds like Titans, Jets, and Seahawks are the teams in on Clowney.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Better him than Tannehill

Nah. It would be Randy Moss Part 2.

 

[Blake25p]

Could be something more likely nothing. A pass rush package of Landry, Clowney, Big Jeff, and Beasley with Evans and/or Brown would be pretty nice.

Agree. At this point the top rush FA's are Clowney and Griffen. Vikings are passing on a new deal with the later and he had Beasley type production.

If you are going big on a defensive FA, Clowney is the guy with the upside IMO. If he is healthy he can go off on people in the right scheme. With their roster the Titans would have the ability to manage his snaps more to keep him healthy and fresh. Don't want to give away all of the cap flexibility, but it would be great to have a guy opponents had to pay attention to every play he is in the game.

Fans in Atlanta were disappointed in his sack totals his last three seasons with the Falcons.

He had 8 sacks last season. 9.5 led the team last year

Seriously frick Robinson, I don't care how much money he costs Casey was a huge part of this team we just got worse today.

He turns 31 this year. His best days are behind him. Sure he was a fan favorite but it's a business.

I get that. Beasley was OK last season in comparison to the Titan pass rush. Landry led the Titans with 9, then it dropped to 5 for Casey and Correa. It's a one year, prove it deal on the opposite side from a young guy with great upside. J-Rob is not done. He's not betting the franchise on one guy. It's a better signing than somebody like Wake was last year.

If Diggs is there I like this pick. Titans need a solid corner opposite of Adoree.

They could then try and trade up into the top 8-10 of the 2nd and grab a RB or OT.

If Titans end up signing Clowney what was really the point of signing Beasley?

He’ll more than likely be a 3/4 DE with us but will be moved all around the LOS a lot like he was when Vrabel was his DC in Houston.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I like the Diggs pick. I like him over Henderson TBH

A dominant defense!

 

[Blake25p]

Starting to think the Titans and Clowney have agreed to a deal pending a physical and it happened around the time the Casey trade went down. Doesn’t make much sense for J Rob to shed cap space and not make ANY moves since. You would think if Clowney was going back to Seattle it would have happened already. Also I find it odd there hardly has been any info about the status of Clowney who is/was one of the bigger name FA’s.

Rumors are out there that have the Titans getting Clowney. Even The Athletic beat writer has an article up about the possibility. The Vrabel/Clowney past coach/player relationship should not be ignored. There's a legit shot at it.

 

[Vols4us]

Walder/ESPN had Vic Beasley's signing as one of the top 5 value signings of FA. Some analysts believe his downturn in sacks/pressures was a direct result of poor secondary play in Atlanta. If that is correct he may have a much improved year in a Titans uniform.

PFT this morning had Simms and Florio discussing the Titan’s biggest needs in the draft. Simms said DL and Florio said RT. Agree with both, but I side with Simms. We need someone to replace Casey.
