    being hurt part of the season is one of the reasons it was a bad signing..


    take a look at Chandler Parson's last 5 or 6 years.... getting hurt is a bad thing for the team.

    JRob, as is his tendency, overpaid Hump

    Just as he did with Butler, Kline, Saffold, Lewis

    People at the time said "Who cares" but if you add up the money saved if these guys were paid more in line with their ability (other than Kline) and we would not have had to cheap out at CB this year.

    The cap matters, as much as people want to pretend it doesn't.

    I don't disagree, but you pretty much have to overpay to get free agents.

    This board is way better than it was several years ago, but people would give their free agency wish list and it would be some CB they are going to sign them for like 2 years, $8 million. Then that player would sign for something like 5 years, $50 million somewhere else. And then we'd cry about how we wouldn't go get good players.

    I don’t think it necessarily “who cares” as much as if we don’t pay them, someone else will and we can’t just keep accepting lesser talent because of cost.

    He does not throw out numbers to get guys. He pays what he thinks he has to for players he thinks we need. Would you rather we paid half as much for other players who are not even worth that?

    And who do you think are some properly valued free agent pick ups from other teams? You need to remember this is still the Titans. You need to fork over money to get talent here, especially when JRob first started. I bet you'll find a lot more contacts that you would consider "over paid" than bargains.

    That's just how the NFL works. You get underpaid players in the draft and have to overpay in free agency.

    Humphries is not overpaid. The Patriots offered him MORE money than what we signed him for. So you can consider that value. We paid less than market price. It is unfortunate he got hurt and we had super inconsistent QB play.

    That’s the beauty of fans...ticked off if we lose a FA - “the FO didn’t even try.” Or mad because we outbid someone and now we “over paid.” I guess people forget how bad the roster was prior to JR. Sometimes you have to open the wallet and sometimes that works great and sometimes not.

    Back to Mason, it’s also amusing how we both “crown” and “doom” players before they ever play a down. Every single year.
