There's always a chance. Should we just never pay anyone then?66mil, I'd say there's a chance
Bullock for sure.CJ2K? Lewan? Bullock?
CJ2K was great but oddly can get overlooked by other team RB Henry (I know he was a 2nd) and EG27 (actually an Oiler selection)
Lewan is easily a step down from those top names.
Haynesworth really had 2 seasons. His monster year earned his paycheck but he also quit right then and there, glad it wasn’t on the titans.I'm glad we got Simmons locked in.
Bullock and Haynesworth were good first round picks as well
I'm simply pointing out the hyperbole of using freak of nature. Please define for me your definition. You can throw out all the stats and chit you want to.This statement isn't grounded in facts. He's like top 6 among DT's in sacks the last 2 years, while also being one of the best run stopping DTs.
Also here's a ranking from PFN:
Best Defensive Tackles in the NFL 2023: Jeffery Simmons, Quinnen Williams, and Dexter Lawrence Battle Atop Rankings
A 300+ pound human should not be able to move like Simmons does. I think you could argue the majority of the NFL are freaks of nature before the opposite tbh.I'm simply pointing out the hyperbole of using freak of nature. Please define for me your definition.

I would define a freak of nature as him doing something no one else can do. If he is doing what a lot of other players are doing then he is not a freak of nature. Again, that's based off what I think a freak of nature is as a NFL player. They are the rarest of the rare. He is not that.A 300+ pound human should not be able to move like Simmons does.

Javon Kearse is the closest thing to a freak of nature the Titans have ever had.
He could hold a ruler between his thumb and pinky. That's ridiculous.I would define a freak of nature as him doing something no one else can do.

That comes from the Outlaw Josey WalesDoes that come from an inability to afford adequate shelter?
TL77 was good while on the magic juiceBullock for sure.

I can do that ...He could hold a ruler between his thumb and pinky. That's ridiculous.
Best DT I’ve ever watched during that contract year. Was in the backfield every play it seemed. Wish Simmons could do that, then I would agree he’s worth it.Haynesworth really had 2 seasons. His monster year earned his paycheck but he also quit right then and there, glad it wasn’t on the titans.
My thoughts exactly
Well that’s an extreme, extreme version of what people think of him.
My thoughts exactly
Not only does no one think he’s going to be a sack king, but the idea of any safeties is ridiculous.
he’s really good, run stuffer, he draws double teams regularly, he helped Landry get 15 sacks 2 years ago and the hope is he can help that some more.
Simmons is among the best DT in the league. There is no one replacing him which includes any up coming draft picks.
Absolutely worth the money.
One of my favorite songs ever. I would play this pregame and Haynesworth would always ball out. Handsworth AKA Haynesworth. I need to find a song for Simmons.
Ay, Haynesworth and Erron Kinney had the best looking girlfriend/fiance/wife I've seen out of the Titans players.
Yeah, zero people acting like that.. maybe on FB or Tweeter... But not in the real world.
My thoughts exactly
Just happy to resign a good player. He helps the defense tremendously. Titans will have a lot of cap space after this season...why not spend some money on good players? What alternative method is there to building a team? Keep throwing darts and hope you can get cheap players that play well?
I dont expect stats from a DT, I expect them to draw double teams and cause the kind of havoc that allows the faster players to get around and get the stats.
Exactly. Hopefully we go back to alot more safety blitzes and creates opening for our OLBs.I dont expect stats from a DT, I expect them to draw double teams and cause the kind of havoc that allows the faster players to get around and get the stats.
