First the interior OL HAS TO BE FIXED THIS OFF-SEASON. I dont wanna hear the injury excuse or anything like that because it has been an issue for 3 years, Its time to fix it. Its time to invest HIGH draft picks and above average free agents to fix it. We dang near refuse to use a 1st/2nd round pick on an interior OL. But how did we get our best OL. By using a 2nd round draft pick. This is a pivatal year for Locker and CJ might only have a few GREAT years left. We need to give these guys the talent in front of them to suceed.
Personally I think we need 2 upgrades not just one. I think we need to sign a very good FA, or make a Trade and then spend a high draft pick on one.
Football is won in the trenches, and we need to upgrade ours.
We fix the OL and the sky is the limit for Locker, who has a crazy strong arm and multiple WRs that can stretch the field deep. We have one of the most explosive RBs in the game, and we need to give him so talent in front. |
Would you like to join us on the staff? You are more than welcome to do so if you want to!

Looking over the roster, it appears we have far less cap room than John Clayton led me to believe.

Sounds like right around $5 million in cap space. I believe Clayton said we would be right around $18 or 19 million.

Personally, I would target the capologist.

Rage needs to hurry up and accept the job, in that case.

Sure! what kind of position would you be interested in?
Also:
Today is the deadline for the salary cap situation. Does everything look normal regarding the Titans?
Edit:
http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/tennessee-titans/cap-hit/2013/
That's the link we are using IIRC.

I think there are some very obvious cap cuts we can make that will free up a ton of room, possibly for 2 premier FAs.

In significantly better news, it appears that the original cap room did not include the carry over that we were able to bring over from the 2012 salary cap. As a result, we actually are sitting with $18.5 million in room, a number which will likely go up a decent amount as we cut a few of the dead weight players.

Whew, Good news! So when do the cuts begin Monday? Having this cap space is great. 2 top free agents at least!
The CB scouting report is near completion,with the MLB position coming soon also. |

Nice!
So the cap room carry over is in the real NFL or from last year's FFMD?
Either way, almost $20 mil in room, plus some more cuts, we can do some serious work in FA this season.
