Titans extend Derrick Henry - 4 years $50M

[HammerDown]

At least they have hope...the Browns haven't had hope in 30+ years

 

[LetsGoPats]

He deserves it. He was playing like a man among boys.

Report: Titans, Derrick Henry agree to 4-year, $50 million extension

Looks to be $25.5M guaranteed

Smart man...quite trying to break the bank...get paid...handsomely!

Cuttable after 2 season, in that time, he would pocket 25M. 12.5Mper sounds like a good team deal. At least he didn't reset the RB market.

25.5 to be exact.

The Titans have now locked in Ryan Tannehill ($91M) & Derrick Henry ($25.5M) to over $116M of guaranteed money this offseason. All-in on the 2019 offense,

I don't mind paying Henry. He's a beast. The price is fair (roughly 12.5 per year) and as we've seen with other RBs, you can get out from under it. I think he'll continue to be a beast for the next couple of years. In fact, I could easily see this just being a 2 year deal and he's cut or restructured once the guaranteed money is paid out. So 2 years, 25 mil. That seems fair given his production

However, I HATE that Tannehill contract. Never should have paid him. They should have done this in reverse; sign Henry but franchise tag Tannehill (but not give him a new deal). Make him play on the tag to prove it one more year. I'll be shocked if Tannehill plays as well as his numbers indicated again. I expect him to fall back to being hohum. And that contract he has is vastly overpaid for a hohum QB. I would have rather them let Tannehill walk into FA than doing what they did.

Sure, he was the best RB for a 6 game stretch. If he can maintain that but he has always been inconsistent, getting more carries helps but they essentially gave him this money bc of a 6 game stretch.

Tannehill for the 10 games he played.

It sounds like a team that will consistently be a playoff team or borderline playoff team that will never get over the hump.

Did Christian McCafrey die?

he did. but also, consider the source

flacco established himself as the best qb in the league with a 4 game stretch, remember?

I will never support paying a RB that kinda money. I definitely cannot support it for one who is not a 3 down back......and who has disappeared for times.....

Cringe.

Congrats to Derrick Henry on rushing for over 2 thousand yards this season.

Still will not support it. Regardless kudos for digging one up. One for you. 12415 wrong predictions and flip flops, also for you.

Ridiculous to not support it. They didn't give him anywhere near the biggest RB contract. It was a huge steal for the Titans. Especially since he takes his already great level of play to a truly elite level of play towards the end of the season into the post season. He's the best RB in the NFL. A dominant force reminiscent of prime Adrian Peterson.

He’s still not the best RB in the NFL

What other RB would you prefer to have heading into these playoffs?

Makes the 6th most of any RB in the NFL this season. Put forth one of the most dominant post seasons for a RB that we have seen last year. This year has become just the 8th RB to rush for over 2,000 yards in a season and he has also now for two straight seasons lead the league in rushing and rushing touchdowns.


And the Titans signed him to a deal that doesn't even come close to sniffing the highest paying RB contracts that the market has already given out.

Alvin Kamara, an uninjured McCafrey. Obviously Henry is really good, he’s just not as good in the passing game which is this day you need to be

Alvin Kamara is good but he isn't as great and dominant as Derrick Henry. Henry was unstoppable last season and willed his team to the AFC Title Game last season in a run of upsets. Kamara has played on great Saints teams his whole NFL career and has never come close to making the impact in any playoff game that Henry did last season. You talk like you can't win with Henry's style yet his style got the Titans to the AFC Title Game and up in that game on the road against a dynasty in the making.


If Alvin Karama plays for the Saints next week it is more likely than anything else that he will not have the same impact as Henry will have for the Titans playoff game.

It’s fine if you think Henry is the best, I just disagree

 

[SteelersPride]

I prefer running backs who can’t get phased out of the game script, in today’s game.

And that’s pretty much exactly what they are lol.

It seems like they have problems with their defense and Clowney was a huge mistake. They have bigger issues

 

[Dude]

That’s an INT from the shot they showed.
