I really like this signing for the Titans. Calvin Ridley does a good job with route running to create seperation which is what Titans have struggled with Burks and NWI. Ridley can work out of the slot or Z WR, with D-Hop or Burks at the X. In 3 WR sets, Ridley is an awesome target on intermediate routes to move the chains. Also Ridley can be used in stacks with D-Hop to allow D-Hop to face less press or sit down in the soft spot of zone. Also Burks now can be the 3rd option or face up on the nickel to get more chances on underneath crossing routes, slants and utilise him for YAC which is what he excelled in college.
All these new roster changes to NFL teams. Its starting to look like create a team in real life. The 2024 NFL season is going to be interesting to say the least.
@JYoung-fl8fc The last jersey I bought was a custom jersey. Previously I bought a D. Ware jersey and he went to the Broncos. Nothing more annoying than getting a jersey only for that player to go another team next season.
@@mikegustafson58he's widely considered one of the greatest OLine coaches of all time. If I'm a first time head coach, and that's my dad. I'm letting him take his pick in the draft lol
$25M a year (AJ Brown AAV) in 2022 was 12% of the 208.2M cap $23M a year in 2024 (Ridley AAV) is 9% of the cap. Brown’s contract in 2022 would be equivalent to a $30.6M AAV contract in 2024 accounting for cap inflation. It’s also a totally new regime, we get it, AJ shouldn’t have been traded, but the contract values are not equivalent.
Except the percentage of the cap is not based on AAV. It is based on the structure of contract and according to sport trac the eagles used only 2.5 % of their cap on aj brown in 2022 and 2023. It will be nearly 5% this yr in yr 3. I agree shouldnt have traded him or pick a better wr than burks to replace him
100K LETSS GOO tbh i hate that everyone knows bc goddd damn what good you guys are fuck 100%%% amazing. but seriously stop growing i need my league mates maximum stoopid
Deandre Hopkins put up a 1000+ yard season a scrub team w no other wrs, the weakest o line in the league, and a 3-QB carousel throughout all last year. No other wr would've put up better numbers in that situation. He's still arguably a top 5 wr, inarguably a top 10. The hell you mean he lost some juice? lol, yall don't know what you're talking about.
The money for Ridley is big but you gotta remember due to the Jon Robinson failed drafts they have almost nobody they have to pay for the next few years. Maybe Mcreary and then Levis. But otherwise this is money the Titans can burn if they want to. Best way to evaluate Levis
Tenness looking to pass more. It’s a lot for that dude. But if they got the cash, he should be productive. I don’t think many r expecting him to be all world anymore I predict 75 catches 6 tds 900
@@chevy4x466that's about right wouldn't surprise me if both hop and him get 1000 each and 6-8 TDs. I could honestly see both spears and Pollard getting 1000 total each.

@@harvey9508 we are barely after day one of free agency so there is still plenty of time. Not seeing a starter on the FA market fitting the rebuild timeline of the Titans I think it will be addressed in the draft in round one or 2
I have a feeling this is Eddie George all over again. The same thing happened with George. George left Jags and went to the Titans. The Jags went nearly undefeated except to 2 losses to, you guessed it, the freaking Tennessee Titans. Both times because of clutch plays by Eddie freaking George. The 2nd Loss was the AFC Championship. I pray history isn't repeating itself.
@@zextii_ he had 2 years to “step up” when he was suspended and he was mediocre on the jags. He’s not a no.1 wr probably a low 2. At 29 years old he is what he is at this point.
Yes it’s slightly high on Ridley contract. But the titans were bad last year so just like cushenberry they had to pay the we suck tax and make it worth coming here for the player.
Trade Burks and a 4th or 5th for Sneed. Draft Bowers at 7 and a slot WR in the 2nd. Motion Bowers to the backfield as an Alstott for short yardage scenarios 😉
If Brock bowers is sitting there at pick 7 I can’t see a world where ran and cali don’t pick a generational talent like him. LT is a need yes but you gotta take a once in a lifetime TE prospect that could be the next Kelcey
So we have another off the ball guy? Obviously, Burks in the slot makes sense but he might be better off, fot the team, being the X. . I'm sure the HC will figure it out and I expect more from Burks. Not sure why it makes any difference what GM and HC were there when Burks was drafted. Coaches job is to get the most out of what players they have. Oh, Nabors is a burner but he also isn't5 a good press coverage guy. So he was used in the slot in college.
That's exactly what Nabers would bring to the Titans a slot WR with speed to separate and threaten at all 3 levels. Offense would be explosive and make the change to a pass orientated offense. Titans would then take LT in the 2nd round (Suamataia, Morgan, Paul or less likely Guyton) However, we all know that more likely scenario is that they will take LT Alt, Fuaga or Fashanu in first round. Then look at CB/Edge 2nd round. Missing on the top ties of WR class they could look at WR Malik Washington or Jacob Cowing in the 4th round.
key comment is all three levels. Hopkins threatens at all three levels and isn't blazing fast. Route running and not being a slot only is what we need.@@chopsnz88
"Assuming Will Levis is capable as a passer" The guy threw 4 TDs in his rookie debut including 3 long bomb dots against a Falcons defense people believe is good enough to make them playoff contenders. What more do you want before you acknowledge the guy can throw?
they traded a 7th round pick for another backup to the qb who played banged up for several games and cost the jags the playoffs last season (imo). no one in jacksonville really thought ridley was going to still be there because they tagged josh allen instead, and would rather give up a 3rd for ridley than a 2nd round pick. definitely (obvs) wasn't one or the other.
@@Fakewhack-st8fl back then top receivers weren't getting as much and the Titans were too lazy to work cap magic...push the salary back, so that when the cap increased like it did this season, they could have been ahead of the game.
@@Fakewhack-st8fl he's still in his rookie contract. He's getting less than $2 million for 2024. He wasn't hurting the Titans' cap. At the time they thought it was ridiculous to pay $20 million for a WR when they had a prime Derrick Henry. They changed their tune since.
Calvin Ridley was underwhelming with the jags last year. Now with will Levis as a his quarterback I don’t see how he will take some giant leap with someone like levis as his quarterback
Tennessee needs alot of help and unfortunately they are probably going to need a QB in the near future. I'm sorry 4 td's in the last seven games is very poor even for a rookie.
Have patience. Levis needs minimum 3 years to develop on the job, most all pro QBs need that time to develop (exception Stroud). Offensive Line was terrible last year and Levis did his best under pressure in his rookie season. He has a powerful arm reminds me of a Brett Favre who is a high risk/reward type thrower that needs to work on decision making, post-snap reading defense coverages and understanding where to attack the field. Shoulf also benefit of having Pollard and Spears as checkdowns.

Jaguars passing game coordinator is the titans oc and callihans childhood friend. Makes too much sense
Brian Callahan also hired his dad Bill Callahan to coach the O-line. Titans line will be better. Coaching DOES make a change.
