Alaskan Grizzly Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 So, I understand that Tennessee is in a bad position these days but why would they specifically come out and say they are 'targeting Cutler'? I'm not sure why but I don't like it. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200000029...ennessee-titans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlithuanian Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Heard it this morning too. Must be the Vandy connection. They need a QB, and if we jetison him...why not? I just hope we don't jetison him! So, I understand that Tennessee is in a bad position these days but why would they specifically come out and say they are 'targeting Cutler'? I'm not sure why but I don't like it. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200000029...ennessee-titans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think maybe this was a manger generated rumor. Same agent as Brett Farve and was similar tactics he used with Brett. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scs787 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 If they wanna let him walk then they better franchise him, and trade him...Should be able to get a 2nd rounder out of Tennessee or some other team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ54 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 It is inevitable. Bad teams need to find good players and Cutler, at least as a short term fix at QB is a pretty good option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackerDog Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I think it's called tampering when one team talks about another team's player while he's under contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrackerDog Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Fixed I don't think so dude. I don't think a team is allowed to say "We're going to be going after Player X hard in the off season." I could be wrong but let's face it, there's nothing in the article to suggest Tennessee really said anything. This is probably just the opinion of the writer.

I think if we tendered him, the salary would command a 1st round pick in return if Tenn signed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Cutler is going to cost $14+ million with zero cap relief, or we can go McCown with a rookie QB to groom for 1/4 of that plus re-sign some key players or bring in an impact FA. After tonight's game, it is going to be hard for management to invest in Cutler with other holes to fill when it is clear that McCown can come in and play at a high level in this offense. McCown's QBR is 2nd only to Peyton Manning this year, and not by much. You would think with the ridiculous year Manning is having that no one would be close, but McCown is right there after tonight. Also, as someone mentioned before, the wear and tear on Cutler's body has to be taken into consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW - I have friends in Nashville who often see Cutler during the offseason. So there is no doubt he either calls that place home or likes to hang out there.

I just can't see us letting him walk but I've become sick of beating this story to death Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
