2018 Free Agency

You guys already have a terrific defense IMO.
Not really. Numbers don't tell the whole story. Pass rush has been up and downI, run D hasn't been up to the usual standards. It's a good defense, just not terrific yet. Optimistic for second year players though.
 
Tennessee Titans signing former Pats CB Malcolm Butler per Schefter.

the numbers on this contract are outrageous
5 years 61m (30 m guaranteed) - 12.2m/yr

this is for a player who seemed toxic and was never trusted to go vs opposing teams' top receivers
 
Kinda hard to be anything but underwhelmed by the moves or lack thereof so far in FA. We signed Hurst and potentially Jon “Boo Boo” Brown, a good player but an injury rap sheet as long as anyone’s. Yeah, he’ll be a Raven because of the injuries alone. He’s a good piece to be fair, but he’s a single piece. We need a tall WR threat as well because this draft isn’t exceptionally strong in those big bodied guys. I know he’s a favorite of Winchester but I wouldn’t mind bringing in Bruce Butler for his size combo alone. I wouldn’t mind Nelson either but even then you still need 4 WR on this team. Nobody should hope Perriman makes the team but he should be already considered off this team until he makes a case to make it.

You guys pitched 4 shutouts though last year. Yeah though its probably nothing like the 2000 defense.
 
it doesnt matter who we draft...we're not going to be a competitive team next year. The fans would appreciate a new signal caller and a real sign of a proper rebuild.

wasiting time on crap WR's in FA who are pretty much average at best at this point means nothing

oh btw..Joe flacco.. FUCK YOU. Hasn't even tried to help the team out with a paycut of any nature even though he ABSOLULTEY HAS SUCKED and has just stolen from us for half a decade

name 1 qb who's taken a paycut in the entire time joe's been in the league...

*bitches and moans that Flacco doesn't take a paycut*

*paycuts don't ever happen for QB*

*long term extension from Flacco would be the only one that actually cripples the cap going forward*

He stinks up the joint this season we're moving forward without him and then we can be major players in FA anyway.

Spoken almost like somebody who has a stake in the Titans future lol To Butler's defense about facing the top receivers, both he and Stephon Gilmore shadowed receivers based on the match ups. Most notably this season, Butler shadowed DeSean Jackson, Robby Anderson (2x), Emmanuel Sanders, Amari Cooper and Antonio Brown.
