The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

Dion has lost his edge.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I don't want any part of Brady. At his age I think outside of NE he's going to be a major bust.

 

[YankeeVol]

He should be cut regardless

He should be cut regardless

Why not see if someone would take him off their hands for 5th, 6th or 7th RD. Pick.

 

[TJVol95]

Good!

Every team in the league knows he's going to get cut. They have no incentive to trade for him when they could bid in free agency for a lot less than his current deal.

Both Robinson and Vrabel have both hinted that Tannehill might not be back at the combine. It sure seems we're gearing up for Brady. I just hope we're not going to get screwed here. My worst nightmare is letting RT walk and Brady at the last minute decides to remain with New England.

Get Brady, draft Hurts

Get Brady, draft Hurts

Honestly, if they do go for Brady (which I think is a bad idea), they have to draft a QB. Given their draft position and Mariota likely walking, we may be with old man Brady and no legit backup.

Even with Tannehill a QB needs to be drafted

Agreed. I guess I was thinking more about where in the draft do you pull the trigger, though. Earlier with Brady at the helm, IMO.

Tannehill had 12 good games, he may regress back to his means. A QB earlyish (2-4) is a requirement either way IMO

I’m sorry, but I’m taking Tannehill and a cup of warm lemonade 8 days a week over a 43 y/o Tom Brady + Jalen Hurts.

I don’t think people are appreciating just how good Tannehill actually was last year. Yes, he will probably regress some (dude literally just had one of the most efficient passing seasons ever recorded), but I doubt it will be to the dramatic effect people seem to think.

 

[eVOLve]

Gonna be Brady and drafting a QB.

Gonna be Brady and drafting a QB.

Agreed a lot of buzz at the combine today that it’s increasingly unlikely Brady returns to NE. Have to think the Titans would be the likely destination, if so curious how early we take a QB in the draft.

There’s 88 games that shows that’s an outlier “season” (which wasn’t even a full season).
Even with Tannehill, I believe the Titans will take a QB in the first half of the draft

 

[Rishvol]

I'm good with the Titans getting a QB in the mid rounds. First round (once again) needs to be interior OL or CB

 

[Burhead]

Read into what you want but Vrabel was facetiming with Brady and Julian at a basketball game today.

Brady and Edleman were at a 'Cuse game, he's going to NY.

Curran: Both sides will make an effort

They don't expect the Raiders to aggressively pursue Brady. If that's the case it will be down to us and the Pats if he leaves. The Raiders never really made much sense to me either, he'd have to play the Chiefs twice a year in that division. If he leaves the only logical team would be us.

- Warmer weather location
- GM is an ex-Pat
- Reunite with his buddy Vrabel
- Team has some ex-Pats already on the roster
- Goes to a team with a strong running game that won't force him to throw 613 times going into his age 43 season
- Goes to a team that seems to have good young receiving corp (AJ Brown/Smith)
- Goes to a team that seems to be on an upswing
- Goes to a division that is kinda weak as well

The only drawback is that we have a weak pass blocking offensive line and going to lose our starting RT. On the bright side we have money to spend (11th in most cap space). After getting Henry signed back we got to look at what RTs are available in free agency and than invest any remaining money/draft picks into the defense.

 

[Burhead]

Per Aaron Wilson we're supposedly one of the teams interested in D.J. Reader from Houston.

Even in those “88 games” he was never a bad QB. Seriously, go back and look at his career numbers. Statistically the dude has pretty much always been decent.

This “advanced metric” nonsense has people warped over what constitutes good QB play.

His career in Miami was lackluster because Miami has been a f***ing dumpster fire for 2 decades.
