Mike Borgonzi may command even more than this, but getting that 2027 first in a potentially historic class is crucial. Furthermore, the Titans still landed a premium edge rusher in Rueben Bain Jr. with the fourth selection.<\/p>\n<p>Round 2 (No. 33 overall): Chris Bell, WR, Louisville<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Calvin Ridley is a potential offseason salary cap casualty. Chimere Dike and Elic Ayomanor are playing like future solutions, but the Titans will need to acquire at least two starting-caliber receivers if they cut Ridley. Chris Bell is enjoying a big-time season at Louisville. Bell is a physical, sturdy receiver who excels at making plays after the catch.<\/p>\n<p>Round 3 (No. 65 overall): Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">If you watch the Titans on Sundays, you know cornerback is a massive offseason need. Jalyn Armour-Davis and Barrell Baker Jr. are temporary solutions for a terrible team that traded Jarvis Brownlee and Roger McCreary. Furthermore, the Titans probably will cut L\u2019Jarius Sneed this offseason. Chris Johnson is a small-schooler out of San Diego State who is generating top-64 buzz.<\/p>\n<p>Round 3 (No. 69 overall): Jam Miller, RB, Alabama<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Titans address running back with the extra selection acquired from the Browns. Tony Pollard is another potential offseason casualty. If the Titans move on from Pollard, they\u2019ll need another back to pair with Tyjae Spears and Kalel Mullings. Alabama\u2019s Jam Miller has terrific explosiveness with good contact balance. He\u2019s a physical runner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Round 1 (No. 4 overall): Rueben Bain Jr., EDGE, Miami trade: Titans acquire No 4, 2026 third-round pick&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":517198,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[7,6,15,2414,12322,2413],"class_list":{"0":"post-517197","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl-draft","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-nfl","10":"tag-nfl-draft","11":"tag-tennessee-titans-draft","12":"tag-tennessee-titans-mock-drafts","13":"tag-tennessee-titans-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115531111799549055","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517197","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=517197"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/517197\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/517198"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=517197"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=517197"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=517197"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
