Deadline Options?

I think you gotta make a call about Ryan Tannehill.

There's no way the Titans are gonna wanna go back to him after their rookie had a 4 touchdown game. The future is now for them. Tannehill can be available.

I'm not a huge Tannehill fan but he's definitely an upgrade from Zach Wilson and probably gets us to the playoffs. My concern would be that Joe Douglas waited too long and now you have teams like the Vikings and Giants and Browns also looking for QB help

 

if we get oline we may not need to get tannehill. we may make the playoffs with zach if we can plug some gaps.

 

thats true I havent watched him in 2023. I would find it hard to believe he couldn't put up more than 10 points in regulation in yesterday's game though

 

Yeah flipping a pick or Lawson/Cook for an OL sounds great, but how realistic is it. Who is trading an OL? It's an issue for so many other teams too. Nonetheless, I'm expecting bad news about McGovern and Schweitzer and doubt Tippman is coming back soon, so they really need to start acquiring some interior OL in some way shape or form.

 

We def need to make a trade for two bodies and also another WR would be nice as well

 

I'm probably looking at WRs first and foremost. Having someone besides G. Wilson getting open would be really nice.

Obviously, getting an OL would be nice. I dont know how many legitimate offensive linemen are going to be available.

 

hard to determine which is a bigger need, WR or OL, but they are both needs for sure. Funny how a season goes…mostly due to injuries. Coming into the season OT was more of a concern than IOL, but now after yesterday it’s more likely the other way around…Crazy how many OL injuries we’ve had in the last two years.

WR is also a need, and there may be more options available in trade at WR than at OL, but there are LOTS of teams with OL issues, and with the standings so jumbled up with a bunch of teams in the race still at like 3-4 or 4-3, I’m doubting there will be many good options out there at all.

It’s rough

 

Im hoping JD finds a way …. He has worked magic before regarding trades, FAs. He needs to come through big time now ….

 

While landing a dominant offensive lineman or a quarterback would be a huge accomplishment I do not think we would be able to get one without giving up too much in return.

Assuming neither is available getting a stud at running back, receiver, or safety is where we could do something.

A run stuffing safety or a security blanket for Zach might net us a few more points in each of our remaining games.

 

I hear Kirk Cousins is available.


-----To Soon ?

 

Hopefully, JD can find another "Nate Herbig" somewhere.

 

He also has a bad high ankle sprain and don’t think he s ready anytime soon. He s also on the downhill like you said. Not a good mix.

 

Admittedly I haven't seen him play this year and his numbers look bad, but how can he be worse? Trouble is he has a base salary of 27mm all guaranteed--way to high--Tenn would have to agree to eat much of that.

But if we get good deal, let him rest up 2-3 weeks and get him ready for games 11-17.

 

If they really want to upgrade the roster, I think they have to make a move for a WR.

As a few of you have already said, it's highly doubtful that anyone is willing to trade any OL unless we give up an arm and a leg.

Would be easier for us to get another guy that can create separation and go with more of a short passing attack for a while and hope that guys like Tippman, Brown, & McGovern can come back sooner rather than later.

 

Evans and Adams are not actual options so I'm not including them. Broncos might be out of firesale mode so I'm not including Jeudy or Sutton.

Mooney? Is he even available?
Renfrow? Is he even a fit? He needs to be able to find soft spots and sit, does this O allow for that?

And the biggest issue... do JD, Saleh and Hackett think they need an upgrade or are they doing their classic stubborn "we have the right system and the guys we want in it" and assume that it'll all work out with Gipson in the slot and Brownlee/Taylor as backups?

 

That's where I am at also. WR is a must. Zach needs all the help he can get and we just don't get any separation. Now we can see why the worst qualified WR in NFL Cobb was playing over Gipson. It looks like Taylor did get that key PI, but other than that was invisible. Zach is not going to all of the sudden and become top 10 QB in NFL this season, and he needs all the help he can get. With Lazard at #2 and Cobb/Gipson/Taylor/Brownlee at #3, there is only GW and TEs to go to. Add they usually bracket GW, where it is harder for him to get open.

We need to pray to god GW plays almost every snap AND get at least one more WR that can get open. Without that, there will be a lot more offensive performances like this one. Line is a problem too, if someone decent is available, maybe we can get one also, but I don't know if good lineman will be on trading block, while WR might be. As much as it pains JD to give away some draft capital, wasting this season may be even worse. And I don't think premium picks will be required to get help. Philly just got all Pro Safety for late picks. There has to be a way to get some guys who are less inept than Cobb without giving away the farm.

 

When is Woody selling the team going to be the final option? It's been the BEST option since the day he bought the team - he's definitely in the running for the worst owner in the history of organized sport.
