2. Tennessee Titans (via SF)

The Tennessee Titans defense is starting to show signs of life. Certain pieces are slotted into play but something is missing. They still don’t have that definitive star-caliber player. At present they’re making due with a collection of good-not-great types. If they can secure that blue chip talent, everything else might fall into place. Most of the time that involves a premier pass rusher. Somebody who forces offenses to adjust. <p>That is what Jonathan Allen has done at Alabama. There might no be a player who is more consistent at doing his job than the defensive end. He’s tough against the run, shows plenty of quickness as a pass rusher and makes few mental mistakes. He leads by example and has done nothing but win since he became a primary starter in that front seven. This is everything the Titans could want in a defensive cornerstone.</p>. DE. Alabama. Jonathan Allen . 2. player. 35
