Lendale officially wants out of Tennessee

Might as well.


I'd want to leave a team that loved playing me until I showed work ethic and the will to become better- only to bench me for the entire season.

I hope he gets his wish and does well. Sucks to be a player in a system ran by buffoons.

 

Trade him. I wonder what we could get for him though. If guys like Boldin and Cromartie go for a 3rd then we probably couldn't get any more than a 4th or a 5th at best.

 

He with Kevin Smith would be great- IF they had even slightly decent blocking.

I feel bad for Kevin Smith. The guy's a great back, and no one will ever know because he's hit in the backfield every time he touches the ball.

 

Well, I have no reason to give up faith in Ringer yet. I think his potential exceeds Lendale. Hopefully they tendered him (haven't paid much attention) and someone actually wants him enough to drop their draft picks. We can sure as hell use as many as we can get if all we're going to do is let our players leave this offseason.

 

Shut up, fatty. You're hurting your trade value.

Players who come out and say stuff like this are idiots. Just keep your mouth shut (at least when it comes to the media). Saying you want a trade decreases your trade value, which makes a trade less likely.

 

I don't blame him or have any animosity towards his coming out and saying this. It's obvious he wants to start, as he's young and has a promising ability, but he knows CJ is the man at that position in Tenn and he can't touch that. So there is nothing wrong with him wanting out. If we can get some picks for him, lets do it. But who is going to give us a 2nd round pick for lendale? It's highly doubtful that anyone gives him an offer so we won't get a trade for a 2nd round pick either. I do wish him the best and hope he can find a team where he can start.

 

Lendale is not a NFL starting RB in my opinion. He just hasn't showed me the flashes to be a every down RB. Why didn't he complain about his role when he was at USC behind Reggie Bush? Honestly, i want to see Lendale as a Titan next year and i do admit he needs more carries.

 

Send him wherever he wants to go. Bring in Brian Westbrook to spell CJ and he can even play the slot. Great guy out of the backfield, it's 3rd down and him and CJ are in the backfield who do you cover?

 

I wish Pete Carroll would come knocking. I doubt we get a 2nd for him though.

 

We don't need a 2nd. Just a 3rd that we could use in trade to move in to the 2nd.
