Tennessee Titans: 5 Players The Titans Should Not Pursue In Free Agency

Brandon Marshall

It would make a lot of sense, in some ways, for the Titans to sign Brandon Marshall.

The 11 year vet is a consistent red zone threat, and one of the better blocking wide receivers in the game.

And he’s only two years removed from one of the best seasons of his career (over 1,500 receiving yards and 14 touchdowns).

But Marshall experienced a serious dip in production last season, catching only 59 passes for 788 yards and three touchdowns.

It was the second time in his career that he followed up a near career year with a lackluster season.

The biggest reason for Marshall’s lack of impressive stats in 2016 was the New York Jets’ poor quarterback play.

However, it’s still concerning that when things start to go south for a team, Marshall doesn’t seem like the type of player that rallies the troops and makes the team better.

I have no doubts that Marshall would love to compete for a Super Bowl, but at the end of the day he seems like a player that puts personal stats above team.

At 32 years old, I’m sure Marshall still has a few quality seasons left.

But he also has the potential to be a colossally poor fit in Nashville. It doesn’t seem smart for the Titans to commit $10 million a year to a player that might not fit with the team’s vision.
