    Hell every team is looking to swap a couple of spots in the middle rounds for a player like Murray. That was robbery by Robinson. Even without Murray being as productive as he was that was a no lose trade.

    In one word; no

    its all about that RFA part, if he was an UFA then sure why not, but having to give up draft picks kills this idea...

    NFL has a very overinflated value of draft picks. #18 could be a game changer, or it could be a Kendall wright/Chance Warmack.

    Give me a guaranteed great player any day over a question mark, especially after the top 10-15 picks.

    That being said, I have no idea who Malcolm Butler is, TBH.

    Think about if we could have traded the Locker pick, the Hunter pick, the DGB pick, the Sankey pick for solid contributors... we'd have quite the solid team right now.

    15 mil/year for a guy with 2 years of production?
    I know that's what happens but I'd rather go with a top draft pick.

    Teams never go after RFAs, so it would be extremely unlikely for the Titans to do it on a guy who would cost them a 1st-round pick.

    Sign a CB and draft another in the 1st. You'll get more production out of those 2 than you would out of just Butler for the same cost (or perhaps even less).

    He's the guy who made the game-saving INT on the goal line in the Super Bowl a couple of years ago. Seahawks fans are still bitching about Carroll calling a pass play instead of letting Marshawn Lynch run it in for a TD and still bitching about Wilson throwing a bad pass on the play. LOL at Seahawks fans.
