The sad thing is that Collins isn't close to as good as Young is. I'd say that Collins is very, very close to the end and their plan A is probably going to be someone besides Collins.

I really think it was a decision not made based on abilities but more on personalities. Look at the Titans W-L record with Young as a starter. Now look at it with Young on the bench or on IR. It's not even close. IMO Jeff Fischer/Bud Adams ruined Young's career.

If anyone wants to dig up the posts on TSC or the original TS back when Young was drafted I'm fairly certain I bashed taking him so high saying he will not be a good QB in the NFL. While he has been unconventional, what is clear is that this dude is a winner. The Titans aren't making this move based on his physical abilities, that's for sure.
My problem with this is that Jeff Fisher has ruined Young mentally. Throughout Young's career, every time he slipped even a little bit he was pulled for Kerry. Fisher, for whatever reason, hated Young since he got to Tennessee. He was always looking for any reason to pull him. How is a young QB supposed to build confidence when he has someone starring over his shoulder that will pull him the second he does even the slightest thing wrong. You don't see any other young QBs get that treatment.
It's really weird to look back at the 2006 NFL Draft and see that every QB taken in the first round that year (Young, Cutler, and Leinart) are no longer a part of the organization that drafted them just 4-5 years later. Meanwhile both second round QBs (Kellen Clemens and Tavaris Jackson) will probably remain with their teams.
Who has a better shot at another starting job in his career - Leinart or Young?

Any predictions on where he ends up?
Arizona? Minnesota? Miami? Oakland? San Francisco?
The starting QB jobs are out there.

I bet we see Young in Minnesota next year. Would love to see a training camp competition between him and Joe Webb.

Vince is due a roster bonus on the 10th day of the next league year. As soon as that league year starts (which could be delayed due to a lockout) I bet he is just released on day 9.
