    Here's some S FAs that are somewhat well known, and still available:

    Roman Harper
    Atari Bigby
    Dawan Landry
    Danieal Manning
    Bernard Pollard
    Gerald Sensabaugh
    Reed Doughty
    Dashon Goldson
    Michael Huff
    Tom Zbikowski (RFA)
    Donte Whitner

    Sounds like Hope is going to be our starting SS, unless Robert Johnson, Myron Rolle, Schommer, or Tommie Campbell wow our coaching staff.

    I'd be happy with Landry or Goldson.

    Really hope the Jags don't get LB Clint Session....I'd love to see us get him for our MLB spot once Tulloch is gone.....Session seems to always do great against us

    Saw this on VolQuest.....just thought I would post it

    "A little birdie texted me about an hour ago and told me that the Titans are in discussions with Kevin Burnett about coming to Nashville.

    No assurances on if it will happen, but I thought that might be news some people would care about.

    Always liked KB"

    No joke. The thought of Puz and Sessions to the Jags is terrifying.

    My wish list, hope list, realistic list.

    Not taking into account who has been signed or traded already, just what I would have done or wanted to do.

    Wish List
    QB - Sign M.Hasselbeck
    FB - Sign V.Leach
    WR - Sign Santonio Holmes and Lance Moore
    TE - Sign Zach Miller
    OC - Sign Damian Woody
    OG - Sign Davin Joseph
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    CB - Sign Namdi Asomugha
    S - Sign Quintin Mikell
    LB - Sign Manny Lawson (Jack) and Kevin Burnett MLB
    DE - Sign Charles Johnson
    DT - Sign Cullen Jenkins

    Considering we'd cut Hope, VY, Gage and not re-sign several of our free agents. Do able IF those players would come here EXCEPT if we got Asomugha and Johnson, we'd have to not sign Leach, Moore, Miller and Lawson but it'd be worth it! No way I'd break the bank on CJ but I'd try and meet him halfway with a compromised new deal that protects him AND us!

    If the above players are already signed or won't come here, here's next in line...

    Hope list
    QB - Hasselbeck
    FB - Le'Ron McLain
    WR - Braylon Edwards and Santana Moss
    TE - Sign Kevin Boss
    OC - Sign Olin Kreutz
    OG - Sign Harvey Dahl
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    CB - Sign Jonathan Joseph
    S - Sign Michael Huff
    LB - Sign James Anderson OLB and Takeo Spikes MLB
    DE - Sign Ray Edwards
    DT - Sign Aubrayo Franklin

    Since the Titans aren't nearly as aggressive as I am, here's a more realistic list of what they might/could do.

    QB - Haselbeck is signed...YAY!
    FB - re-sign Hall
    WR - JJones from GB, BSmith from Jets, Naanee from SD or taking a chance on PBurress. With Britts future uncertainty, I expect them to grab somebody who could replace Gage.
    TE - Maybe a Pope or Thomas who are solid and BIG players who can come cheap and give a lot of experience and depth to the younger Cook and Stevens.
    OL - I don't expect the Titans to make a move here but they'd be NUTS if they didn't at least inquire about the availability of Damian Woody and Sean O'Hara who were both released though I expect the Jets want Woody back and O'Hara is coming off of injury.
    S - should have taken a look into Quintin Mikell and NOW should be looking at Huff. Otherwise, unless Gray gets creative, Hope could still be our opening day starter.
    CB - The Titans won't make a move here unless someone is released who they like better than Mouton.
    LB - they will fill this with a replacement for Tulloch assuming Tulloch goes for the money. Ruud, Morrison, blah blah blah.
    DE - They should make a push for a DE if they can afford one. Johnson was the jewel of the RDE fa class - young, big-ish, and productive! Edwards is decent sized and alright but I wouldn't break the bank for him. He didn't dominate with an excellent interior DT pair and one of the best pass rushers on the other side. We don't have either. I'd rather get Kiwanuka when the dust settles!
    DT - Cullen Jenkins was the guy to get - big, active, and can rush the passer. I'd take a flyer on some of the other guys (Franklin, Branch, Henderson, Harris, AH)

    Unfortunately, the Titans should go big but will probably go small in free agency. If Asomugha is the answer to beating the Colts, why aren't we in the market? We have the cap room! And if not him, Joseph. It's not often you'll find 2 premiere CB's on the market while we have a ton of cap room to use.

    Some radical ideas...

    Sign Asomugha and move Verner to S alongside Griffin.
    Sign Joseph and move Verner to S.
    Sign no CB but move Fuller into Hope's spot.
    Build a dominant OL by signing Woody (OC), sign Joseph and Dahl and cut Amano and Scott. If CJ doesn't wanna come back to run behind them, we don't need him to.

    Players we should be looking to deal - Hope,VY, Gage. Send 2 of them to Wash for AH.

    IMO, we have a vet at QB now, CJ should fall into line but the best thing we can do for CJ is build a dominant OL for him to run behind. I like Williams at WR but Britt is working hard for the Pacman get me out of here trophy. So WR could be an issue. If we can block, we can run and if we can run, we can take shots deep and score.

    We need to stop the run but also need to rush the passer and COVER!!! I expect a Pro Bowl year out of Griff and someone not named Hope to be next to him by seasons end. We will have a new and/or untested LB corp and new untested pieces at DL. No one knows if JJ will be a dominant or even good DE and whether Derrick Morgan can play that spectacular or last a season. How will TBrown come back and who's gonna step up and play next to him? LOTS OF QUESTIONS!!!

    PLEASE GET US SOME HELP - and not just backups!
