Yeah, but they are going to need another backup IOL now. Brewer seems like a lock as one of those guys, but they are going to need another. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way the new guy will have potential competence that Douglas clearly lacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they feel Brewer is the primary backup G/C, they may not sign another vet unless there's an injury mid-season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think they will want a veteran backup C even if they are OK with an unproven guard. Not sure they are OK leaving that up to Brewer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nash Posted April 5, 2021 Report Share Posted April 5, 2021 I suspect Brewer is the back up at center.. if he can gain some muscle and weight.(. 278 won’t cut it over a season) .. so with Saffold getting older, this draft will find his replacement.. someone to play Left guard going forward..

Willing to bet Brewer ends up around 290-295 to start the season. He is going to have an actual team facility to work out at and will be on an NFL strength and meal program. I saw enough last year to think he will end up being a future starter at OG or C. tgo, IsntLifeFunny, Starkiller, and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked surprisingly serviceable last year in place of Saffold even playing at ~275lbs. IsntLifeFunny 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titanskick8851 Posted April 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 Good signing for the Eagles here. If we didn't re-sign Brown, he would've been who I would have wanted us to go after. I do wonder that now with Schwartz on board if we see a slight change at LB with having more sideline-to-sideline guys rather than having a thumper like Evans in the middle.

If Schwartz was the DC maybe.... some of you are way overreacting to the Schwartz news. BudsOilers, and No1TitansFan 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha ya, it's not like the Titans are moving to the wide 9. Like I said previously, it will be minor tinkering with third down packages and making recommendations on play calling and what not. I was reading that he had also switched to heavy man coverage in recent years, which is much different than his days in Tennessee. There's more philosophical alignment here than one would think just at the surface level. IrishTitansFan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
