They need to re-sign Ward. DCTitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's it. That core is fine But I would also be cool with holding onto Levin, Udoh, Lynch and Cox. Low cost guys who have more than been worth their price tags. Personally I keep Sweat, as well. Slater, Harris, Winston Jr. it's too early to let them walk. Edited October 20 by Lantern NashvilleNinja, and titanskick8851 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The list of players off limits is obviously greater than just Ward and Simmons. Russini has no connections in BSP. Vrabel was her guy and she’s made that painfully clear to everyone who will listen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had one sack in 7 games, he's been decent. He's for a contender not a rebuilding team at this point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Titans aren't going the latter route. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thumbtack Posted October 20 Report Share Posted October 20 Date of completed trade: Oct. 14, 2024 SEATTLE RECEIVES: DE Roy Robertson-Harris JACKSONVILLE RECEIVES: 2026 sixth-round draft pick Laughable to think we wouldn't get a draft pick for Ward, very similar trade went down last year. A 32 year old edge rusher isn't in the future plans, and this season isn't getting turned around this year or next. If a team came and offered any draft pick for him it would be silly to turn them down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a building block but we can't replace the entire roster in one off-season so someone has to be retained. Trust me, I wish we could cut everyone but that's not realistic. oldschool, and oracle 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if they plan to let him walk thats a different story DCTitan, Mythos27, and airmcnair22 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is a communication problem. Someone should take the time to attempt to make it clear which positions, age range of players, etc. are in the conversation. Other variables include what is the general consensus for a "winning window" and the expected value for a trade. Since draft picks will be the common currency (instead of player-for-player trades), what is the expectation for that pick? Depth for a few years? Development player? Starter? Star? The Titans are a franchise with a history of shit drafting. Perhaps this last draft is the start of a new trend, though. Talk of the team's salary cap space should also include a list of players to extend and potential free agents. Extending a player is MUCH easier than wooing one to this team. There's a misconception out there that there is no bias with the FAs choosing where they go. DCTitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
