Justin Melo⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Justin Graver⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ are back to continue their Titans Training Camp Preview Series with the EDGE group. We start with an overview of the position and the eight players competing for a spot before looking closer at the top of the rotation. Which two open the season as the starters? What do they get from Dre'Mont Jones and Arden Key? Then, we talk through Femi Oladejo's contract standoff with the Titans and how important it is for him to sign before training camp begins. Next, we talk about our expectations for this group and the Titans pass rush specifically, and finally, we project which of these guys makes the 53-man roster and who gets cut. 0:00 Intro 1:34 EDGE Position Overview 8:36 Femi Oladejo Still Unsigned 14:37 Expectations for the EDGE Group 23:15 Roster Projection 37:23 Wrap Up  ------------ The Music City Audible is presented by Sinker's Beverages in East Nashville and Bluegrass Beverages in Hendersonville.
