The Tennessee Titans Re-Sign Lavelle Hawkins

PrintSo the reaction in this thread has been pretty awesome. The Titans signed Lavelle Hawkins to a 3-year deal yesterday. What does that mean to their long term plans of building the 2012 Titans? It is impossible to tell right now. We can speculate, but if that deal doesn't contain any guaranteed money, they can cut him at any time without any ramifications.
There are two very different schools of thought on The Hawk:
1. He is nothing better than a fourth wide receiver who will always be a back end of the roster player.
2. He is a Derrick Mason type who is going to blossom in his 5th year in the league.
It is more likely that the first scenario is the truth, but the point is he could blossom into a good receiver. He did have 47 catches last season. That is two more catches than Damian Williams, who most people think has a lot of upside.
Let's wait and see what other moves are made before we meltdown. I am going to be more disappointed than most people if we enter the 2012 season with the same receivers as we had in 2011, but it is way too early to assume right now that we will.
Save the meltdown for if the Titans re-sign Jake Scott. I will be the first one off the ledge if that happens.

I forgot how long it took DMas to break out.
You know, if the coaching staff likes him enough to keep him around, I can deal with it. I think he enters camp as our 4th WR (5th if you count Cook), and that’s assuming we don’t add another piece.
If he can keep playing well and leap frog Williams and keep producing, who knows.
"Do the Titans have a miracle left in them in what has been a magical season to this point? If they do, they need it now. Christie kicks it high and short. Gonna be fielded by Lorenzo Neal at the 25; he dishes it back to Wycheck; he throws it across the field to Dyson. 30, 40, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, endzone...touchdown, Titans! There are no flags on the field! It's a miracle! Tennessee has pulled a miracle! A miracle for the Titans!"

I like Hawk, he is good enough for a roster spot and thats all this contract seems to give him, no promise of more playing time
I watch the Music City Miracle every time I visit MCM just because I can
He's a fine depth signing
The guy has been with the organization for four years, had his best season in 2011, and I’m sure he’s signed to a reasonable contract to where they can cut him if he isn’t one of their top five wideouts.
Britt-Washington-New No. 3 WR-Williams-Hawkins …. Nothing wrong with that receiving core as long as Britt is healthy. They could even get by with the four guys they do have if Williams or Hawkins continue to progress.
Well, atleast we know Jake is has a good target in pre-season. The Hawk owns Pre-Season.

Only thing to make pre-season any better would be....
to have The Hawk come flying down in to the stadium with one of those jet packs on his back!!

Hopefully this signing takes us out of the conversation of adding a WR
Then we can spend our money on DEF and O-Line. That way we can get back to Titan football of the past. Even though having that kind of defense is impossible with the way the league is worked for offensive production.

I sent a stern letter to Mr. Adams stating such
By resigning Hawkins , you will be renewing a faith once lost in this organization. You are telling this fan base that we are not ok with mediocrity and we plan on making a super bowl run.
Mr adams listened and made it such. CAW CAW!

This is the worst part of Hawkins being resigned

Lets get some new dbs
Other than mcourty babs and finnegan(for community purposes) clean house. Hell mayne even say by to finny and get some new fresh blood in there. Mofos seem more worried about there money than getring a ring. I saw griffin at the club and ask him how good well be in 2011-12(this was months ago) he mumnled some nonsense about synergy followed by talk about his contract. Then he called the waiter over for more boozed and shooed me away. A large bodyguard promptly blocked me out and I was wisked away with only the sounds of griff doing body shots off a stripper/waitress. Worst bday ever

I stopped reading there.
May I introduce you to a player named Alterraun Verner?
Get to know him, I think you’ll like him.

Verner is pretty beastly. not gonna lie.
I think he’s better than JMac, but thats just me.
especially at breaking up the pass so there's no completion.
man knows when theyre going to stop.
