2. Nelson Agholor

Speaking of deep threat receivers, Nelson Agholor is once again headed for free agency.

Agholor has largely been underwhelming in his NFL career, but he seemed to hit a resurgence after signing a one year deal with the Raiders in 2020. Agholor produced a career-best 896 receiving yards for Vegas in 2020, with a whopping 18.7 yards per catch.

The Titans have not had a receiver like Agholor who can take the top off of a defense in quite some time. Adding Agholor would mean he would receive the snaps that have been given to guys like Cameron Batson and Kalif Raymond in the past.

A common flaw that seems to plague Agholor and Higgins, which is that both struggle to be consistent and often deal with nagging injuries. Still, when he is on the field he has shown flashes of being a useful player and if you are looking for a bargain he makes sense.

Agholor is coming off of a 1 year deal for slightly over $1 million. Due to his performance in 2020, he should be expecting a substantial raise in 2021. But due to his inconsistency, Agholor should still be in the affordable range for the Titans.
