Derick Roberson, EDGE

Though it is nearly impossible to find any film on him, I have really liked Roberson and the promise he had coming out of college. When the Tennessee Titans gave him a predraft visit I got a little more interested and now that he is on the roster he fully has my attention.

I think people are really sleeping on the EDGEs for the Titans and I will continue to go on record saying that. They have Harold Landry and Sharif Finch who looked great as rookies last year, Cam Wake who is going to the Hall of Fame, Kamalei Correa who is a wildcard, and two talented rookies in D’Andre Walker and Derick Roberson.

Roberson has been doing well in pass rush drills (which is his forte) and he has gotten praise from Mike Vrabel for doing the little things well and his maturity. That is all very similar to what got Cam Batson a chance on the Tennessee Titans roster last year.

Really interested to see what his speed rush can do against guys like Andre Dillard and Halapoulivaati Vaitai.
