Biggest needs: DL, LB, WR

More of the same here for Tennessee. The Titans desperately need someone to come in and help Jurrell Casey. He is coming up on the 29 and the Titans need to start looking for ways to help him as he enters the last 4-5 years of his career.

Behind him, the problems at linebacker could be solved with a big game from Evans. I don’t know whether it was the mental part of the game the Titans were worried about or if they just like who they have starting, but Evans needs to be on the field.

At this point, even if they did what Alabama did with Evans early in his career, I would like to see it. What I mean is, Alabama used him as and EDGE and sub-package ILB which could give both Woodyard and Morgan/Orakpo snaps off to rest and recover.

Wide receiver is weird because if you told me tomorrow that the Titans were going to go with Taywan Taylor and Corey Davis as their starters I really wouldn’t have a problem with it. They would have to be used correctly and it would help if Marcus Mariota was in at QB, but either way I think they both have a lot of talent.

Could they use a 3rd guy who dominates in the slot like a Hunter Renfrow from Clemson, sure that would be nice. But how much do you pay for a guy like that, what sort of draft pick would you spend?
