Six free agents or trade targets to mask Taylor Lewan suspension
By Will Lomas
4. Jermon Bushrod LT
Bushrod isn’t what he once was, but he still was healthy enough to start at left tackle for one of the better offenses in the NFL down the stretch. During his second run with New Orleans the two-time Pro Bowl left tackle was average.
Average may sound bad and to be fair, if you left tackle is average that may cost you a game or two during the season rather than help you.
However. if the Tennessee Titans feel like they just need someone to fill a hole for a few weeks while they let Dennis Kelly play some jumbo TE (or if he supplants Jack Conklin and that is what Conklin does), then average is a solid option.
Beggars can’t be choosers and while the Titans aren’t exactly beggars yet, they need to snatch up someone before all the starting caliber talent is gone and I think that is exaclty what Bushrod could be.
