Las Vegas Raiders want to trade down in 2020 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans should make a move
By Will Lomas
Mock draft WITH the trade
19. CeeDee Lamb WR, Oklahoma
I don’t have to explain this one, do I? Arguably one of the best players in this draft regardless of position, CeeDee Lamb is a steal outside of the top-10 and getting him at 19 is worth the price of the trade regardless of any other picks.
Lamb checks all of the boxes that Jon Robinson looks for in a draft pick and his ability to get yards after the catch rivals A.J. Brown. Thinking about it, imagine having two A.J. Brown’s on the Titans roster to pair with difficult matchups like Adam Humphries and Jonnnu Smith. There isn’t a group of defensive backs in the NFL built to handle those four and even if by some miracle there is, then they better buckle up and get ready to try to stop a heavy dose of Derrick Henry.
93. James Lynch DL, Baylor
The Titans need an EDGE who can kick inside to nickel DT on passing downs and that is exactly what Lynch is at the next level. He is the perfect example of a player getting better every year and he doubled his production each year (or got as close as he could) in sacks and TFLs:
2017: 3 sacks, 5 TFLs, 0 PD
2018: 5.5 sacks, 9 TFLs, 2 PD
2019: 13.5 sacks, 19.5 TFLs, 5 PD
Give this man a chance to thrive on a line with Harold Landry, Jeffery Simmons and DaQuan Jones and watch him make the team better.
121. Amik Robertson CB, Louisiana Tech
The ideal slot cornerback, Robertson would come in and start for the Titans on the inside in year one. While he is short, you would never say that to him on the field because the next play he would be knocking your running back’s legs out from under him.
In just three years Robertson overloaded box scores with 4 sacks, 23 TFLs, 48 PBUs, and 14 interceptions you can see why the Tennessee Titans would love him based on their love for productive DBs (shoutout Kevin Byard). This is a no brainer and could have been the 3rd round pick Lynch wasn’t so good.
224. Michael Warren II RB, Cincinnati
Just a solid running back to play behind Derrick Henry next year and put his hat in the ring to earn the starting job in 2021 if contract issues don’t get settled between Henry and the Titans. MockDraftable has C.J. Anderson as one of his closest comps and I really like that, so just imagine this is like signing a cheap, young C.J. Anderson.
