BuffaloRebound Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Geez. Wouldn’t it have been better for Titans to just keep him on the roster than take a $5m cap hit trading him for a swap of 7th round picks? It’s not like Tennessee has a lot of cap room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they overpaid. Per OTC anyway, guy has guaranteed salary for the next 3 years. $4.5M worth. 11 minutes ago, BuffaloRebound said: Geez.

I think they save money by trading him over cutting him. $5M-ish saved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyBillsFan Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 You guys are missing the big picture here. This is an obvious attempt to convince DeShawn Watson to lobby for a trade to Miami. By bolstering their O-line in this way, how can Watson say no to the Dolphins? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Bizarre trade all around. Miami is stuck with paying $4.5m of Wilson’s guaranteed salary over the next 3 years. Titans are off the hook for that $4.5m but take an extra cap hit of $1.85m this year by trading him because of dead cap from his signing bonus. Titans now have only $8m in cap space.

H2o Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 It's an extremely low risk deal for the Dolphins and they have plenty of cap space to take a swing on him. I'm glad it was at the Titans' expense too. Couldn't happen to a better HC and organization, trading your 1st Round pick the following year for a 7th. Hopefully he goes awol in Miami too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Flores want to the same HS as Wilson. There’s somewhat of a connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I liked him coming out. For a swap of 7ths it is worth a swing. If he can't be salvaged moving back 20 spots in round 7 doesn't kill anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titans are off the hook for that $4.5m but take an extra cap hit of $1.85m this year by trading him because of dead cap from his signing bonus. Titans now have only $8m in cap space. The guaranteed money is spread out over three years, according to Spotrac. $1.135,836, his 2021 salary, $1,661,672 his 2022 salary, and $1.09 of his 2023 salary. That won't be too onerous for the Fins. Even though it's Miami, it sounds like this guy is having issues. Depression, maybe, or some mental issues. And if so, they're taking a flier on him working his way thought that. I think the coach picked his words carefully when he said the guy who we got in Nashville was a different guy than the one we interviewed. So, was he lying at his interviews, and he's just a lazy duplicitious person? If so, Miami doesn't lose too much. Or does he have something that could maybe be helped with professional intervention and maybe some medication or therapy or whatever? No way to know, but IMO worth a shot for Miami.
