He needs to show last year was an anomaly. I don think either one gets resigned if Brown plays like he did in 2019. ILB is a big need and I don´t know if Rice or Long are up to the task. We´ll see.

Thrill Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Blitz him and put him in on goal line packages. Otherwise Long is better. SleepingTitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepingTitan Posted May 3, 2021 Report Share Posted May 3, 2021 Hopefully he blows up this year and gets signed to a huge deal. Comp pick baby. With the way QB and WR are being drafted, we should be able to find a great linebacker in the 3rd again Mythos27, and titanskick8851 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought they should try more of this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the Steelers game Jayon was back flying around; the 4 or so games before the injury he was playing really well. If he gets back to playing like that I think we’ll re-sign him to a reasonable 3 year deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaddKarma Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 He never made enough plays. Deuces... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downtown Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 He has been mis-cast in his role and suffers from a disjointed coaching staff. Hopefully Rice will allow them the ability to use Evans to rush and unleash his good downhill skill-set. I swear the coaching on this team went to shit the second Vrabel decided to meddle. titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OILERMAN Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 I think Long would be fine as a 2 down LB but he's not an every down player Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justafan Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Long is one of those guys that some other team will overpay to come be a starter and the Titans will let walk. I like him as a player and I think he's done well but unless he has a breakout year I don't think he'll have a long term future here. Brown, I absolutely think they would like to keep if they can. He's a good coverage LB and those are much harder to find than the thumpers. freakingeek 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he gets back to playing like that I think we’ll re-sign him to a reasonable 3 year deal. I'm starting to think he doesn't come into the season in shape. Early last season, he looked a lot like he did his first few games of his rookie season where he missed a lot of time with the hammy. I remember he looked like his had a load in his diaper. Then as he played himself into shape, he got much better. There is no way he is out there prepping for the season like Derrick Henry. Jayon is a good player but after 4 seasons in the NFL he's still a flabby little pudge himself. I don't know how you could go hard in an NFL weight/diet program for 4 years and still look like that when average Joes transform their bodies with much fewer resources at their disposal.

I’ve noticed this as well, not so much in year 2 when he really came on, but certainly his rookie year and last year. He has natural speed for a guy his size, but you’re right that he doesn’t seem like a big workout guy. On a side note, I still can’t believe that bastard Raven didn’t get suspended for that clip. It was totally unnecessary, away from the play, and it cost Jayon a lot of money this year. Dirty fucks. Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschool Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 @OILERMAN counter to your point the other day... 21/32 1st rounders from 2018 had their 5th year options picked up. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/05/03/21-fifth-year-options-picked-up-for-2018-first-round-picks/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
