I mean I really get this. I understand the logic behind it but the head and heart are different things. 

 

I also wonder about compensation. If the Jets were willing to give up 10 for Deebo...

 

 

 

Seeing how quickly the terms were worked out on a deal...this had to have been in the works for a while. 

 

They probably just agreed not to do until they were on the clock to keep teams from jumping the Titans.

My team source told me that when they caught Brown posting on Qanon sites, the end was near.

Gotta look at what they do with the rest of the picks.

 

How confident are you in JRob to make the picks?  I trust him more than meathead, but after the last two drafts, my confidence is starting to waiver.

They def wanted to make sure Burks was still there

I'm sure Vrabel signed off on this deal.  They seem to be aligned (Robinson and Vrabel).

 

You think this was just decided tonight?  This has been discussed for weeks.  You don't make trades and moves like this spur of the moment.

 

Agreed. They definitely discussed internally as soon as the market shifted. I think they realized they were at an impasse in terms of what they were willing to give AJ.

50 percent maybe.  Well at least Smith is off the board, so road grading OL is supposedly off the table.

I feel like there's gotta be something else involved than just trading a contract.  When Brown was on the field and healthy he was top 5, top 10 in the league.  And then they trade him for his replacement and a third round pick?  It doesn't make sense.  The compensation that they received doesn't match Brown's talent level.  I'd have expected more.  There's got to be something more going on that the Titans know and we don't.

I’m starting to think we take Malik here….

I hope they do.  I'm done with Tannehill.

[Thrill]

I'll get over this and my response is purely emotional right now. But I just can't get over the fact that we had to do this because of past mistakes. Imagine if we waited and still got Burks and had AJ Brown for another year + Franchise Tag, etc.

It's clear that their approach to winning is to be a dominant D.  I don't love the approach but when Tannehill is the QB and you have him under that contract at least this year maybe that's the best way.

Davante Adams went for 1st and 2nd, and Tyreek Hill went for 1st, 2nd, and 4th..... a 1 and 3 for AJB checks out. Offense design aside, he barely cracked 1k twice and hasn't caught more than 70 passes in a season.

I think you answered your own question. "When Brown was on the field..."

We got almost the same draft value that GB got for DA and KC got for TH...it was excellent value. The big Q is is Burks AJB v2.0 or some scrub. TBD...
