Wis and Barks to sign with the Titans?

[TEB11]

Wis has already visited and Barks is visiting today. Wouldn't that be ironic that the two players who could significantly improve our OL if signed and allow us to upgrade on offense in the upcoming draft could sign with Jeff Fisher's old team?

not allowed*

Barksdale left the Titans without a deal. He'd better be careful or may end up on the outside looking in. Here's the link.

Truthfully, at this point it might be worth his while to wait until after the draft to sign. Why not wait for a team(like the Rams or Titans)who maybe don't get the guy or guys they wanted in the draft? Would certainly make his services more valuable...

Barksdale is beginning to annoy me!

 

[Retroram52]

Yea. Barksdale wants the big bucks. Unfortunately others including the Rams do not see it that way. He could price himself out of the market if he is not careful. It has happened many times before to many players league-wide.

Or, the teams that need a RT will fill that need in the draft and he'll be left waiting for an injury, or have to settle for backup money.

There's no way that every team needing a starting caliber o-lineman/quality depth guy gets one in the draft, that's just not realistic. He'll find a job, someone will pay him more money than any of us think he's worth. Just the way it works in today's NFL...

 

[shopson67]

He's not aiming for "quality depth guy" money though. He wants upper tier starting right tackle money (reportedly). He's better off signing now IMO.

Well then he's delusional lol. There's no way he gets top tier money. Not sure how he even thinks he can demand that. He'll wake up to reality soon enough...

 

[Battlelyon]

Wis signed with the Jags

 

[Retroram52]

Yep, saw that Snake eyes. Barksdale is going to be left out in the cold he fools around too much longer.

Wis signed with the Jags

1yr 2.5 million

Must be either a health issue or Fisher thinks Jones is ready to go.

 

[Clayton]

Like 5 teams were in play for Wis and thats what he got? Something must be wrong with him

 

[Retroram52]

We are better off with Barnes and Jones and a draft selection.

[RamCub]

Agree!

Yeah he has had two surgeries for a torn labrum now.

 

[27mtrcougar]

I'm wondering if they will sign Wells back for the vet min if he's healthy.
