The 2026 Panini Senior Bowl wrapped up its trio of practices on Thursday. The Senior Bowl game will occur this weekend, but it\u2019s the practice sessions that deliver the most notable takeaways. The Tennessee Titans were present in Mobile to collect the necessary data.<\/p>\n
General manager Mike Borgonzi is projected to enter the 2026 NFL Draft with a number of needs to address. Wide receiver, EDGE, and cornerback are the biggest areas of the roster that require upgrading. We\u2019ve identified 10 prospects at positions of need who impressed the Titans at the 2026 Senior Bowl.<\/p>\n
Reggie Virgil, WR, Texas Tech<\/p>\n
Texas Tech wide receiver Reggie Virgil was among the standout prospects in attendance. Virgil\u2019s take-the-top-off speed consistently threatened defensive backs vertically. He deserves more attention after producing 1,521 yards and 15 touchdowns over the previous two seasons.<\/p>\n
Colton Hood, CB, Tennessee<\/p>\n
One-on-one reps always favor the offense. Tennessee Volunteers cornerback Colton Hood is among the highest-ranked prospects in attendance. If Hood is available at No. 35 overall, he should be on the Titans\u2019 shortlist of potential picks.<\/p>\n
Derrick Moore, EDGE, Michigan<\/p>\n
Michigan\u2019s Derrick Moore routinely displayed his athleticism during pass-rushing drills. Moore exploded for the Wolverines in 2025, recording a career-high 10.0 sacks. His viral rep was running straight through Miami offensive tackle Markel Bell and his 340-pound frame.<\/p>\n
Zion Young, EDGE, Missouri<\/p>\n
Missouri EDGE Zion Young is another athletic pass rusher. Young also is a high-floor prospect as a run defender. He strung together some dominant pass-rushing reps through two practices after accumulating a career-high 6.5 sacks in 2025.<\/p>\n
Tyren Montgomery, WR, John Carroll<\/p>\n
D-III wide receiver Tyren Montgomery wrote the most heartwarming story at this year\u2019s Senior Bowl. A late invitee from John Carroll, Montgomery never looked outmatched. His performance possibly elevated himself into the Day Two conversation.<\/p>\n
Charles Demmings, CB, Stephen F. Austin<\/p>\n
The best small-school cornerback in attendance was the first Stephen F. Austin player in Senior Bowl history. Charles Demmings is physical and aggressive. Demmings is currently MCM\u2019s favorite underrated cornerback in the 2026 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n
T.J. Parker, EDGE, Clemson<\/p>\n
Clemson\u2019s T.J. Parker was probably the best-known EDGE in Mobile. Parker did not disappoint, either. His pass-rushing repertoire is a well-developed mix of power and athleticism with a long-arm move that allows him to deploy a variety of counters.<\/p>\n
Malachi Fields, WR, Notre Dame<\/p>\n
There\u2019s an excellent chance that Notre Dame wide receiver Malachi Fields is the first wideout drafted from this Senior Bowl class. The big-bodied wideout is well versed at making plays at all three levels of the field. Fields possesses a stout frame and understands how to out-muscle and out-position defenders at the catch point.<\/p>\n
Dametrious Crownover, OT, Texas A&M<\/p>\n
The Titans could draft an offensive tackle as Dan Moore Jr\u2019s eventual successor. Texas A&M\u2019s Dametrious Crownover was physical and aggressive during one-on-one reps. Crownover possesses a massive frame and he plays with effort through the whistle.<\/p>\n
Gabe Jacas, EDGE, Illinois<\/p>\n
Illinois EDGE Gabe Jacas possesses a pro-ready frame. Jacas set hard edges in Mobile as a run defender and also flashed in the pass-rushing portions. He should continue gaining momentum as a Day Two prospect.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 2026 Panini Senior Bowl wrapped up its trio of practices on Thursday.
