Titans are paying Dan Moore $82 million to learn what the Steelers already knew

The Tennessee Titans signed offensive tackle Dan Moore to a four-year contract in free agency worth $82 million. Moore was added as a high-price addition to help protect Cam Ward's blind side. He failed to do that adequately in his first showing, a 20-12 Week 1 defeat to the Denver Broncos.

Moore is tied for the 13th-highest average annual salary among offensive tackles. It was a big-time gamble by general manager Mike Borgonzi as one of the decisions his first offseason will be judged on. Drafting Ward was the decision that Borgonzi's tenure will be defined by, but the sizable contract given to Moore looks far more questionable.
