The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

[Rishvol]

Stocker signing with Atlanta really wanted him back.

He had a good year last year. Hate to see him go, but hopefully Smith will step up this year

McCarron cut. I'd take him over Gabbert

I'm still hoping for a Dobbs trade or something

McCarron has now been beat out twice by Nathan Peterman. I don't know if Peterman looks great in practice, and McCarron really bad, but McCarron's game film is Montana-esque compared to Peterman's.

I really don't understand how GMs reach these decisions.

 

[Vols4us]

Hope they go with NT and TE with top picks. Moving Casey out to DE improves the pass rush immediately. John Glennon with The Athletic thinks they will move back for more picks in the draft.

Josh Kline released. So they may draft a developmental G as well.

I agree. I like McCarron and do not understand him not being at least a quality back-up since he is better than some other pathetic starters in the league.

 

[Blake25p]

Love it

 

[Rishvol]

Not really losing anything. Sounds like a good trade

 

[YankeeVol]

I kinda like it. He’s not bad, although he’s injured more than MM it seems

 

[bamawriter]

It improves a terrible situation behind Mariota and doesn't cause any cap issues. Solid move.

 

[Vols4us]

Good move with MM's injury history. Upgrade over Gabbert.

 

[YankeeVol]

Love it

And Miami is picking up $5 mil of it

But like I said, he's got more of an injury bug than MM. He has missed 25 games over his past three seasons due to a variety of injuries

 

[Grudenator]

Really good move imo. Probably be the best backup in the league.

Ryan Fitzpatrick. Brian Hoyer. But Tannehill is up there

 

[SandoVOL]

Why didn't the Titans make a move on Nick Foles? Mariotta is obviously struggling here...

Because Foles is great as an Eagle and terrible everywhere else he’s been?

 

[SandoVOL]

I'm not a Mariotta hater, but JR is gonna have to make a move at some point.

Would rather have Tannehill than either one of those guys. Honestly the only other backup I think is even close to this is Bridgewater.

He was never leaving before year 5.

Regardless, I think the writings kind of on the wall with this trade, specifically with it being on a 1-year deal. Also could be why we stayed in house on the OC hire. Looks like we’re pretty much going all in on 2019 either expecting it all to finally come together for the offense or prepping to start from scratch at QB next year.

 

[Burhead]

I love this move we really needed a better option at back-up QB given MM’s history. I think he should be one of top backups in the league.

I almost added him. But it's been so long since he's really played

 

[Usernametaken]

We can only go up from here. Hopefully.

 

[orangepridenation]

We can only go up from here. Hopefully.

Not really. I mean, we’re coming off 3 straight winning seasons. Admittedly it hardly feels like it, but there’s definitely plenty of room to fall.

Next season literally all depends on Marcus Mariota. Hopefully we take the next step in 2019 and become a legitimate contender, but if not, I have a feeling it’s back to the drawing board regarding the direction of this franchise next offseason.

 

[peaygolf]

Taylor isn’t garbage. He would be a very good slot only receiver. Now sharpe... he isn’t good. Sad thing is, is that even with humphries signing, I still feel like we don’t have a #2. Him and Taylor are basically both slot only receivers.

Taylor would actually be better on the outside. Only guy with any speed. This should help him get to his natural position.
