Tennessee Titans Pro Bowl DT Jurrell Casey traded to Denver Broncos
By Will Lomas
Big news as the Tennessee Titans trade Jurrell Casey.
Sometimes the business of football hurts and a lot of Tennessee Titans fans felt that today as the team traded Jurrell Casey to the Denver Broncos.
Now, the move is for a 7th round pick which really bumped some people because they thought that he would be worth at least a top-100 pick.
The problem is that most people think of Jurrell Casey as the underrated superstar who is a disruptive force on the DL. That really wasn’t the case last year and we saw the Tennessee Titans struggle to get interior pressure outside of a rare glimpse from Daquan Jones or Casey, unless they let Jeffery Simmons rush in which case you could see a pocket collapse.
What you are getting with Jurrell Casey is a leader in the locker room and one of the most well rounded humans in the game today. He is intelligent and lives his life deliberately in everything from his diet to his work ethic.
So, I want to take a look at:
-Why the Titans made this move
-Why the Broncos made this move
-What each side can expect to come from this.
Let’s start with what the Tennessee Titans have to gain from this and what they must be thinking.
