Is there a chance that he is actually a bigger distraction for us fans than anyone inside the building?
Chances are the rest of the squad/coaches hardly know the kid, as he hasnt ever really been around...
Its Jrobs headache for sure, but I can see this not having much impact on the football side.
Undrafted rookie Aaron Brewer has played 152 snaps, across 11 games. Represents around 15% of our offensive snaps through the regular season. Filled in for Jones in 1 game, and then Saffold at Guard across 2-3 other games for part of the game.
Has anyone seen his play and thought 'my god this kid is awful'? I sure havent. When you dont hear an Olinemans name, thats often a good thing. The only play i can recall is that BS hold call the other day.
Let all this sink in when you think about Wilson. Maybe there is a silver lining here? We got the production we probably expected from Wilson in year 1, but from an undrafted rookie!?

OOoh, such a tough guy arent ya...
Prove that he never had a coach or a program cover up for his numbskull actions or you stay the hell out of the conversation.
Sure, that is possible and maybe even likely. But I am not just talking about this season, I am talking about as for long as he is here.
I had no idea how much our fans loved WIlson, some of you sure are getting butt hurt over him..
Quite a contrast between Wilson and David Quessenberry who was a 6th rd pick in 2013. Cut by the Texans and survived cancer. Now he is getting a chance to play and is doing ok.
He's back on track studying film, he's pumped for the boys being in the playoffs. He's gonna go down as the Jamarcus Russell of Tackles at this rate.
Kid is lost . Forget football , just need to pray that he doesn’t destroy himself as a human being. All of this is mostly fear and self hatred in my opinion and it’s extremely common and unfortunate.
It is remarkable the only thing we saw of this guy was him getting trucked on his azz. I mean you couldn’t script any greater disaster story. Scouting department going to have a vacancy for sure. I wonder which guy scouted Wilson and promoted the idea to JRob?
No .. not a tough guy nor trying to be. I don’t have to disprove your assertions. You think he had a past and that someone covered it up, YOU PROVE IT! I have researched the internet and there was nothing. These Billion dollar businesses do their research.
I need to prove someone never covered up for him? I need to prove their wasn’t a cover up? How completely juvenile is that? Nice try dude. Well.. not really. Kinda weak. Actually very weak.
I think his physical size makes him a huge distraction but because of his limited interactions with team, I really don't think he's been much of a distraction.
I would love to see him succeed. Titans could use a huge offensive tackle. But so far, we could not imagine a worse first year in the pros.
I agree on many levels. First, hate to see a young guy just throw his life away, second, hate to see us throw a first rounder away, and finally, that big dude could have really helped down the stretch if had applied himself.
On a personal level, I hope he gets his crap together, with football or without.
On a professional level, I'm not sure he wants to play, which leaves the team in a tough spot

I think the virtual draft procces hurt us alot with this one.
I bet you that if Vrabel and Jrob saw him in person in a workout they would of have stay away.

Problem is, cutting our losses is $6.5m more expensive than just telling him to stay home and collect a pay check.

I have no idea with the current agreement what the Titans can do to get Panda in line. I know they can fine him for missing meetings, camps, etc. but not for partying.
Goodell can fine/suspend for "tarnishing the shield" but if he did that for every player filmed at a strip club, half the NFL would be suspended.
Looking at the cap hit the Titans will have if they release Panda, it makes more sense to reach out to his "people" who influence him. His family and agent should be able to explain how much he's leaving on the table in 4 or 5 years for the decisions he's making now.
JRob needs to offer to get him a psychologist, trainers, etc. after this season if he's willing to get himself right. If he's unwilling to improve himself, I keep him instead of releasing him just to ruin any future NFL career he might have.

I really think the ship has sailed on this kid. I think his getting trucked on that ST play reinforced his belief he can’t cut it in the big leagues. He’s turtling like Dodd and other guys. He was a mental midget to begin, now there’s just no way to convince him to believe in something unseen. Should’ve been pick up on before we invested in him. Some scout needs to be served up the way Lake Dawson was after the Dodd failure.
I agree who ever was pushing for this guy should be gone!
You might be right. Maybe getting put on his ass during that field goal killed any self confidence he may have had. Still need to keep the kid around for cap purposes.
With the money already on the line, the Titans need to do everything they can to help this kid succeed. Ultimately, he has to want it and do it. So far, all indications are that he is a failure. I think they have to give him another year but again, he has to want to put in the work or we have seen his high point in the NFL.
