    I think that Finny is gone, we will pick up some people in FA and will address the remaining holes in the draft.

    Do I think that's the best course of action? Hell no. This all scares me to death.

    I hope Routt signs a decent deal somewhere else. Getting 7mil a yr. This would set the market for Finny and could make negotiations easier. If Routt signs somewhere for 10mil a yr then you certainly can expect the franchise tag to be placed on Finny.

    1. Finnegan is about the only leader this team has left.

    2. Verner and McCourtey aren't as good. Sorry... I know it's trending to think these young guys can play as well as Fin, but they can't.

    Finnegan is gone. The plan should be to upgrade the pass rush, sign a good CB who can start for us next year, and draft a CB early to eventually take over.

    I'm puzzled by why so many of you think Finnegan is gone. The Titans can (and, I think, probably will) franchise him. At the very least, he should be around for another year.

    Why would let just let him go for nothing?

    Franchising him at $10.6M is a big something, but I feel like the firing of Roberson was a tell tale sign that we wouldn't retain our aging DB's.

    In 2011 our DB's were our defenses bright spot.

    I wouldn't call Finnegan an aging DB.

    He's 28. He's still got some decent time left.

    Well regardless, he aint getting any younger or any better. I like him for our team, but he's pretty much peaked. If the front office decides to part ways, I'd understand.

    Finny has 4 years left as a top 10 corner in this league

    That's interesting, because he's never been a top-ten corner in this league.
