Titans inquiring with the Bears about trading up for First Overall Pick?

It goes back to that post from another thread, let's save money and sign a bunch of questionable OL and awful WR in a bad class (for FA WR)!  They've needed to get younger and cheaper on offense for a few years now.

 

What we need is a franchise QB, because right now we don't have one.

 

You don't like franchise QBs?

And here we go with the overreaction.... if Carthon isn't calling around to see what it would take he wouldn't be a good GM. if they really like Stroud or Young enough to move up, I say go for it. Jus

Simmons isn't getting traded.

I'm not believing this based on that source but Tannehill is a decent, short term option with complications. If you want a guy and to put something together, you go get him.   There's basica

Wrong.  You were the one claiming Nagy is some proven developer of QB based on one guy - Mahomes. 

 

Those two great OC's were god awful when they didn't have top tier QB's who were either first round picks or Warner.

 

Nagy gets handed Mahomes, arguably the best QB in the last 20 years, and that's how he got the Chicago gig.  He bombed with 2 young QB's he was supposed to mold.

 

The idea of blaming Nagy for Mitch Trubisky and Fields not becoming elite QB's is pretty silly. They were both not considered good passing prospects, and Fields has mainly had success when running it all the time under the new regime. Nagy took Trubisky to a 12-4 record and a Pro Bowl as a rookie, and Trubisky stinks.

You were the dumb fuck claiming he developed QB's,,,,Not me.

We are not in position to get one for multiple reasons: a) the entire offense needs to be rebuilt and b) suspect QB class and other teams can outbid us since they have more draft currency.

 

It's not that hard and you're the one that needs to be repeatedly reminded of this, daily.

There's no evidence these guys are franchise QB's yet.  By you're criteria, VY, Locker, and Mariota were franchise QB's....

 

There's no evidence any highly drafted rookie is going to be a franchise QB! Lol

 

You don't like Stroud, as an example, as a QB prospect?

I literally did not say that...Why are you always straight up making shit up? At least be accurate when "quoting" me.

 

I said Nagy would be an ideal offensive mind to develop a QB with a skillset like Stroud (AKA NOT THE SKILLSET THAT TRUBISKY AND JUSTIN FIELDS HAVE)

 

It's been reported that Nagy was stuck with Trubisky against his will.

 

Who would you suggest as an offensive mind to groom a highly drafted rookie QB instead?

BTW there's a good chance the new stadium is 2027 based on what Nihill said recently.

Yeah, 2026 was thrown out there because of the WC to try and get immediate movement from the city.  Was always kind of unrealistic.

In some cases, you can be pretty certain a guy is the guy.  And when that's the case, those picks are not up for sale.  Especially when the team with the pick would rather roll with Justin Fields....

 

There are things I do like about Stroud and Young.  There's also stuff I don't like about them that raises flags about their ability to be good in the NFL and certainly if they go to a Titan team that will have a bad OL and questions at the skill spots.

The idea that the Titans OL would be crappy by default even with the cap savings from moving on from Tannehill is not really based on objective reality. There would be ways to improve the OL and WR rooms in FA and the draft. The improvement of the OL room over this year's mess is not entirely contingent on drafting a LT at pick 11. There are multiple ways to address the OL, starting with a better OL coach.

Wrong again!  What the fuck do you think "develop a QB" means?  Aside from Mahomes, who is an unbelievable talent, there's nothing.  Hence I question how ideal he is to develop a QB.  I'm sure he, like every OC in the world, can scheme up some easy one read throws for guys....but that's NOT developing, especially if it goes on for years like a Mariota replay.

As was said already, if we have the 11th pick and need a franchise QB and our GM doesn't al least call to inquire about the cost of trading up, he isn't doing his job. It's due diligence.
