    I'm sure as valued as corners are these days he didn't come cheap, but it's always better to overpay a little to re-sign one of your own guys rather than over reach for a relatively unknown commodity. The Titans know exactly what they're getting in Fuller (and clearly they like what he has to offer).

    I thought Fuller was long gone. Many teams are going to fork out big bucks to DB's with much less game than Vincent.

    Good signing... his value as a special teamer and NB is enough to keep him around. He's been really consistent, and seems like he even stepped up to make some key plays last season. I'd like to see King back at CB... he really played well in limited chances, but he's got to stay healthy.

    As much as the Titans play nickel, it's a key position and probably close to being as important as Tullochs. He can back Griffin and probably handle outside CB duties in a pinch. Solid special teams guy too.

    Glad to see him stick around. I love how he seems to have a knack for taking picks to the house.

    He's proabably one of the most underrated players on our team.
