They gambled in hopes to keep BA bc they really like him but as this plays out it might not be possible. Sounds like BA wants to be the highest paid WR in the history of the game. I don't blame them one bit for trying to resign him and holding on as long as possible hoping to get a deal done. Nor do i think they are clowns for doing so.
Titans didnt want to pay anyone and weren't competing so they let AJ Brown go. But you're right the 49ers are the opposite of that mess.
And lets not forget, we still got to pay Trent Williams.
If they like him and had no intentions of trading him (when they should have)…then pay him and move on. They reportedly haven't even had legit contracts conversations for months.
The titans f**ked it up and would have loved to pay Brown after the fact. Instead they invested in a 1st rd WR that's not on the same planet as AJ and they STILL paid a massive contract to a WR that isn't as good as Brown (Ridley).
This stinks like the Buck situation, only they actually got a legit pick in return (and f**ked up that pick) and guess what they ended up still having to pay a DT who's older and worse a ton of $$ in Hargrave
That's the problem with this team they don't learn from their mistakes.
keep burning picks at RB. Trading for pass rushers they have horrible knees (ford/young). Trading younger all-pros in favor of keeping the other player. Tossing spackle on the OL just to watch our QBs get destroyed etc etc.
