5. Tennessee Titans (via LAR)

Dick LeBeau is an old coach who knows the game of football inside and out. He also knows his vaunted 3-4 defense isn’t going to function at its highest level until the Tennessee Titans get serious about adding quality defensive backs to the roster. Namely at the cornerback position. Opponents often had a field day against their secondary, forcing constant changes to personnel trying to find stability. <p>Sometimes the best thing to do is just go get a top option in the draft. Marshon Lattimore has separated himself from what is a strong cornerback class this 2017 off-season. Scouts are falling in love with his athleticism and mirror ability. Lattimore can play constant press coverage and can stay in the hip pocket of a receiver all over the field. As he continues to gain experience (he was a one-year starter) he’s bound to only get better.</p>. CB. Ohio State. Marshon Lattimore . 5. player. 35
