12. Tennessee Titans (via CLE)

WR. Clemson. Mike Williams . 12. player. 35. Marcus Mariota was and should remain the focus for the Tennessee Titans. They wisely gave him a great offensive line first and added two bruising running backs in DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry. The only hurdle left for them to clear is finding him a legitimate go-to weapon in the passing game. Somebody he knows he can look to in crucial situations and make the play happen. With respect none of the current Titans receivers are equipped for that. <p>Being able to trade back from #5, collect extra picks and still land the best receiver in the class? That’s called winning. Mike Williams is exactly the type of target they’re missing. He’s got the size and length desired at the position along with the strong handed and explosive leaping ability that enables him to consistently win those 50/50 battles. He’s got enough speed to create some separation but will have to work on his route running to maximize it.</p>
