Breaking down a potential Jadeveon Clowney trade to Tennessee Titans
By Will Lomas
What it would take for the Tennessee Titans to land Jadeveon Clowney.
Every fan base in the NFL is discussing whether or not their team will trade for Houston Texans EDGE Jadeveon Clowney, so let’s talk about a potential Tennessee Titans trade.
First of all, what was a rumor yesterday is now almost a given fact thanks to the reporting of John McClain:
The same man also relayed the information that the team thought to be in the driver’s seat here (Miami Dolphins) is out on Clowney.
Alright so that just leaves 30 other teams right? Well, kinda. These are the teams that are paying an EDGE rusher $10 million or more next year which probably means that they won’t be able to give Jadeveon Clowney the deal he wants.
-Chicago Bears
-Dallas Cowboys
-Kansas City Chiefs
-Denver Broncos
-Detroit Lions
-New Orleans Saints
-Cleveland Browns
-San Francisco 49ers

-Jacksonville Jaguars
-Tampa Bay Buccaneers
-Minnesota Vikings
-Cincinnati Bengals
-Philadelphia Eagles
-Washington Redskins
-Buffalo Bills
So that is 18 more teams that are committed to paying an EDGE $10+ million next year. Some of those teams like the Bills, Buccaneers and Cardinals are weak enough at the position and are either ready to reset at QB or they have a cheap QB for the next few years, so they could also make the move.
For the sake of this argument let’s just say that the Tennessee Titans are one of about a dozen teams that aren’t over extended on cap paid to EDGE and won’t have to pay one until at least 2022.
Also, if you don’t think there is any chance that the Titans will make a trade with the Texans then just stop reading this. What in the world could I say that would change your mind, so don’t work yourself up reading an article that is more of a “what if” scenario than actual projection of what will happen?
So, let’s get into whether or not this trade could happen.
