Tennessee Titans: Popular 1st Round Selections – Combine Results
By Max Dambach
Vita Vea, DL, Washington
40 Yd. Dash: 5.10 seconds
Bench Press: 41 reps
Vert. Jump: NA
Broad Jump: NA
3 Cone: NA
20 yd. Shuttle: NA
Notes: Vea was an extremely popular selection for the Titans earlier in the year. He has been compared by many to Dontari Poe, since his speed and agility at nose tackle makes him a pass-rushing threat while also being able to clog up running lanes in the middle of the defense. Vea would certainly be a formidable presence alongside Jurrell Casey, but he has since risen up many draft boards and is often mocked to teams like the Dallas Cowboys. He pulled a hamstring on his freakish 40 yard dash and will finish up testing on his pro day, but his strength, speed, and measurables displayed in Lucas Oil Stadium may have pushed him up draft boards too high for Tennessee to select him at No. 25.
