Looks like Julio is going to the Titans

[Chromeburn]

Jones has been pretty healthy throughout his career. Not sure where this always injured narrative is coming from.

He’s played an entire season (16 games) - 3 times out of his career, played the least amount of games in his career for a season last year and has 13 injuries to his right foot alone

That's a bit misleading. By that measurement, TY has only played four 16 game seasons.

He's played less than 13 games only twice. Last year and 2013. We have plenty of guys sit out a game or two at the end of the season to rest and heal up.

What we should be noticing is that he has burned us every time he has played us.

With respect, TY has been injured/hurt more than he's been healthy the last four years (Luck's last year, he played a lot of games, but remember that he hardly ever practiced because he was dinged up so bad). So your comparison is apt. Jones is trending toward injury, and the most recent seasons are probably the best predictor of what will happen moving forward.

TY has been trending lately, but my point is over his whole career? Jones last five seasons is 9, 15, 16, 16, 14, 16. That’s not a trend of injury. I think you guys just want to label it a bad deal or Andre Johnson 2.0. Not every vet is Andre Johnson. Guy is a first ballot hall of famer. Maybe it’s just he is a NFC player, but the guy is very good and a physical freak, even at 32. Rock is going to be matched up with Julio and I do not like that matchup at all. Assuming he wins the starting job.

Why would you put your worst cb on him? Rhodes has played him well in the past. And I'm hoping that Tell wins the starting cb job over Rock.

Coverage isn’t set in stone. They will move their guys around and we will move ours. But Julio may not come in as the number one receiver, but the number two behind AJ Brown. That could change. But I would want my best outside corner on their number 1 receiver which I think is Brown now. Who also has more familiarity and experience with Tannehill.

Here is a video with salary cap breakdown of the Titans, with commentary added about the Jones trade. He is the same guy Lawrence Owen had on to discuss our salary cap.

Flus will play almost entirely cover-2 or cover-3 vs the Tits. It keeps you from getting beat deep and too have your DB's facing the LOS to help vs the run.

The onus will be on safeties, not so much Roc or Xavier.

Maybe on obvious passing downs. What are you going to do on 2nd and 4? That’s the problem with a Derrick Henry lead offense.
