code Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Marcus was going to be a $22,000,000+ cap suck moving forward. Even if we choose to retain Tanny as a stop gap at $15,000,000, the Mariota savings could absolutely help to resign Logan Ryan if we choose, possibly even Conklin if he has graded out well. Sucks to not have a franchise QB -- but this is a bit of a silver lining. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tannehill is a better QB than Brissett and will likely end up commanding more. Cajuntitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliTitan3518 Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 I say draft a QB and screw the stopgap QB route. Brissett was paid to be the starter. If we are going to invest a high pick into a QB, play him from day 1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Could be quite a few veteran QB's available this year via FA or trade, Dalton/Bridgewater/Tannehill/Newton/Rivers/Brees/Winston and maybe even Brady. Schefter just now on ESPN's MNF Countdown said there are quite a few things starting to line up that indicate that Brady might be willing to move on from the Patriots after this year. Throw in the 5 or 6 QB's that will be drafted in the first two days of the draft and there will be plenty of choices at QB, Tannehill isn't going to have some kind of huge leverage.

AussieTitanFan08 Posted October 21, 2019 Report Share Posted October 21, 2019 Just now, OILERMAN said: This might sound crazy but Tannehill might be a better QB than Brady heading into 2020 Certainly not entirely crazy, the only decent team the Patriots have faced this year the Bills made Brady look very ordinary. I was more pointing out there is likely to be a range of options for teams this offseason at QB whether that is via FA or the draft, Tannehill simply isn't going to have some massive leverage if he tries to price himself out of the market.

Sucks to not have a franchise QB -- but this is a bit of a silver lining. The Titans are currently on track to have about 63M in cap space next year. If they cut Walker and Lewis, which seems likely, that adds another 11.5m for almost 75M in cap space. Cap space won't be an issue. If there is an issue it's that they have 20 free agents (not counting 4 erfa) so depth could be an issue. headhunter 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady is and always has been a statue. His arm is his skillset. He may not be as immobile as Manning was, but he's still slow as Christmas when he runs. He'd have to do a bit more of it behind our guys. And if his arm is deteriorating it just wouldn't go well. That being said, if Tannehill is unreasonable in his expectations for a deal I'd have no problem going with Brady for a year or two with a draft pick sitting behind him. AAS would drool over the idea too as it'd probably put butts in the stadium on Sundays to see Tom Terrific in 2 tone blue. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
