1) Tennessee Titans: Laremy Tunsil OT, Ole Miss
The Tennessee Titans need an offensive tackle. Florida State’s CB/S Jalen Ramsey will be very tempting especially in a division with Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Allen Robinson and Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, but their offensive line was atrocious last year.
The hype that surrounds Tunsil is that of the best offensive line prospect since Joe Thomas. With a quarterback like Marcus Mariota they need to keep him healthy and an athletic lockdown offensive tackle will be huge for them, they really cannot afford to pass on this pick and I just don’t see them getting the offer they are looking for to make a trade.
