We know what the Titans value out of their OL. You're right though - Lewan plays the most important position out of the 3. So the question comes down to which position do the Titans think Radunz is best suited for? I don't know the answer to that question. And their calculation very well may have changed even since he was drafted. I think Radunz has to be in position to start in order to allocate resources out effectively across the team, and I think he's about ready. I'm just not sure which position it will be. There are just a lot moving parts and different scenarios for the Titans OL. Going with this one, I think they then keep Saffold and Jones. And probably use one of those picks acquired in a Lewan trade to grab an IOL that should start in 2023. That being said, I would still cut Saffold for cap purposes since I think OG are easily found on the cheap. Not looking for a long term starter just a vet plug and play guy. This is my personal opinion with biases built in. I do think that they do replace two of the OL starters. Think Wyatt or someone aluded to it the other day.

Does seem to be an unusually high number of reporters around the NFL linking Gesicki and the Titans, this number of connections usually only happens in the days preceding the opening of the legal tampering window.

I don't remember who said it but it could have been one of Robinson/Vrabel and it was one of those read between the lines things. It is odd how one of the most traditionally tight lipped organizations (Titans) has been linked to Geisicki. Wolfe used to cover the Titans too so maybe he still has sources here. Oof. Just watched the Wolfe clip on the Dolphins, 20 million franchise tag number for a DE. They may have to use it on Ogbah instead of Geisicki. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're tight lipped in public/media, but they usually telegraph most of their moves early in the draft and sometimes in FA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very predictable in the draft. Just focus on the one or two positions they "left alone" in FA and that's the answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he was good after the catch this year but that was never his game with the Rams. I don’t think he’s a Swiss Army knife guy. More of a vertical threat than Jonnu. He has stone hands but he’s a pretty good blocker Hands aren't as good but he's a better router runner from what I've seen and doesn't need to be schemed up. He's as close as we'll get to replacing Jonnus's athletic profile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudsOilers Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Everett would be an upgrade over what they have currently but he kind of disappointed in Seattle. He had a couple of really really bad games - one vs the 49ers where he literally had a dropped easy TD that he tipped to a DB for an EZ pick, a fumble deep in their territory, and then a fumble on a run after catch at the one yard line.....

I wish we got a larger sample of Rad than one game at LT. He was damn good in that one game idc wtf pff says. If they move bosa away from you....

OILERMAN Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 Jonnu was not just a decent blocker, he had turned into a very good run blocker and pass protector. Swain was terrible in pass protection and that aspect hasn't been mentioned nearly enough. The pass protection from the TE position was really bad this past season and a huge area that needs upgrading. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
