Titans sign Vic Beasley

ILBs arent whats at debate

 

Trevon Diggs, aj Terrell or cj henderson if we're lucky. Weaver a strong pass unless it's in the 3rd round.

 

Well then he’s only spent a high pick on Landry and Dodd. He’s 1/2. You can’t complain about 5th and 6th round picks. That’s just dumb.

 

Somebody in here put me on him when they told me he looked like jj watt. I thought it was bs but then i looked and he's the exact same size as watt and the tape shows him having some very watt-like capabilities.

He's a giant force with an extremely high motor. He would be best suited as a 5 tech in a 3-4 who can also rush the edge in passing situations kinda like Watt is used in Houston. Also, its noteworthy to add that epenesa has said he models his game after watt...he also had the same exact amount of TFLs(with 15 more sacks) as Watt did in their respective college careers.

He was being projected to go in the middle of the 1st(also like watt), but after his poor combine performance, he's been falling to the end of the 1st/beginning of the 2nd in alot more mocks.

Id probably rather have a corner like Henderson, Diggs or AJ Terrell in rd 1, but I wouldn't be mad if we went this direction. Casey is on his way out and daqoun gets paid way too much to be so mediocre. Im not saying the dude is the next jj watt or that it's the best thing for this team right now, but the thought is intriguing to say the least.

 

I don't love it, but don't hate it either. I'm excited to see if Roberson can develop, too. I think the culture and Vrabel will be good for Beasley. And he can definitely ball.

It does bum me a tad because I wanted Gross- Matos so badly.

 

Weaver was highest rated PFF college edge defender after Chase Young. Yes, the level of play wasn't the same, but his production was still very good even against the good teams they played. And it's hard to argue against the total production in his career (something J-Rob loves).

Leighton Vander Eishch was also a Boise State product with similar small school concerns and I was really high on him as well.

 

Beasley has actually been really durable. Only missed 2 games in his career so far.

 

I agree with whoever said it should have been at least a 2 year deal. That way he can't bolt after Vrabel and Co. play him at his natural position in a 3-4 instead of a 4-3 end. Probably going to have a Jason Babin situation with Beasley going into next year.

My only worry with Beasley is his game is really similar to Landry's. Both are speed guys off the edge with not many moves in their repertoire. I still think we need to address pass rush early in the draft and not keep putting a band-aid on the position like with Wake.

 

Yeah, but speed kills.

 

Yea Im not thrilled by this addition but MAYBE Vrabel can make him something

Just rewatched his Super Bowl game, horrible. But hey if anyone can get him going its Vrabel.

Im trying to like this but....
