Using the PFN Mock Draft Simulator, we’ve crafted a comprehensive seven-round mock draft for the Tennessee Titans ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft. While the Titans are a more well-rounded team than many perceive, bolstering the offensive tackle position and adding depth at defensive tackle remain key priorities. This mock draft prioritizes selecting the best player available while addressing these needs.
Round 1: Olu Fashanu, OT, Penn State
While Joe Alt would have been the ideal choice, Olu Fashanu presents an excellent alternative in the first round. Fashanu’s talent may be underrated by the media, making him a valuable addition to the Titans’ offensive line.
Round 2: Darius Robinson, DT, Missouri
Snagging Darius Robinson at the 38th pick is a steal. Projected as a first-round talent, Robinson adds immediate depth and a relentless pass-rushing presence to the defensive line. While not a pressing need, his talent and potential impact are undeniable.
Round 3 – 7: Best Player Available
Rounds 3 through 7 focus on selecting the best player available at each position, addressing depth and potential future needs.
Late-Round Gem: Decorian Patterson, DB, UCF
One of the most exciting picks in this mock draft is Decorian Patterson. A projected third-round talent last year, Patterson impressed at Middle Tennessee State before transferring to UCF. His potential to develop into a starting-caliber player makes him a valuable late-round addition.
Conclusion: A Balanced Approach
This seven-round mock draft aims to balance addressing immediate needs with securing long-term value. Bolstering the offensive line with Olu Fashanu and adding a disruptive force like Darius Robinson strengthens the Titans’ foundation. The focus on selecting the best player available throughout the draft ensures the Titans acquire talent and depth at every position.
