    Right now all we see is we lost Brown and gained Burks...it's to be seen if we improved... hopefully if what I've read about Burks is true...I think we will be fine

    I think Titans dumped an established Top 15 WR ( to save CAP ) for a rookie who might or might not be a good player.

    And forfeited the opportunity to upgrade elsewhere by trading out of 26


    so day 1 is clearly a step back. Hell even Indy stayed the same. Titans found a way to go backwards on day 1 of the 2022 draft

    You obviously have a poor grasp of the salary cap. He was not worth that much money. When they pay him that much and can’t afford to re-sign Simmons, you gonna be mad at them again? You can’t just pay every player what they THINK they are worth. Every time a bad team overpays a player to come there in free agency, every player at that position can’t automatically be paid more than that person. That’s not how the league has ever worked and it cannot work like that. This isn’t Madden.

    The star receiver said the annual salary was around $16 million with the Titans’ proposed extension, with incentives increasing the deal to around $20 million a year. If he would have stayed in Tennessee, he would have only earned around $4 million in 2022 in his fourth year of his rookie contract.

    Yeah and if you notice, those teams saying otherwise are teams with losing records. The teams trading them away like the Chiefs, Packers, Titans and Ravens are regular playoff teams. I think I would prefer to be more like the Chiefs and Packers than the Jaguars and Dolphins. It’s not about saving cap, it’s about being able to be under the cap. You can’t pay everyone on a team with 50 players 20 million each a year unless the salary cap is 1 billion. Simple math some people don’t seem to understand. You really want to dedicate 15% of your salary cap to one WR who has barely eclipsed 1000 yards once and can’t stay healthy , and acts like a child on top of that?

    agreed... and I think ADDING to the team on day 1 of the draft would be nice.

    It was a reasonable expectation, as a fan, that the Titans would actually be better at the end of day 1 of the draft.

    I am disappoint


    could have stayed at 26 ... at least then an argument could have been made that team improved
