Titans Offseason Cuts

I never said he was the answer... I said the Colts were formidable even with Brisset at QB.

That's how solid a team they are.

And yes, barely losing 5 games and EASILY winning the others makes you a formidable team.

Basic stats mean nothing without context.

 

If 10 Mil is what AJ25 is about to cost us, then I fully agree he either needs to go or restructure to a pretty significant pay cut.

 

I see Brissett as pretty underrated too. Not great by any means, but a decent QB and far from one of those "auto losses" when he plays.

 

But the squad, as a whole, are damn good.

 

10.2 is his 2021 cap hit, that was the 5th year option so I assume the intent is to restructure into a long term deal if they believe he is the CB we drafted.

 

I wish it was that simple

break it down more and look at who Butler was covering

if he is playing against teams WR1, they are going to target them regardless

that’s why dudes like Sherman get heat, they only play one side of the field

 

Not even really sure what we're arguing with Butler. He's easily our best DB and probably one of the league's best in a league where all the advantage goes to QB/WR. Keep him on the team, just work the best team friendly contract as possible.

 

Notable 2021 cap hits

Tannehill 29.5
Byard 15
Butler 14.2
Lewan 13.7
Saffold 12.4
Jackson 10.2
Humphries 9.75
Henry 13.5
Vaccaro 7.0
Ben Jones 7.25

We could restructure Butler, Jackson, Saffold, Byard

Cut Vaccaro, Ben Jones?

Could Tannehill and Henry restructure to give team cap relief on their new deals?

 

Doubt it, they both left money on the table to stay

 

Byard owes money back from his performance this year.
Saffold is way over paid for what he offers. Either get to half that or he should go, let Brewer step up.
Vaccaro can go. Like him, but if guys need cut to save money, he's expendable.
Humphries has been discussed, too expensive but cap hit if cut.
Can't expect THill or Henry would restructure because they both just got their contracts.

And unless someone is ready to replace Ben Jones, he's a keeper to me.
