titanruss Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 Jalen has always been a gigantic titans fan and huge Nashville homie. Hed give the titans a solid discount. It’s so blatant I dont know how you ignore it at this point. He’d make the jags pay him to be the highest paid CB because he wants to be a titan that bad. It’s completely obvious. That said, JRob bringing him in would be hard to imagine .... though pretty much all our current CBs contracts would be up or save us big money to be cut when he is actually available. heyitsmeallen, and NashvilleNinja 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s completely obvious. Its certainly possible that he would prefer playing at home in Nashville but there is no way he would be giving the team some kind of meaningful discount. Not really much point worrying if he will be playing here anyway, with the 5th year option in 2020 and a couple of franchise tags after that, the earliest possible time we would have a shot bringing him here is after the 2022 season.

No he wouldn't. It sure looks like he'd like to be a Titan but at best this means that he would choose us over other teams if the money was even. Jalen Ramsey isn't taking less than he has to for anyone. Few players are doing that these days. reo, titanruss, and OILERMAN 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few players are doing that these days. The ONLY counter I have is how I’d personally go about it. I’ve been a Titans fan for as long as I can remember. If I had the opportunity to play for them, I’d give my favorite team a discount based on my fandom (and that’s assuming I could still live my lifestyle with what I would make).

I love the Titans more than any other team, athlete, and even a couple of family members but I'm not turning down 3-5 million dollars for anyone. It's a compete moot point anyways because if the Titans are ever in the position to sign Ramsey they're certainly not gonna mess it up by low-balling him and hoping he's willing to take it due to some "home town" discount. You'd really turn down 3-5 million more for a team that wouldn't even give you a better chance to win a ring? Damn. StephenIsLegend 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd really turn down 3-5 million more for a team that wouldn't even give you a better chance to win a ring? Damn. Probably. But my fandom runs pretty deep. I’d rather win a ring with my favorite team, if given the opportunity. I’d have to be able to still live the lifestyle I would at that point. And I agree. They won’t lowball him. But, that’s just me personally. I love football. I love the Titans. Id be willing to sacrifice if needed. TitansGuru 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He grew up as big a fan of the titans as most of us on the board. He’s still a fan. He’s got a house in town and loves Nashville. It’s his home.

But I expect the Jags to franchise him next year. titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NashvilleNinja Posted July 16, 2019 Report Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) Dayum... I ain't seen a Jag so desperate to be a Titan since Fred Taylor. The only difference is Ramsey's incredible transparency whereas Taylor hid his jealousy behind denial. That mofo still to this day says that 99 Jag team was the better team.
