I would say yes, BUT that means we have given up on Egnew and Clay.

Who cares... as long as we address the tight end position...

If you can get him for a 3rd round pick, that's a steal. Next year's TE class is garbage. This might be their only shot at a good one.

The Nashville Tennessean reports "indications are" Jared Cook has requested a trade ahead of Tuesday's deadline.
In the final year of his rookie deal, Cook is apparently amongst the legion of observers miffed at his usage this season. Cook played just 25-of-59 offensive snaps in Sunday's overtime loss, and has been a 50-percent player or worse almost every week since Week 2. He's been targeted only 41 times on the year. Although Cook's trade request is a strong indication he won't be looking to re-sign with the Titans this offseason, they hold all the leverage. He'll likely still be a Titan this time next week.

He's looking for a pay day and we've got to re-sign Fasano after the season is over. Two expensive veteran tightends is one too many. I'd say re-sign Fasano and draft a guy early if tightend is a big area of need for our staff.

Notre Dame has a tightend named Eifert coming out that looks pretty darn good, and I'd bet Fasano would be more than willing to show him the ropes seeing as how he went to Notre Dame as well.

Very valid point wkloiber in regards to the TE from Notre Dame, Eifert. The Titans are not trading Cook, so it really is a moot point.

That being said, I saw Jared play as he went to South Carolina. He is more talented than Eifert and he is not being used nearly enough by a Titan team that should look to use him more. He is a free agent after the season, but the young man has not put up the number to garner a huge contract. The Dolphins could sign him to a nice contract.

That being said, I could see the Dolphins going after Dwyane Bowe once he hits free agency and draft Eifert in the draft in the 2nd round.

I'd take Cook over Fasano. He's a seambuster who can run and jump like a receiver. He would open up this offense. fasano is extremely limited.

I like Fasano swerve. He a solid, all around TE. With all due respect to Charles Clay and Michael Egnew, I would sign Cook during the off season and let those 2 go, as Cook is a dynamic talent that would fit perfectly into what Mike Sherman wants to do.

I don't think Fasano is special & Cook, to me, has potential to be special. Egnew may intrigue Tenn a little. Clay is a stud athlete but it doesn't mean he's going to fit this team in the future.

I absolutely think Cook is worth trading for. Ireland is a tough negotiator too. Tenn doesn't have a lot of grounds to demand on when they have barely used & therefor have little proof of value. Im a believer in trading for a guy today who's shown he can play instead of drafting a guy tomorrow & hoping he works out.

I'm not Eifert's biggest fan. I'd take Cook over him in a heart beat.

WK, I don't see Fasano getting a huge deal. With the way the TE position is evolving, I'm not sure anyone will be willing to give him more than 3'sh million a year. I think you'll be fine paying both.

Fasano is not an All-Pro TE, but he solid in the passing game and is a very solid blocking TE. Him and Cook would make a very solid duo. And once again, the Titans have said they are not interested in trading Cook. Go get him once he becomes a free agent at the end of the year.

I think you are right as usual, Tony. Cook and Fasano would make a good pair of tight ends and make Fasano even more dangerous.

The NFL is not like baseball, teams that trade during the season are doing so out of desperation......so in that case let's be happy we're not seliing the farm for guys like Bowe and Cook.

I'm sure we'll evaluate Cook after the season, I doubt we'll seriously entertain bringing in Bowe at the price he'll demand.
