Is this a trend with Tennessee Titans GM Jon Robinson, or is it an accident.

Tennessee Titans GM Jon Robinson was a fairly predictable drafter…or so we thought a month ago.

Now up is down, right is left, etc. However, one trend remains from the past few drafts with Jon Robinson and it is sort of a crazy one.

You may not have noticed, but Jon Robinson has used Day 3 picks to try and preemptively fix holes that were going to be major concerns the next year.

It makes sense when you think about it, the real impact players only come from rounds one and two, and MAYBE round three if you are a really good evaluator and have some luck. So why not go ahead and roll the dice hoping that you hit the jackpot.

Still look at this and tell me it isn’t a little bit strange:

2016 NFL Draft

5th round: Tajae Sharpe, WR

5th round: LeShaun Sims, CB

2017 NFL Draft

1st round: Corey Davis, WR

1st round Adoree Jackson, CB

2017 NFL Draft

5th round: Jayon Brown, LB

2018 NFL Draft

1st round: Rashaan Evans, LB

That is sort of strange right? Like down to the order of the positions, Robinson’s first pick on Day 3 (he has never had a 4th round pick) has been predictive of the first round pick or picks that the Titans made the following years.

So with that being said, the 5th round pick this year was Dane Cruikshank, safety.

Does that mean that safety is a major position the Titans will be looking at this year? I mean, if Bosa falls to them then I bet they would take him, but if that was a position they covet these are the guys getting the most publicity (that I could find):

-Chauncey Gardner, Florida

-Lukas Denis, Boston College

-Marvell Tell, USC

But it is still early and there are a lot of guys still fighting for that top spot. I don’t know if it is a real predictive thing you can use, but it is absolutely something interesting and something to watch throughout the college football season and in about 10 months.
