Titans Sign Trevor Siemian

Shoulda picked Blankenship in the 7th

 

So we traded a worthless player fora guy we not even keep on the ps. Sounds like a fair trade

 

Well lets face it - the Titans needed someone with some decent experience as a back up to win a few games if need be ... safer option than a 7th round rookie and a guy whose been on our practice squad

 

Yep, Siemian has some pop in his throws too. A very solid back up. Thank goodness. I was not sold on Woodside at all.

 

This is good news, I was a little nervous not having an option behind Tanny with any real game time experience should he go down for a game or two.

Having a solid backup last year was the difference between a lost season, and an AFC Championship game.

 

We should have added another RB that can pound the rock in the 7th imo. Granted, you aren’t getting a stud there, so you roll the dice...but we knew that McDonald was likely hitting the PS anyway. Might was well get a guy that may be able to fight for some goal line work, backup, and block etc....

 

Not a bad pickup. Better backup situation than we had yesterday (or even last year after Tanne took over)

 

Gotta say, having a backup with 25 starts and a career winning record that averages over 200 yards a game is a bit of a relief. My guess is seeing Woodside and Sunshine next to Tanny in practice really brought home what a step down it would be if they were ever called into service.

 

Career winning record isn’t a QB stat. If it was, Broncos probably still have him starter until he has a losing record.

 

It’s not a total reflection on the QB, but it does indicate a level of stability and reliability.
