Kazkal Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 http://www.sportingnews.com/nfl/article/2009-10-14/10-pack-trades-should-be-made-before-deadline4. Titans should trade Jevon Kearse.Veteran defensive end Jevon Kearse was a healthy scratch on Sunday night for the Titans. Upset by the news, he left the stadium.Though coach Jeff Fisher won't fine him, Fisher should put him on the block and send him to the highest bidder.It'd be very interesting to see what Kearse could do as a situational pass rusher across from Elvis Dumervil in Denver. He'd also be a compelling addition to the rotation in Cincinnati.I wouldn't complain never hurts to have some extra passrush and we'll we're tied for 4th in sacks still area we could upgrade. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Can't say as I would be happy or sad about this. I think I'm actually ok with what we've got and having Michael Johnson getting those reps though. Quote
Ickey44 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Can't say as I would be happy or sad about this. I think I'm actually ok with what we've got and having Michael Johnson getting those reps though.Agreed. If we were having trouble getting sacks then I'd be all for it. Quote
COB Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 He's on the downward side of a nice career. The Eagles pretty much put him on the street, the Titans sort of felt nostalgic I guess. Only 3.5 sacks last year with that face-stomping sasquatch in the middle? No thanks. Quote

If we were having trouble getting sacks then I'd be all for it.Take away the 5 sacks from Greenbay and we are tied with 6 other teams for 19th,The preassure was nice vs the Ravens but Steelers & browns seemed lacking.

It can't hurt to have more pass rush! Quote

We don't want to bring in a veteran guy with a self proclaimed nickname to mess up our locker room chemistry. Quote
Pidge Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 The premise of more pass rush is of course a sound one. However, Kearse would not give you more pass rush. Quote
gregstephens Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 I'm not for disrupting this groove we got going on right now without some significant and guaranteed upside. I like the mix we currently have and it seems to be working, so...Why tinker? Quote

Kazkal Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Posted October 14, 2009 And would just be used in limited roles not going 3 downs...Just area wouldn't mind seeing upgraded because passrush had been most unrelieable thing on our defense its there some games completely gone others... Quote
HoTbOy Posted October 15, 2009 Report Posted October 15, 2009 Getting JKearse now for passrush, would be like when we got SAdams for run stopping...I just don't want any more players that have seen their better days... Quote
ArmyBengal Posted October 15, 2009 Report Posted October 15, 2009 I simply just don't think he will provide anything more than what we have on the roster right now and like I said before, I'd rather see a younger Michael Johnson work in that role. If someone thinks Kearse would be that person, fine, I would simply disagree and say I think he's living off his reputation from many years ago. Just my thought on that one...Weren't people actually calling Michael Johnson a Kearse clone coming out of college ?? Yeah, I'm good... Quote
HairOnFire Posted October 15, 2009 Report Posted October 15, 2009 Weren't people actually calling Michael Johnson a Kearse clone coming out of college ?? Yeah, I'm good... I keep waiting for Michael Johnson to make a big play. He's been close several times, but so far....nothing much. As for Kearse, I'm not very interested. However, I can't seem to forget how the Bengals, with Michael Johnson already on the roster, kept pursuing Greg Ellis...who has already produced at least 4 sacks for a bad Raider defense. Quote
SupaBran Posted October 15, 2009 Report Posted October 15, 2009 I will not hate on Kearse! Once a Gator always a Gator! But, I agree his best days are behind him! I'm all on board for the Kampman trade though!!! Quote

Seems effective enough for a rookie. Quote
