The Titans have shifted their primary focus of first-round picks toward offensive players. While they’ve had some hits and misses, nobody stands out more than the team’s all-time third-leading rusher. With 7,965 yards, Johnson trails Earl Campbell (8,574 yards) and Eddie George (10,009 yards) for that top spot.

We’ll see if Johnson gets another season to add to those totals, eventually passing Campbell for the No. 2 spot. Another player to keep an eye on: Kendall Wright. The second-year pro has shown great potential. His best performance came against three-time Pro Bowl cornerback Patrick Peterson.

Other Offensive Picks: Kevin Dyson (1998), Vince Young (2006), Kenny Britt (2009), Jake Locker (2011), Kendall Wright (2012), Chance Warmack (2013)
