There\u2019s going to be lots of debate over his arm length and positional value. Bain has responded to the criticisms by putting forth elite performances on a national stage. The Titans desperately need to address the EDGE position this offseason.<\/p>\n<p>Round 2 (No. 35): Malachi Fields, WR, Notre Dame<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Wide receiver is the other big-time need on the Titans roster. Notre Dame wideout Malachi Fields is a big-bodied wideout with prototype X-receiver abilities. The 6-foot-4 and 223 pound senior has scored five touchdowns apiece in the previous three seasons at Notre Dame and Virginia.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Round 3 (No. 66): D\u2019Angelo Ponds, CB, Indiana<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The Titans need to acquire multiple cornerbacks this offseason. Indiana\u2019s D\u2019Angelo Ponds is a pro-ready corner who can contribute right away. Ponds is athletic and competitive with a playmaking streak.

The running back position remains in-flux heading into free agency and the NFL Draft. Wake Forest running back Demond Claiborne rushed for nearly 2,000 yards and 21 touchdowns across 2024-25. Claiborne is shifty and explosive with NFL-caliber burst.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Tennessee Titans ended up clinching the No. 4 overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft.
