2017 NFL Draft: Top options for every top 10 team
Marshon Lattimore, CB from Ohio State:
It wouldn’t be shocking if Marshon Lattimore was taken before the Titans were on the clock. However, in my predictions, he should be on the board and he makes the most sense for the Titans.
This team doesn’t need to make splashes, they need to continue drafting by need or best player available. It may be too early to tell but I think Jon Robinson has done a nice job as the general manager of the Titans and this could be his best draft yet. He has 2 first round picks in this years draft and many more mid-round picks to follow it up with.
The best player on the board is Marshon Lattimore and he’s also a need. The coverage skills that Lattimore possesses is scary and he does with a great range of ball skills and hip fluidity. He’s the best cornerback I’ve scouted since Patrick Peterson was taken by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2011 NFL Draft with the 5th overall pick. Oh, the irony.
Mike Williams, WR from Clemson:
Grabbing a number one receiver for Marcus Mariota has to be on the “draft list” for the Titans. While I understand how good Corey Davis is, I still have Mike Williams has my WR1. Williams has the rare combination of size and ball skills to become a difference maker all over the field, especially in the red-zone.
He can make some incredible catches with his ability to create separation down the field. Not the most pure route runner you’ll see but again, what he does vertically with his size advantage is something that’s needed in Tennessee.
