Titans to sign Tony Pollard


Recommended Posts

I like Pollard but I'm confused why the contract is bigger than every other RB outside of Saquon.  Is Pollard really worth more than Ekeler?  I hate seeing Henry sign for less than we spent on Pollard but I get that our offense is likely moving in a different direction.

He's also two years younger than Ekeler, too. In RB years, that's something.

His stats were way down. I wouldn’t consider him washed yet but the Commanders may not help his case much.

OK, that's not as bad as I thought.  Pollard is a good player and all, but I wasn't super happy about choosing to pay a RB that wasn't Derrick Henry.  Especially on a longer contract for what looked like more money.

Still wish they'd just have kept Derrick or spent the money elsewhere, but I'm not mad about it.

I feel like we have so much money left. I feel like we will get one big bomb drop at some point.

I feel like we ought to have at least one more splash signing.  After that, we've got an entire WR room, LB room, and IDL room to fill out.  Gonna take a lot of signings to get that many players added, especially if they aren't scrubs.  And 2 DLs, 2 WRs, a S, and an LB will take a lot of cash, and then there are vets we may still want to add at CB, TE, or Edge, so that could be it.

I see a lot of people knocking the move because Pollard and Spears have similar skillsets. Call me crazy, but is that a bad thing? They can both play 3 downs, and it makes us way less predictable? Don't really need a power back in today's NFL.

Biggest one would obviously be Sneed, which might be what they're waiting for, and low key I think it'll happen.
