The problem is you can't depend on Lewan to be your primary LT. He has missed more than half of the season 2 of the last 3 years and hasn't played more than 13 games since 2018. Not to mention his performance has diminished substantially. If he's willing to be a rotational piece for near vet minimum, I'm all for it. But he can't be our starting LT week 1 if we expect to compete next year. And I don't imagine he would come back for that little.
Wait til the magical combine. Names never mentioned before will be hyped to new levels.
By the time Kiper Mock Draft 37.3 is released, the first round will have like 6 QBs.
Doesn’t make any of it right.
I suppose the argument can be made that with the new OL coach and OC, NPF, Radunz, or Levin can be saved into starter material.
Big problem with that is it’s a gamble bypassing F.A. market and draft to find out.
Not a Chance
A rookie OL will likely not have any immediate impact on our team. They almost always require a year or two to develop. If we want to retool instead of rebuild and be a contender next year, free agency and trades are the best way to build an effective OL. Like the Bengals did last year. A first round WR can have a much larger immediate impact.
Radunz tore his ACL in December.... he will not be anywhere near ready to play. Titans have to hit FA and draft in a big way to fix OL
My number one guy. Really like him as day one starter at left guard
True, but if there’s any thought he may be a starter caliber after returning, it would change the draft approach and likely mean a T that may not be top F.A. but journeyman worthy.
You mean like Treylon Burks?

He did at least show flashes of being a good WR.
Needs to get healthy and also need a OC that uses WR/TE for more than blocking. I'm more excited about Chig than Burks tbh
I feel like the offense would be MUCH better with just a decent OLine and play calling. Henry, Burks, Chig can all be playmakers. Even NWI would be decent if used correctly. I don't think it would be worst in the league with the right OC, even with what they have now.
Oh, I agree! I like Burks. He might of had a better year if the line could hold up to a breeze.
Exactly. Imagine how many plays went bust due to OL whiffs? Not only did it cost plays, it knocked Tanny out of games. Just a decent OL changes everything in the second half of the season.
Lewan is dead to me
Firing the oline coach was the first step to getting better. Coaching there has been bad for a long time. No player development and actual regression
Agreed
When Munch was OLine coach, he could coach up any scrub into a serviceable lineman. We must hire a good OLine coach
For whatever reason, the Titans treat Munch like he's kryptonite since they canned him as HC.
I’m curious if it’s the other way around but maybe AAS is also not temping herself to re-hire him after whatever the next coach is leaves.
