The NFL Owners Meetings are kicking off, marking the start of the final stretch before the NFL draft in Pittsburgh on April 23-25.
With this, many outlets, including Titans Wire, have marked the event with a complete seven-round mock draft for the Tennessee Titans, examining which prospects may have caught the eye of Mike Borgonzi and Robert Saleh throughout the pre-draft process.

The latest analyst to do this is Matt Miller of ESPN, and this is what he came up with in his latest seven-round mock draft
Day 1 – Thursday, April 23
This selection could be the key to the Titans’ draft, as it will lay the foundation for how the team attacks its final eight picks. By most accounts, this is a three-horse race among Jeremiyah Love, Rueben Bain, and David Bailey, with Love and Bain the two who have been gaining momentum.
First round, Pick 4. Tennessee Titans – Jeremiyah Love, RB, Notre Dame
Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears are solid running backs, but not the game-changing options needed to support second-year quarterback Cam Ward. Love is a rare RB prospect with home-run speed, as shown by his multiple 90+-yard touchdown runs, and he has finishing power at 214 pounds. He’s also a seasoned route runner and proven pass catcher with 63 career grabs for six scores. The Titans checked enough boxes in free agency and by trading for Jermaine Johnson to make a luxury pick here. Love has the tools to be one of the NFL’s best running backs very quickly.
In this mock, Miller goes with Love, which would give Brian Daboll and Cam Ward another weapon. But the selection does raise some questions about positional value and whether the Titans are in a position to select a running back early.

Day 2 – Friday, April 24
With Miller having the Titans selecting Love in the first round, there are a few paths they could take on Day 2. Tennessee still needs to bolster the interior of its offensive line, add edge depth, and add some weapons for Ward.
Second round, Pick 35. Tennessee Titans – Chase Bisontis, G, Texas A&M
Tennessee needs an immediate starter on the interior, with guard Kevin Zeitler a free agent and center Lloyd Cushenberry III being released. Bisontis played right guard and right tackle before settling in at left guard. He has the versatility to start out of the gate at right guard opposite former first-round pick Peter Skoronski.
Third round, Pick 66. Tennessee Titans – Chris Bell, WR, Louisville
Let’s help Cam Ward by drafting a big-play receiver. Bell would have gone off the board much earlier were it not for a late-season ACL injury. The 6-foot-2, 222-pounder will remind fans of a young A.J. Brown in terms of play style and physicality.
Miller addresses two of those with Chase Bisontis and Chris Bell. Of the two, Bell may be a bit more of a concern coming off his ACL injury, but Mike Borgonzi looked past a similar injury in the third round in 2025 with the selection of safety Kevin Winston Jr., who suffered a torn ACL at Penn State and missed the majority of his final college season. In Bell’s case, with the injury occurring later in the season, there are questions about how much of an impact he could have as a rookie, and whether or not that would be a risk Borgonzi is willing to take

Day 3 – Saturday, April 25
After spending the first two days of the draft focused on the offense, Miller has the Titans adding some depth pieces on both offense and defense on the final day of the draft.
Fourth round, Pick 101. Tennessee Titans: Kamari Ramsey, S, USC
Fifth round, Pick 142. Tennessee Titans (from NYJ via BAL): Bryce Boettcher, LB, Oregon
Fifth round, Pick 144. Tennessee Titans (reacquired from LAR): Nate Boerkircher, TE, Texas A&M
Sixth round, Pick 184. Tennessee Titans: Tacario Davis, CB, Washington
Sixth round, Pick 194. Tennessee Titans (from BAL via NYJ): Fa’alili Fa’amoe, OT, Washington State
Seventh round, Pick 225. Tennessee Titans (from KC via DAL): Nick Barrett, DT, South Carolina
The Titans finally address the defense with a safety, a cornerback, a linebacker, and a defensive tackle, but fail to address the need at the edge. The Titans do have Femi Oladejo returning for a second season after being limited to six games as a rookie, but neglecting the edge position seems to be a bit of a miss. Offensively, the addition of another offensive tackle and a tight end, but also neglected a significant need at center.
There is no doubt the Titans need to add depth across their roster, and these players will help, but addressing some of the weaker areas, even with a few flyers, might have paid bigger dividends.
