Strike while the iron is hot

Most definitely. He's going to get closer to 30mil than he is 22mil. I saw a report that Jameis would be seeking 30mil annually. Obviously doesn't mean he'll get it after his time in TB, but I'd imagine he'll get close. That's the going rate for a starting QB. Like you said, once it gets that high, it looks a lot easier to tag him for a year.

 

There are only 5 QBs getting 30M plus, but I get the trend is that whoever signs next sets the market, so that number will increase every year.

 

Reports are Mahommes is looking at a 40mil a year contract. That changes everything if Mahommes signs before RT. If I am RTs agent I tell him we arent signing anything until we see the Mahommes contract.

 

Yep. Escalation is the way contract go, especially at QB. There will be better QBs than RT that make less—it is just a timing issue. I can see tagging him to see if he can come close to what he did this year. There is wisdom in that.

 

We have a Titan QB and RB in the Pro Bowl... that hasn't ever happened has it?..get the contracts done and focus on the draft

 

Look at the money Cousins got. Tannehill would get paid

 

The real question is how long will Tannys contract be? I bet he's going to want something long term like a 5 year deal.

 

Well it’s pretty simple -

Tanny and Henry BOTH have to be resigned

if only one or neither the window closes.

a rookie QB and or a rookie RB and all the progress from this year goes backwards

and a different veteran replacement isn’t the answer either ; it’s not broke so don’t try and find a cheaper option

 

Starting to hear a lot of speculation on nfl network by those “in the know” , saying titans are looking at the franchise tag for tanny....that they want to see more “body of work” from him before a long term commitment
