Should the Tennessee Titans really spend a pick on a player from the 2019 Supplemental Draft.
The supplemental draft is always a fun distraction in the summer, and I believe a potential playoff team like the Tennessee Titans can certainly find value there.
Take last year for example, I would have spent a pick on Sam Beal, not because the Titans necessarily needed a starter now but because he is a talented player.
Having said that, there is no way I would have given up anything nearly as high as what the New York Giants gave up, but my point is I think the supplemental draft is a great way of finding cheap talent that can help you now.
Very rarely do you look back on a team that spent a pick outside of the top-150 and think that they could have found a better use for that pick on draft day.
So with that in mind I think the Titans can use the 2019 NFL Draft as an insurance policy of sorts by spending a pick on Washington State safety, Jalen Thompson.
