I almost guarantee he will come in around 295-300 lbs. in July. That would still leave us undersized by NFL standards on the left side. He’s really on the team to back up Ben Jones at center and fill in injury holes on the line. He could be the successor to Jones or even beat him out in the future though.

I think they see something more long term in him. There is a reason why they kept him on the active roster through the entire year and that he played over Douglas. Give him a real off-season of strength and conditioning and he will be fine to start at LG or C if they so choose to want him to start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can fill in on the IOL spots in 2021 but I don't think I want to hand him the keys to a starting spot yet. He needs a full offseason to get bigger and stronger and then we need to see how that translates on the field. I liked what I saw from him this year. Hes athletic and is a high effort guy. I wouldn't be shocked if he is our C in 2022. Rage4Order, and IsntLifeFunny 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callidus Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 11 hours ago, AvgJoe said: Titans need to keep the Left side of the Oline intact and Jones IMO and all starters the same while getting a new RT ready. Personally, I think Sambrailo is capable of starting while a mid round pick gets time to develop. Jones is going no where. Saffold while great is a possible cap casualty with his back up looking good. Kelly does not cost or save us that much but I could see it if they want to retool the line and spend cash other places.

ctm Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 (edited) Spotrac now shows the Titans with -4.5M in cap space for 2021. That's based on a cap of 175M and the top 51 players. That also includes no money for the draft class. The Titans rank 21st in the league in available space. The Jags rank 1st with +77M, Colts are 4th with +53M and the Texans are 26th with -20M. 10 teams have negative cap space in double digits led by the Saints with almost -100M and the Eagles with -74M. 2021 is going to be a unique year but a couple of things seem certain. With 10 teams having double digits negative cap space, there is going to be a huge roster purge even if the league raises the cap above 175M. In addition, teams with available space like the jags and colts are positioned to take advantage both in the short term but also long term if they choose to structure free agents contracts that way.

Think there might be a lot of 1yr contracts signed this year as agents position their clients to take advantage of when the cap bounces back post covid and with the new TV deals coming. titanskick8851, and ctm 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AussieTitanFan08 Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 Interesting take from an outsider who spends a lot of time covering the Titans, Russini thinks the Titans lack on field player led leadership that is willing to stand up and hold other players accountable. oldschool, titanskick8851, and tgo 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgo Posted January 13, 2021 Report Share Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) Guys like JJ Watt, Kerrigan, Hightower/McKinney, Matt Milano, Nick Vigil, Duron Harmon could fit the bill on defense.
