Tennessee Titans fans can learn much from 2021’s NFL Draft class.
And just like that, the 2021 NFL Draft has come and gone. NFL-approved team ball caps have been distributed, Roger Goodell has been appropriately booed, tragic backstories of some of the prospects were needlessly shared courtesy of ESPN, and by the end of it all, the Tennessee Titans and the 31 other NFL teams walked away with exciting new players for their rosters while 259 different college athletes fulfilled their aspirations of making it to the league.
Tennessee’s eight draft picks (Caleb Farley, Dillon Radunz, Monty Rice, Elijah Molden, Dez Fitzpatrick, Rashad Weaver, Racey McMath, and Brady Breeze) were the choices.
Tennessee selected three defensive backs, two wide receivers, an offensive tackle, a defensive end, and a linebacker, all of whom tell a story of how the Titans view themselves heading into the 2021 season.
What general manager Jon Robinson, head coach Mike Vrabel, and the rest of the Tennessee Titans organization did is telling. They’ve painted a broad picture of what the men in the front office identified as important. They’ve given us hints as to how ready Robinson and Vrabel think their roster is to compete for a Super Bowl. they’ve even given us more information on what traits take priority when identifying a prospect.
The lessons to take away from a draft can be limitless, but in 2021, four stood out above the rest. Here they are.
