2. G Andrus Peat (New Orleans Saints)

The right guard position has been relatively underwhelming so far this season. Kevin Pamphile, who was expected to be the starter, has been out all year with a knee injury, and in his place, rookie Nate Davis and fifth-year veteran Jamil Douglas have been mainly awful so far.

The Titans could make a play on Andrus Peat, who is currently in the final year of his contract. Peat is considered the worst of the five Saints starting offensive linemen, and hasn’t really lived up to his first-round selection in 2015, but a change of scenery could help him out.

He at very least would be an improvement over Douglas and Davis, and even if he doesn’t pan out, I don’t expect the Titans to have to really spend too much draft capital to pick him up.

Peat is still a young player with plenty of potential, and a trade to the Titans could be what he needs in order to finally see that potential come out.
