Titans Free Agency Watch

Titans Players In Free Agency Unrestricted Free Agents
These players can be signed by any team without any compensation from other teams. The Titans also have no ability to match the offer prior to signing.
Guard Jacob Bell
Running Back Chris Brown
Wide Receiver Justin Gage
Wide Receiver Eric Moulds
Linebacker Gilbert Gardner
Tight End Ben Hartsock
Defensive Tackle Albert Haynesworth
Cornerback Chidi Iwuoma
Defensive End Travis Laboy
Defensive End Antwan Odom
Safety Donnie Nickey
Tight End Ben Troupe
Linebacker Rich Scanlon
Defensive Tackle Randy Starks

Franchise Player: Haynesworth has been discussed as a possible franchise tag candidate. The last Tennessee player to hold that tag was Blaine Bishop (1997). The label remains with a player until his contract expires or until he is released. A player with the franchise tag will be paid at least the average of the top five highest paid players at his position. He may sign an "Offer Sheet" with any other team, but his original team has seven days to match any offer he receives. If the original team declines to match the offer, compensation in the form of two first round draft picks in consecutive years will be awarded from the signing team.

Restricted Free Agents

The Titans have the chance to match any offer within seven days for the player. The team could also receive draft compensation depending on the tender given if the player signs elsewhere.

Kicker Rob Bironas
Safety Vincent Fuller
Cornerback Reynaldo Hill
Fullback Casey Cramer
Offensive Tackle Daniel Loper
Tight End Bo Scaife
Offensive Tackle David Stewart

The Titans In Free Agency
Team Needs

1. Wide Receiver: Inconsistency plagued the receiver position in 2007. The Titans will look to free agency to add experience and will attempt to re-sign Justin Gage.

Unrestricted Free Agents Available: Jared Allen (Kansas City), Mike Rucker (Carolina), Justin Smith (Cincinnati), Josh Thomas (Indianapolis)

4. Running Back: With Chris Brown on the market, the Titans will need to add quality depth to the position.

5. Returner:
The Titans would like to find a game-changing return man after being just average at the position in 2007.

As Craig Hentrich contemplates retirement, the Titans may be in the market for a weapon in the kicking department.

Unrestricted Free Agents Available: Jeff Feagles (NY Giants), Derrick Frost (Washington), Kyle Larson (Cincinnati), Scott Player (Arizona), Todd Sauerbrun (Denver), Matt Turk (Houston)
Restricted Free Agents Available: Dustin Colquitt (Kansas City), Michael Koenen (Atlanta)
