The Tennessee Titans Offseason
The Good: Signing Bud Dupree to 5yrs/82.5 Million
The Titans have tried to fix their pass rush through the draft but sadly have come up short in finding talent at the position and grabbing Bud Dupree is a great move for the franchise. Dupree is a premier pass rusher who came into his own over the last couple seasons and should find himself thriving in Tennessee's defense.
The Bad: Letting Jonnu Smith test free agency
Jonnu Smith is one of the better tight ends in the NFL and a playmaker after the catch and for the Titans to let him walk in free agency is going to cost them dearly on offense. Tennessee is a running team who rely on Ryan Tannehill to manage games but Smith was his #1 target when it came to making plays in the red zone and his absence is going to be felt in 2021.
The Ugly: Losing Adoree Jackson
Adoree Jackson was a great slot corner for them and although he got overpaid in free agency, his absence is going to be felt in the middle of the secondary. The Titans secondary is aging every year and letting go over young talent is something the Titans couldn't afford to do in 2021. Unless they can find talent in the draft, they are going to have trouble stopping teams on 3rd N short and getting his replacement should come within the first two days of the draft.
