9. MyCole Pruitt, TE

The Tennessee Titans have three tight ends on this list and unfortunately, someone had to be ranked lowest. As you would expect, being the third most important tight end heading into free agency pushes you pretty far down the list regardless of what you offer the team.

It should be said that Pruitt is really good for the Titans and I expect him to be back because he is a really solid blocker who can line up inline or in the backfield and be effective. While not dynamic, he is effective as a receiver and has nice hands.

I expect that Pruitt won’t break the bank in free agency and some team (likely the Titans) are going to get a player that can do a little bit of everything, but who might not be quite dominant enough to move up the priority list.

Not to repeat myself too much, but Titans fans should be happy if he comes back because of his versatility and effectiveness, but he just isn’t a guy with massive upside that people will be clamoring for.
