We should go with what we have and keep our picks. We are playing for the Adrian Peterson Sweepstakes this year. We can not win this year. Why waste picks?
This is from a fantasy football site, but I thought it was still interesting. Tennessee Titans Current News Updates 8/10 According to Nashville Tennessean staffer Jim Wyatt, an agent for Chris Brown visited training camp Wednesday in hopes of pushing the Titans closer to extending the running back's contract or trading him. Wynn Silberman said he planned to meet with GM Floyd Reese, who so far hasn't been willing to discuss an extension or trade. Silberman also left open the possibility that Brown may be advised to leave training camp at some point. Brown, who led the Titans in rushing last season with 851 yards, is in the final year of his contract. He remains the team's top back, although veteran Travis Henry and rookie LenDale White figure to see significant playing time as well this season. "We are trying to be diplomatic about this," Silberman said. "We are trying to act as professionally as we can and work with Floyd and the Titans, and either coming to a conclusion or an extension is a possibility or not. And if it isn't, we want him out of there. That is where we're at. ..." Before anybody panics here, I would suggest that an agent advising his client to leave camp and that person actually doing so are two different things. Brown has said as much -- even going so far as suggesting the agents' tactics are just that -- tactics. Asked specifically if pressure on the Titans will take the form of Brown leaving camp, Silberman said all things are being considered. "We are not in the business of holding kids out. The fact of the matter is he has a contract and he has a job to do. But it is our job to make sure Chris is taken care of,'' Silberman said. "We haven't ruled anything out and we are certainly standing by what we want. ..." The New York Jets and several other teams reportedly have interest in Brown. On Tuesday, Reese said he's not shopping the fourth-year pro.
Titans | Brown wants extension, trade or could walk out Thu, 10 Aug 2006 10:52:20 -0700 Jim Wyatt, of the Tennessean, reports Tennessee Titans RB Chris Brown's agent visited training camp Wednesday, Aug. 9, with hopes of progressing on a contract extension for his client. Thus far, general manager Floyd Reese has not been willing to discuss an extension to Brown's contract or trading him. Wynn Silberman, Brown's agent, noted Brown may be advised to leave training camp at some point. Silberman said if an extension isn't a possibility they want Brown out of Tennessee. Looks like alot of drama happening in Tennessee..including Lendale White getting into fights with some of the defensive players...mostly the safeties. I think Brown will be here sooner than later.
