rns90 Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 We were never going to pay that much given the other pressing issues (Tannehil +Henry). Interesting move settling for a short term deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliTitan3518 Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Good for him. Oiler FANatic 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AussieTitanFan08 Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Given his injury history surprised he only went for a short term deal. Also not sure that deal will be enough to get a 3rd round compo pick, it might fall into the 4th round category. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudsOilers Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Smart deal for him. Hits market again at 28. More players should do shorter deals as the market/cap changes routinely. Starkiller 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post tgo Posted March 16, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Wow, shockingly cheap and low risk deal. 14M per year APY. Obviously the Titans didn't want him back. Omar, Soxcat, ChemEngr79, and 8 others 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLinks Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Now we get to over reach for a right tackle in the draft. Yay. I knew we weren’t keeping him though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titans were not going to pay him that kind of APY as a RT IMO with Lewan and Saffold already on big deals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgo Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 I suspect it's about his pass rush vulnerabilities as well as not a great fit for zone blocking just from a player trait perspective, as I have discussed before. Or they just point blank needed the money elsewhere. japan, Thrill, and NashvilleNinja 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 That's actually way less than I anticipated but enough to prevent us from signing a marquee pass rusher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyle021 Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 That’s a lot cheaper than I imagined... we could’ve comfortably offered that Thrill, and TylerRoseFan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they just point blank needed the money elsewhere. I think in one of the pressers at the end of the year, someone asked about improving the offensive line. Vrabel said something like: "Well we definitely can't spend anymore money on it." rns90, mmmmmbeeer, Lars, and 1 other 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
