Tight End: Delanie Walker

Since Marcus Mariota was drafted, Delanie Walker has never had a season where he had less than 800 yards while being healthy. With that in mind, there is no way that the Titans are going to do anything other than feature Walker a lot.

The ideal setup (which you can tell from my starters) is 3WR sets with Delanie Walker inline and Derrick Henry in the backfield, and a huge part of that is Walker’s versatility.

If teams play conservative and try to stop the pass with two safety looks, run the ball or run play action to really force those linebackers to be exactly where they are supposed to be.

When they crowd the box, take advantage of those linebackers by forcing them to cover Delanie Walker in space and then watch him rip off a long catch and run.

A true weapon at any part of the field, it is going to be exciting for Tennessee Titans fans to get to see Delanie Walker in action again.
