    Fairley isn't a winner, or a worker. Once he gets a payday, he's done.

    This dude is made for 1 year prove it deals, or purely incentive contracts added to base salary

    Completely disagree. He has the same skill sets as Wright, but better in every aspect. This is also Wright last year of contract. If we can upgrade a position with a pro bowl player, we do it. I like to sign Cobb and draft a big WR in the top 3/4 rounds. A group of Wright, Hunter, Cobb, and Rookie is very good. Cobb could help Wright as well take that next step which we have all been waiting for. Cobb may digress this year, but most would leaving Rodgers. If Mett has a big arm like we have seen and an O line that has a hard time protecting, we need players like Cobb who can get open quickly and move with the ball that wont fall down ala Wight.

    People might rake me over the coals for this but the guy I want us to stay away from (who hasn't already been mentioned) is Bryan Bulaga. He has never played a full season without being injured and before 2014 has never played more then 12 games. He is a great right tackle but he is going to command way too much money for a player who is going to be on the IR that much.

    Cobb will see a huge decrease in production without Rodgers throwing to him. I don't want the Titans stuck with that kind of contract.

    So would every other WR in the league. We need playmakers. He is one and cheaper than Dez or D Thomas

    I pretty much agree with that entire list.

    OL and DL are what I think needs addressed before anything. I like Casey on the DL, and hopefully they draft Leonard Williams and that is a really good 2. Just need a good Nose.

    OL wise I would think we have a solid 3 with Lewan, Roos, and Warmack. Need to fill the other two spots either via draft or FA.

    Titans have many needs, but that is where I would start, personally.

    Agreed! i think we should look to free agency for this players, and use the draft for other holes the Titans have.

    Take a look at Dan Williams, he's a great NT for the Cardinals coming to free agency. Williams is great at taking a double team, and allowing the LB getting through the gaps which the Titans need.

    According to ESPN Packers reporter Rob Demovsky, indications are free agent Randall Cobb is seeking a contract that averages $9M per season.

    The extension Jordy Nelson signed with the Packers last season averaged $9.75M, comparable Victor Cruz is making $7.64M and last year's No. 1 free agent wideout DeSean Jackson got $8M annually. Cobb's demands could very well be met on the open market come March, as he's just 24 years old and uniquely explosive out of the slot. And we don't doubt that the Packers, who are scheduled to have nearly $23M in cap space, want him back. But it's unclear if GM Ted Thompson wants to dump all this cash on Cobb, especially with intriguing cheap youngsters like Davante Adams and Jeff Janis on the roster.

    $9 Million/yr for an X receiver? Megatron? YEA!!!
    $9 Million/yr for another slot receiver? Uhhhhh noooo thank you!

    We have Cobb already in Wright. You put Wright in Green Bay and he suddenly looks like a stud too.

    I agree Cobb is worthy being on the dont touch list, but not because he's bad, he's not, just way over hyped.
