Take a mental break and look at Tennessee Titans picks in a few 2020 NFL Mock Drafts

Say what you want about their credibility or their accuracy, the mocks on WF are constantly updated and give plenty of information on the players in those mocks.
However, this is the biggest miss so far. Let me jump into it:
Trey Adams OT, Washington
"Remember when the Titans passed on Laremy Tunsil for Jack Conklin? That turned out to be a huge mistake by general manager Jon Robinson given the way Tunsil and Conklin have played. The Titans declined to pick up the fifth-year option on Conklin because his play has been disappointing over the past couple of seasons. Conklin could leave in free agency, but even if he’s re-signed, the Titans could draft more offensive line help with Conklin moving inside where he probably should have been playing since being drafted. Adams missed the majority of 2018 with a back injury but returned to the field late in the year. In the first half of the 2017 season, Adams went out for the year after a torn ACL. Sources stated they didn’t think that the torn ACL would have kept Adams from being a first-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, similar to Cedric Ogbuehi in the 2015 NFL Draft."
Couple things.
First of all, the Dolphins were rumored to be actively trying to trade for Trent Williams to move Laremy Tunsil somewhere else…so.
Secondly, it isn’t that Jack Conklin is bad. He was rushed back from an ACL injury and struggled to anchor in pass protection which led to other problems. From everything we have seen from him in the preseason, that is no longer an issue.
Finally, with Conklin and Dennis Kelly on the roster why on Earth would they let both of them go to spend a first round pick on an offensive tackle who:
-Has back problems
-Tore his ACL in 2017
-Would have to switch from left, to right tackle.
The answer is that they wouldn’t.
