For all the poor picks they’ve had over the years, the Titans have nailed the last three first round draft picks. Lewan is still a hothead, but he’s one of the best left tackles in the league and has been for the past two seasons. Conklin earned All-Pro honors as a rookie in 2016 and looks to be Taylor Lewan’s bookend for the next decade or so. I’ve run out of words to describe Mariota. He’s already a top 12 quarterback in the league and he’s just 23 years old. There is no limit for what he’s capable of, as long as he can stay healthy. Let’s hope that the Titans keep drafting this well in first rounds for years to come.
