The Tennessee Titans are getting ready for a week 17 matchup with the New Orleans Saints, but their scouting department is busy laying the groundwork for the 2026 NFL draft. At this point, which selections they will have is unknown, but they are likely to sit within the Top 10 in the first round. 

This offseason, the Titans must continue to build around rookie quarterback Cam Ward, who has established himself as a future leader of the organization. With needs at cornerback, edge, and wide receiver, they could use as much draft capital as possible. 

With college bowl season underway, Titans scouts have one final significant opportunity to evaluate top prospects in live game settings. They will continue their evaluations on Saturday when a whopping eight bowl games are scheduled. While we won’t completely dissect them all, we will hit a lot of prospects to keep in mind. 

Here is a quick breakdown of the players the Titans should have their eyes on today.

Pinstripe Bowl: Penn State vs. Clemson

Player spotlight: Penn State Edge Dani Dennis-Sutton

The Titans will definitely be in the market for help at the edge; the only question is what type of edge player the incoming staff is searching for. Dennis-Sutton did not meet expectations in 2025, but has the size and physical tools teams look for at the position. 

At this point, Dennis-Sutton’s projection is based more on potential than production. Still, general manager Mike Borgonzi rolled the dice on edge Femi Oladejo in 2025 and may take the same approach in 2026. Dennis-Sutton is not as athletic as Oladejo, but he plays physical at the point of attack and has a non-stop motor. He may be stiff and may not test well, which could affect his draft stock, but he should still project as a Day 2 pick.

Other players of note:

Penn State OL Olaivavega Ioane

Penn State OT Drew Shelton

Penn State RB Nicholas Singleton

Penn State RB Kaytron Allen

Penn State DT Zane Durant

Clemson DT Peter Woods

Clemson Edge T.J. Parker 

Clemson CB Avieon Terrell

Clemson OT Blake Miller

Pop-Tarts Bowl: Georgia Tech vs. BYU

Player spotlight: Georgia Tech OL Keyland Ratledge

Tennessee may look at the interior of the offensive line at some point in the 2026 NFL draft. With Kevin Zeitler a free agent and rookie Jackson Slater an unknown commodity, the Titans may look to the draft to add some competition and depth to the unit. 

Ratledge is a leader in Tech’s offensive line and has been a significant factor in the success of their rushing attack. A mauler, he may need to work on his technique when he gets to the NFL, but his natural size and demeanor are traits that will have line coaches pounding the table. 

Other players of note:

Georgia Tech RB Jamal Haynes

Georgia Tech DT Jordan van den Berg

Georgia Tech CB Ahmari Harvey

Georgia Tech DB Rodney Shelly

BYU WR Chase Roberts

BYU OT Isaiah Jatta

BYU OT Andrew Gentry

Gator Bowl: Virginia vs. Missouri

Player spotlight: Missouri Edge Zion Young

Young is another edge prospect who could fit the Titans’ current edge profile. At 6-foot-5, 262 pounds, he isn’t the most explosive edge in this class, but he is dominant at the point of attack, and a run-stuffing force on the edge, and plays with a non-stop motor. 

He may not be a franchise-altering prospect, but he is a powerful player with a starting-caliber floor and the ability to make an impact. 

Other players of note:

Virginia OT Monroe Mills

Virginia LB Mitchell Melton

Virginia CB Emmanuel Karnley

Missouri OT Cayden Green

Missouri C Connor Tollison

Missouri WR Kevin Coleman Jr. 

Missouri TE Brett Norfleet

Missouri WR Marquis Johnson

East Carolina WR Jaquaize Pettaway
