On March 9th, the Tennessee Titans wasted no time in free agency, leading the pack with nearly $90 million in salary cap space before. Spending big. Their top move came early in the legal tampering period, signing defensive tackle John Franklin Myers to a three-year contract worth $63 million with $42 million guaranteed. That averages out to $21 million per year. They also grabbed wire receiver, Wandel Robinson, Cornerback Coredale Flot, and Cornerback Alente Taylor, boking up both sides of the ball right. Away. General manager Mike Burganzi showed he's not afraid to pay a front, especially for familiar faces. New head coach Robert Salah and defensive line coach Aaron Wycotton worked with Franklin Myers during their Jets days, so reuniting makes perfect. Since, fans are buzzing about pairing him with star Jeffrey Simmons of front, which should pressure quarterbacks all season in the AFC South. The cap hit his steep alongside Simmons' deal, but it's smart value.

Franklin Myers ranks as the 15th highest paid at his position while playing, like a top 10 talent. Tennessee still holds seven draft picks, including three in the top 70, plus plenty of young pieces ready to contribute. With these additions, the Titans look prime for a quick turnaround, blending vets and prospects without breaking the bank entirely.
