NFL history suggests Titans’ free agency splurge will lead to wins

· Yahoo Sports

Over a week into NFL free agency, the rapid signings have slowed as teams plan for the NFL Draft. The Tennessee Titans entered free agency with the second-most cap space (behind the Las Vegas Raiders) and proceeded to spend the most in total contract value ($318,292,500), per Spotrac. They have also signed the second-most players (19) to date, trailing only the Miami Dolphins' 21 signings.

The Titans have been ranked among the top 10 biggest spenders in free agency the last two offseasons, but they have only had six wins to show for it. However, their spending spree this offseason suggests future success based on recent NFL history.

3+ Win Increase has followed the biggest free agency spenders

Since 2019, every team that led the NFL in free agent spending has increased its win totals by at least three games the following season. This means it is safe to bet that the Titans will win at least six games next season, as they have spent the most by $29,285,000 ahead of the second biggest spender, the Las Vegas Raiders.

Not only did the Titans spend the most, but they also added players to solidify weaknesses and bring familiarity to their new coaching staff. This was a similar blueprint the New England Patriots followed last season after adding former Titans coach Mike Vrabel.

Of the seven teams to increase their win total by at least three games since 2019, six of them reside in the same conference as the Titans, the AFC. Nothing is guaranteed in the NFL, but if their additions translate the way history suggests, this offseason could mark the turning point for the Titans' franchise.
