AussieTitanFan08 Posted January 31, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 1 minute ago, BudsOilers said: The other aspect of this that people are ignoring is the contract - neither the Titans nor Tannehill want him playing at the 36.6 M cap number. The Titans for obvious reasons want to lower that and have money to spend elsewhere. Tannehill of course wants far more than a one year commitment without guaranteed money. If the Titans are unwilling to commit beyond 2023, Tannehill himself may be pushing to go elsewhere. Have touched on this point previously Tannehill and his management will definitely be pushing for guaranteed money and while I'm perfectly fine with Tannehill in 2023 I wouldn't be a fan of committing more money beyond next season at this point in time.

I think in the scenario we trade him for solid compensation it gives the team an out to essentially tank the year. We would still be on the hook for the 18 million so I would assume we would use the rest of that money to begin the process of rebuilding the offense. 28 minutes ago, BudsOilers said: The other aspect of this that people are ignoring is the contract - neither the Titans nor Tannehill want him playing at the 36.6 M cap number.

If the Titans are unwilling to commit beyond 2023, Tannehill himself may be pushing to go elsewhere. I've said the entire time the least likely thing to happen in my mind is we go into the season without touching his contract, essentially leaving him as a lame duck. Extend or trade him.

Even if someone offers something significant for him? I mean, if it's a third like Ryan or Wentz, I tend to agree but if someone offers something like a high second or late first, that would make me reconsider some things. Not saying that's viable for a 35 year old QB coming off a disappointing season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite possible, but if we trade him for chump change after seeing what Wentz and Ryan received I'd be disappointed. We should get at least a couple decent picks for him.

XAEA12 Posted January 31, 2023 Report Share Posted January 31, 2023 He'd definitely be an upgrade to either NY team as well as ATL and CAR, all of whom could have made a playoff run with better QBs and close enough to compete to bite the bullet on a trade.

Not saying that's viable for a 35 year old QB coming off a disappointing season. I think he means the team may mutually agree to part ways and then go about merely getting the best they can instead of it being a hard fought negotiation.
