BTiger3733 Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 Good move, had to be done unfortunatley. Time for Fulton to step up. Which he should be expected to, a consensus 1st round talent heading into his second season as the #2 corner. We should be fine. Side note, anyone who thinks Jonnu Smith is more important to this team than Adoree Jackson doesn't understand football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imo we should have held onto Butler 1 more year. Finding a good corner isn't easy & I think Malcolm actually lived up to his contract pass few years. What standout corners are gonna hit the free agency market or is even in the draft? We lack pass rushers and we lack receivers and we lack Corners. Atleast holding onto Malcolm we have depth and know what we have. Would have been one less position we needed to worry about. Adoree, Malcolm and Fulton. Now we need corners, Pass rushers, receivers. We aren't gonna fix all three positions in one off-season. We need to capitalize on Tannehill and Henry's youth And win now...Not start rebuilding around guys in their 30s and back end of their 20s. You need to rely on rookie and young players to develope. The staff who has seen what Fulton can do obviously feel he can hold down a spot. The market has starting caliber players available. I expect they sign a vet CB and potentially draft at the position. The way you talk end up with a situation like NO. You build through the draft and sign to compliment your stars. You don't just resign everyone and put yourself in cap hell. Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many times did we explain this over the past 6 months? At least 100 lol. japan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

2ToneTerror Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 While both are fast, Neither Adoree nor Fulton have length or size/physicality. We could struggle on the boundaries or with physical passing attacks. Neither are strong tacklers either. They better look at resigning King or someone of his ilk. Still I’m on the “pass rush is more important than coverage” camp, so they better use the money they freed up accordingly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Starkiller Posted March 10, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 I know it was a cap move, but it sucks since Butler was the best player they had on D last year. He really did an excellent job at CB. Jonboy, Omar, Mythos27, and 7 others 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omar Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 This move had to happen, but the team needs to make some moves at CB. Adoree and Fulton hardly played at all last year, can’t count on them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
twitch28 Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 Always had mixed feelings about him. Seemed like a good guy, chippy but not too over the top. Of course there was the occasional let a guy beat him over the top for a deep ball TD then talk shit the next drive when the guy drops a ball and he's even just close to the play ha. I think we got a good run out of him though and he played hard. Kudos. MikeKeith2020 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching Rapoport on NFL Total Access today he said the Titans never offered Butler the chance to restructure his deal this was an outright cut, would have to think they have no interest in him returning as they want to get younger/cheaper at the position. tgo, SuperFreak90, and NashvilleNinja 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 37 minutes ago, AussieTitanFan08 said: I think the situations were very different. Butler gave up a lot of receptions because the D had him intentionally giving up lots of routes underneath the secondary. He got beaten pretty badly vs the Vikings early on, but otherwise he held his own well. Mythos27, and DCTitan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
