2021 NFL Draft: Tennessee Titans 7-round mock
The Titans need to go all-in to build around Derrick Henry this offseason. That means taking some big swings in the 2021 NFL Draft.
As long as Derrick Henry continues to play at a high level then the Titans have a chance to make a magical run to a Super Bowl title. The challenge for Tennessee’s front office this offseason is surrounding he and Ryan Tannehill with enough talent to bring a title back to fans in Nashville.
The Titans have seven draft picks to work with to help achieve that goal. Tennessee has two picks in Round 6 to make up for the absence of a seventh round selection. Finding more playmakers on the offensive side of the ball will be a priority for the team’s front office. Landing another edge rusher and an upgrade at offensive guard would also be beneficial.
Expect the Titans to pick the best player available at almost every opportunity. That will certainly be the case in Round 1. Landing a potential replacement for Corey Brown at wide receiver should be a priority for Tennessee on Day One.
Wide receiver. Rondale Moore. 22. 35. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Purdue. player
Moore comes into this draft as one of the riskiest prospects projected to go in Round 1. There are major concerns about his ability to stay healthy at the next level. On the other hand, he was one of college football’s most electric playmakers when he was able to stay on the field for Purdue.
The Titans need to add more big-play options to help take pressure off of Henry near the line of scrimmage. That makes them a team that should be willing to roll the dice on Moore. If he pays off, they could come away with an instant star who can turn screens and other short throws into big gains.
There’s always a chance Moore could flame out due to injury, but the reward is worth the risk for Tennessee at No. 22.
