Breaking News With the 18th pick of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Titans select WR Treylon Burks, Arkansas

The 5th year option is the big piece I agree with and the only reason I don’t mind Tennessee (not just any team) takes a first round WR

 

5th year option didn't help with Brown...

 

Maybe an option year shouldn’t be limited to first rounders?

 

hmm... can't tell if this is sarcasm or not

 

The way things are going, that 5th year will be costly

 

I mean, we've been worse off..... Corey Davis and Taywan Taylor..... lol
they were so bad for their pick value that 5th rounder Tajae Sharpe got a starter job

 

If you mean AJ Brown, he didn’t have a 5th year option because he was a 2nd rounder.

 

As much as I liked Brown, the Titans did the right thing, I don't think his heart was in Nashville without a new deal....I don't think he's worth 25 mil but that's the market. Without a new deal he would have left in FA at the end of the season and who knows what year he would have gave us. He got 25 mil for 2 1000 yd seasons and getting dinged up...he was looking at a big payday anyway.

 

Yes, but costly for 1 year, not 4 or 5. It also gives you negotiation room in the 4th year to work out a reasonable extension. If it doesn't work out, the player shouldn't be diva unhappy because they know they're getting a payday the following year regardless. If they ball out that year, then they can get paid somewhere else and we get a comp.

 

I liked Brown too.... but when you're in a contract dispute with an injury prone WR and you can get the value of a 1st round pick out of a trade.... then you crushed his draft selection..


Turning a 2nd round pick in 2019, into a 1st round and a 3rd round in 2022.
