TerryBoats Posted October 20 Report Share Posted October 20 13 minutes ago, TeamRamrod said: He let Carthon (the GM) handle the roster. Just like he is doing now with Borgonzi It sure sounds like he was involved in the entire FA/draft debacle of 2024. "Additionally, he reshaped and refined the foundation of the team's analytics department from the ground up, while building and executing the 2024 and 2025 offseason strategies for player acquisitions in both free agency and the draft." https://www.tennesseetitans.com/team/front-office-roster/chad-brinker Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschool Posted October 20 Report Share Posted October 20 1 hour ago, TerryBoats said: Was he not Ran's boss? This isn't fantasy football. The amount of discussion and coordinator which takes place before using a high pick and spending so much of the owners money would have given ample opportunity to intervene. Unless he was running a loose ship and didn't thoroughly vet one of the biggest decisions of Carthon - who had essentially just been demoted - in which case he should also be fired. Brinker wasn't Carthon's boss, they both reported directly to AAS at that point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschool Posted October 20 Report Share Posted October 20 9 minutes ago, Callidus said: Ya, ran hired brinker. And then brinker got promoted over him after the fact. There is a lot misunderstanding locally and nationally as to when Brinker took over. Officially he took over after Carthon was fired. Unofficially, he had to step in for Carthon last year when Carthon couldn't do his job, got PIP'd, and was essentially told to go home on administrative leave. Before that, Brinker and Carthon were a dual headed snake reporting directly to AAS post Vrabel being fired. Now all that being said, I find it oddd how much criticism Brinker avoids when he was clearly involved in football decisions the past 2 years before Borgonzi was hired and while Borgonzi is the GM, its pretty clear Brinker is in charge and is involved day to day.

AussieTitanFan08 Posted 21 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 21 hours ago Schefter weighing in on the Titans ahead of the trade deadline. This kind of feels like a plea from the Titans to make us an offer on anyone not named Ward or Simmons. Supernope 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
titansfan Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago Sounds like a lot of noise is being drummed up by Tennessee. This is week two going onto three of reports that we want to be active at the trade deadline. Sounds a lot like we are open for business but nobody is excited about what we're selling DCTitan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callidus Posted 20 hours ago Report Share Posted 20 hours ago What are the thoughts around here about taking 2027 or 2028 picks if we can get higher return that way? Brinker and Borgonzi talk about things in terms of a 3 year plan so maybe they would be more open to it if it nets them a round higher on any trades they may do.

They aren't in a position to be choosy on the guys with expiring contracts if teams are only willing to give up future picks they should take it.
