Expected to make it: Van Jefferson, Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor

While not quite locks, something went horribly wrong if Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor, and Van Jefferson don't make the 53-man roster. Jefferson, who has had an unspectacular career in the NFL, is a solid depth receiver at best. He's the favorite to play early snaps at "X" unless Dike or Ayomanor outperform initial expectations.

The Ayomanor pick especially earned praise as the team's strongest day-three selection. The Titans also added tight end Gunnar Helm in the fourth round. The hope is that the Titans landed a trio of pass-catching contributors in a single round.
