Mark Davis doesn’t have the cash to escrow for the guarantee, the fit with McDaniels would never work, and they’ve already said their QB solution may not come this year. I’m hesitant to say it because I know what the reaction will be on this board - but my personal opinion has been for about the last week that it will be either a return to the Packers or a trade to Tennessee. Maybe I’m totally wrong. Green Bay has to restructure a couple more contracts after their most recent restructures last week to take the 9M dead cap hit for a Rodgers trade regardless of where it is to, so they have a bit more administrative work to do before they can execute a trade, but they’re well on their way.

This is really a salary cap question, but how the hell were they able to sign Davante Adams and Chandler Jones last year if he's so poor? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cenj Posted February 27, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 I haven't paid attention to this or much else in the offseason; my assumption has been there's no way he comes to TN. But the only thing I know for certain is that if Rodgers does somehow become a Titan, or if it comes out verifiably that the Titans tried to trade for him, then everyone will still shit on @tgo and tell him he was wrong. The posters saying that the idea is stupid and would never happen? They will just say that it WAS stupid and shouldn't have happened, and therefore they are still right. Tgo will still be clueless to them. No reflection will happen, no admission of overestimated knowledge.

It’s the full guarantees that would be an issue rather than the big contracts in general - you can mitigate the cash flow timing with financing, but with the Rodgers guarantee Mark Davis has to escrow the full 60M in cash immediately upon taking the contract. rns90 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgo Posted February 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 Just now, OzTitan said: Are the Titans really in a better position to take it on? Yeah. Strunk has more money than Mark Davis, but she’s not among the wealthiest owners by any means, so she’d have to dig deep in the pocket book to make that move in conjunction with the upcoming Simmons guarantee. Definitely a heavy lift, but doable. Hypothetically - From a cap perspective, going from Tannehill to Rodgers actually saves 3M against the 2023 cap.

OILERMAN Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 I listen to Andrew Brandt all the time, he doesn't have a clue or insight, he literally says that in that tweet. Rodgers has a 0% chance of coming to the Titans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong about what? He's posted they were gonna go with Willis, draft a rookie, Carr and Rodgers while denying he ever said any of that very recently. Last I remember was him saying they would give Tannehill an extension. Justafan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzTitan Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 If there's a way the Packers and Rodgers can see about his release then I think the odds would improve somewhat, but a trade seems very unlikely to me. rns90 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never once said they were going with Carr, no idea why this keeps getting repeated. The only thing I said about Carr was right after he was benched and they said they were moving on that he would be among an array of QB options for the Titans to consider in the upcoming offseason. I personally think Tannehill is a better QB than Carr and have always said that. And I said I was *afraid* that they’d go with Willis eventually when he was drafted. I was the single biggest critic on this board of that draft pick from the very beginning. And yeah, I still think the most likely outcome is that Tannehill gets an extension! But we’ll know within the next couple weeks either way. Vegas disagrees with you on the Titans odds of landing Rodgers being literally 0% though - Green Bay - Even Raiders +300 Jets +500 Titans +1000 (or roughly 9.1%) Edited February 27, 2023 by tgo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
