@ctmthe Titans did not acquire the Jets 6th round pick as part of the Brownlee trade the Jets had already traded that pick away to the Jags.   The Titans acquired the Ravens 6th round pick a

if the team struggles now and misses the playoffs this could look bad

Jon Robinson drafted 23 players from 2020-2022. Chig Okonkwo is the lone player that remains. Just in case people need a reminder why this team is in the shape it is in

Using the Jimmy Johnson trade value chart the Titans received the value of pick #166 for sending McCreary to the Rams which is around a mid 5th round pick which is fair value for a 10 game rental of McCreary.

 

Due to the Rams already having their bye if he stays healthy McCreary will play an 18 game regular season.

 

This trade also continues a recent trend of acquiring teams preferring to deal with pick swaps than outright trade away picks.  My suspicion this new trend is tied to the massive salary cap increase diluting the FA pool year after year and teams putting a higher value on individual draft picks in the player acquisition cycle.

The McCreary trade makes more sense to me than the Brownlee trade. 

 

I will say it is going to get worse before it gets better. 

 

Hope beyond hope we get the #1 overall pick and someone offers a King's Ransom for a QB. 

 

Maybe the Browns end up somewhere in the top 5 and give us the Jags picks and other firsts. We need it so desperately. We'll probably be drafting Jeremiah Smith in 2027.

A good start, but the finishing touch will be if we actually do finish with the 1st overall pick (or just a top 3 pick) and start trading down. Borgonzi might walk out of the 26 deaft with anywhere from 11-14 players.

If he's this good, we might wanna deal Simmons amirite? 

 

The trouble with dealing Simmons, is you're just hoping to draft another Simmons. I am of the mindset that DT isn't that important (in terms of need of elite talent)
