27. Tennessee Titans
Projected Starter: Ryan Tannehill

Tennessee is in such a strange position under center. Ryan Tannehill was very good after the Titans traded for him, but the injuries caught up with the former Texas A&M star. He will be 35 years old by the time the season starts. The Titans now have two options to be his replacement after taking Will Levis in the second round. You may forget, they took Malik Willis in the third round last year.

First, let’s talk about Tannehill. There’s no guarantee that Tannehill starts the season in Tennessee. He is clearly a cut candidate, or at the very least, a trade candidate. There are a lot of bad quarterbacks in the league playing games, and if one gets hurt, expect the phone to ring in Nashville.

For now, we expect Tannehill to start the year in Tennessee. He might be able to get something out of this roster. Derrick Henry is still hanging on to superstardom. Treylon Burks should be better in year two (if he stays healthy). The AFC South isn’t exactly good (with two rookie QBs starting at the very least). The Titans could rise on this chart if only they get a little certainty.

However, there are too many situations that are a little rock solid to move the Titans up. It just seems like chaos in the QB room. Is Willis a cut candidate in year two? Will Tannehill move on? Is Levis ready after freefalling in the NFL Draft? Too many questions for our liking.
