    Titans trading for Demarco Murray

    ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Eagles are "finalizing" a trade that will send DeMarco Murray to the Titans when the NFL's new league year opens on Wednesday afternoon.

    NFL observers should be impressed with Eagles GM Howie Roseman, who in a matter of a few days will be unloading a big chunk of dead salary, and three players who were almost entirely ineffective in 2015. Kiko Alonso and Byron Maxwell are also headed out the door. Murray averaged 3.64 yards per carry last season, and his legs have appeared dead since the end of the 2014 campaign in Dallas, where Murray amassed nearly 500 all-purpose touches. In theory, Murray will give the Titans a bellcow back and provide an upgrade on Antonio Andrews. Like Murray, however, Andrews also finished last season with a 3.64 YPC average. Murray, of course, is far more skilled in the passing game.

    Why would anyone want this guy? He was just a byproduct of a huge offensive line that TTwarrior could've gotten 1000 yards behind.

    Titans have spent numerous top picks along their OL, yet they're still a terrible unit. not sure whether Murray thinks this will be a better destination for him. of course Kelly used him incorrectly in Philly, but that could've easily been rectified under their new staff.

    Which makes the Sam Bradford deal even more confusing. Why waste money on him at this point??

    I see Opie already in mid season form . Obviously dumping salaries (see miami trade) for cap space for this season.

    What were the options other than Bradford. It was genius they only signed him for 2 years. Is Cousins worth 20 mil a year

    Hope the Texans play the Titans in Nashville late in the season like they did last year. This trade practically guarantees another lousy Titans season, and I'll get the tickets practically for free.

    It's an upgrade for Titans. They have no one to carry the ball. This makes Titans a contender now.
