The Titans were already a problem regardless, but now they become a bigger threat.

I always get jealous to see already good teams try and get better. That's why this franchise can't get out of it's own way. If we do have a good season we don't try to improve on it. We "like our guys" too much.

Julio is way too injured lately and he is 32 years old. The titans were close to the SB... maybe a healthy JUlio added with Brown is enough to send them there. We werent close, so who we should we trade for> If they win a SB, it was a great trade, if not, it was a horrible trade.

I wouldn't have been upset to get legit defensive help instead of guys coming off injuries and draft picks we hope will hit.

Can Henry have a back to back 2000 yard season? This really opens things up for him

I think it depends on if Julio can stay healthy. If Julio can stay healthy, then yes. If not, it's still certainly possible with the player that he is, but Julio opens things enough to where teams can't just focus on trying to stop Henry.

Falcons grab a 2nd and 4th but have to eat over 20 million dollars in dead cap.

If he stays reasonabile healthy Titans get a good deal, I think there only on the hook for 3 years at 38 million since Atlanta is eating all the bonuses
not sure I do that deal. Atlanta is pretty much about to finish their rebuild.I guess. What's next? I guess getting Quinn was a big break. For us.

the true value of trade only happens at seasons end when ranking and the draft is set, then the players chosen in those spots and actually if you wan to be technical how those players turn out,,so you cant tell me what it truly is in value either..

its why i settle on 3 , seems fair...

good thing im not CPA and would purposely get you flagged :)))

If getting a 2 and a 4 for a 6 seems like acquiring a 3 to you I blame your teachers.

you did see the titans light it up in the air last year, no?

No, he didn’t. He thought RGIII balled-out for the Ravens (1 TD/4 INTs in 14 games) but for some reason thinks Tannehill’s 55 TDs/13 INTs, 6,500+ yards in two seasons w/the Titans is an issue.

We’ve got dumb fans.

Very true, but the difference is most of “like our guys” don’t asked to be traded. Next, see GB with the Rodgers situation.

Fantastic deal for the Titans. I looked up the contract on Spotrac, Julio's cap hits for the next 3 years are $15M / $11M / $11M, with only $2M dead cap in 2022. Nelson freaking Agholor got $11M/yr in free agency, which receiver would you want for the same money?

A 2nd rounder is nothing either. You're not going to get a 2nd round pick that plays at even a late career Julio level when he's healthy.

So me saying that then automatically means I wanted the Cowboys to go after Jones?

Yikes.

I guess I shouldn't bring up the Cowboys on a Cowboys forum if I don't want my words to be twisted. Lesson learned.
Oh great, so now you're saying we need to get Earl Thomas???...just ribbing ya.

exactly its basically a 3 ...and whats the point of this in the Cowboys zone..it means less then zero for Cowboys news..o_O:rolleyes::popcorn:
So glad Julio didnt go to the Skins, thought for sure they would be a player, yet they do have generated cap room so there is something brewing there potentially.
We can all gladly dismiss Julio now, one less HOF dominating WR in the conference to deal with, but Arod to WFL is stinking up the room,, we do not want to see that happen.
