    A bunch of those guys will re-up with their teams and never be available.

    Have to disagree with this statement because JRob did invest in the OL. The issue was that he invested poorly.

    LT has got to be a priority. Hopefully Jones lets the Titans know if he is going to retire or not before the draft. Late 1st/Early 2nd rnd can be a spot to grab one of the better centers in the draft.

    I’m not sure what JR did was called investing… He was absolutely terrible at OL evaluation.

    Philly is paying $50m/yr for arguably the best OL in football.
    If you remove Lewan and his gimpy knees from the equation, the starting Titans OL this year made just $10 million. And $7m of that was Ben Jones! Davis, NPF, Brewer and Daley combined to cost just $3 million.
    That is textbook underinvestment.
    Nobody could have expected that to be a starting caliber group.

    Olawatimi from Michigan is really good. He would slide in day one at center. I'm guessing we resign Davis. That leaves left guard and Left Tackle. Whichever you feel more comfortable getting in free agency, you get the other with the first round pick.

    I would expect jones to retire. We also have to resign Nate Jones though or we are going to end up losing the two competent parts of our oline.

    LT has been a hole for 2 seasons plus now thanks to Tay-tay's need for magic juice.

    RT has been a hole for even longer cause robinson misread Conklin injury

    RG has been a hole ever since robinson drafted wilson the bitcoin billionaire

    LG was a hole last year cause saffold, who was avg-above avg, left

    C has literally been only spot robinson addressed and lets face it - it appears he just got lucky with Jones


    there is nobody in the OL room that has to be retained for any reason. If they dont fit into the rebuild plan then move on from them.


    and Jones 100% welcome back at C IMO

    First pick has to be LT if at all possible. If some game changing stud is passed up and falls to us…ok then. LT absolutely has to be addressed and Lewan can kick rocks or be paid near league minimum as depth, which he won’t do.

    I like Skoronski but talk is he will be better at guard. If not him, Harrison from Oklahoma would be my pick. Big and athletic for his size.
