Fans, media react to Titans signing Andre Dillard

The Tennessee Titans made their first signing of free agency on Monday when the team reportedly agreed to terms with offensive tackle Andre Dillard.

The deal between Dillard and the Titans is a three-year pact worth $29 million, per NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. However, we don’t have the exact breakdown with guaranteed money and whatnot, so it’s hard to say exactly how locked in the Titans are with the 26-year-old.

Putting the contract aside for now, Dillard figures to take over at left tackle in 2023 after the Titans cut Taylor Lewan and figure to let Dennis Daley walk.

There’s no question that Dillard has shown promise during his career in his limited opportunities, but the jury is still very much out on him as a full-time starter considering he’s only made nine starts during his career.

Knowing that, I don’t think this precludes the Titans from taking a left tackle at No. 11 overall, but I do think it prevents Tennessee from reaching for a guy they may not love out of desperation.

But, we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it. For now, let’s take a look at the reactions to the signing from Titans fans and media in the wake of it being reported.
