    That's the thing, WHO tho? There's not really any great FA DEs...

    That's my point, we have to do something. I know our options are very limited but we will be in big trouble if we can only bring Ball and Hayes back. We have to do better than that.

    At this point, they need to start filling the holes with bodies. THIS is all we have on the roster:

    99 Jurrell Casey DT
    69 Zach Clayton DT
    -- Keyunta Dawson DT
    -- Lamar Divens DT
    79 Pannel Egboh DE
    97 Karl Klug DT
    94 Sen'Derrick Marks DT
    90 Derrick Morgan DE
    93 Shaun Smith DT

    That's obviously not going to cut it.

    Shaun Smith is huge but he gets pushed around more than Michael Griffin. Question Marks is the biggest joke the Titans have had since Chris Henry. Derrick Morgan is entering "bust-land" (it absolutely kills me to say that, hopefully he can show up next year). Klug is a beast but isn't an every down DT due to being undersized. Casey showed flashes of greatness but needs a better counterpart in the DT department. If we don't get some GOOD, reliable veterans...we're in for a LONG year.

    Couple that with the absence of Finnegan, the re-signing of Babs (who isn't that great) and the franchise tagged Griffin (who we all know plays soft and hasn't had a good year since 2008) and we are in for some serious trouble. Hopefully guys like McCourty, Verner, Hawkins and Campbell can step up and be the guys we need them to be or we will be picking in the top 10 in the draft next year.

    We need to upgrade the talent not just fill the roster with bodies. You can fill with bodies after training camp cuts. You find your starters in FA and the 1st couple rnds of the draft.

    sign Mario Williams

    trade up and get Janoris Jenkins to replace Finnegan.

    That's really my only requests for this offseason....besides P Manning of course.

    First thing yes

    Second thing no. Fletcher Cox yes. CB can be had later we need a pass rush to make our CB look good otherwise any CB will be average with the 31st ranked pass rush.

    Third thing replaced with fixing holes on the o-line.

    Aside from morgan,we don't have a D.E. worth a pint of piss.The draft offers some young potential,but how can a defensive coach expect to pressure a QB with our current roster?

    Titans make it official with re-signing of LB Patrick Bailey, special-teams standout.

    Also, OL Velasco and DE Sheppard have signed new deals as exclusive rights free agents. #Titans
