Noooo to Autry. Bring him back on a great 2 year deal.
Zackly’s breath! Breathing fire
Agreed. Our pass rush was notably non existent when he was out.
Bring him back so our pass rush ranks top ten in the league again with Harold coming back.
Autry was our best player on defense last year! Tanney should be on that list
I wasn’t looking at OUR list, I was looking at the interesting names that could be cut from other teams.
Some people on this forum want to give Big Jeff record money and then re-sign anyone that’s good. That’s not how it works. Sorry. You have to choose.
The way I see it we have 25 free agents and another 5-8 guys that will probably be cut. That means Carthon will need to fill at least 20-30 roster spots. That’s massive turnover. Lets say we sign 8-10 drafted players and UDFA, that still means we will need to sign 15-20 veteran players just to fill out this roster. I expect a much more active free agency this year for the Titans than recent years.
We’ll see about that record money. If he’s only as good as you’ve been saying, no way he’s offered that much.
The NFL announced the salary cap for the 2023 season will be set at $224.8 million.
Titans in serous cap trouble even before Big Jeff. JRob really sucked at his job.
After Lewan, Dupree, Woods, Cunningham, etc are cut we will have at least $25mil in cap space. That should be more than enough to sign any free agents we want with backloaded contracts as we have $100 mil in cap space in 2024.
Let’s say we use our two available Post June 1 designations on Dupree and Cunningham. These are some savings we could make:
Dupree: 15.7 mil
Cunningham: 11.1
Lewan: 14.8
Woods: 12.0
Bullock: 2.0
Jemarco: 1.0
Ward: 1.0
Rader: 1.0
Chris Jackson: 1.0
Roos: 1.0
6 other guys make $870,000 and are backup backups (couldn’t even tell you who John Leglue and Mike Brown are lol)
So that’s around $66 million in savings. Less the 23.6 mill we’re over the cap, and that gives us around $42.5 million to update the roster this off-season. Plenty. And that doesn’t even factor in available restructures if needed.

Can't just cut every player to save 800k-1m here and there because someone's going to fill those spots for the same money anyway.
The big contract guys will be the main focus. But easily free up 24-30m with cuts and then there's still a chance to restructure some guys.
Take Chris Jones off the chiefs and the Bengals are playing the Eagles in two weeks. Gotta keep your difference makers.

Also keep big Jeff for this alone lol

I would only restructure the guys that they view are on the team longterm. Tanne adding 2 years to spread his cap out is the only real exception I can see right now.
Salt!
Got ‘em right where we want em
